"Good by, dear Paul," says Mona, very gently, impressed by his evident grief and earnestness. Then follows an uncomfortable silence. "No, indeed," says Mona, laughing. "But it surely wasn't English, was it? That is not the way everybody talks, surely." "I hardly think I follow you," says Geoffrey, in a frozen tone. "In regard to what would you wish your servants deceived?".
