You shall go to visit Mrs. Beck at Ballerud. That will be pleasant for you, and as it is an inland country place, I shan’t have to be in constant anxiety about your falling into the sea.”,“Aren’t you glad to have it?”,“That’s tough luck,” said Bob, thinking that if he sympathized Jerry might let something fall which would be useful.
