"What you mean?" demanded Getz, impatient of all this mystery. "It's the daughter of one of this here Board that we're wotin' fur!" Mr. Getz's eyes moved about the table. "Why, none of yous ain't got a growed-up daughter that's been to school long enough to get a certificate." "It seems there's ways of gettin' a certificate without goin' to school.

"These I added for the sake of honour when I came to England," said Imam Din Adam smiled the ghost of a little smile that I began to remember, and we put him on the big couch for refreshments. Stalky asked him how much leave he had, and he said "Six months." "But he'll take another six on medical certificate," said Agnes anxiously. Adam knit his brows. "You don't want to eh? I know.

"You don't mean to infer," said Helen, with cold dignity, "that my mother would tell me a lie?" "All as I mean is that Susan was above thirty-nine five years ago, and I can prove it. I had to get her birth certificate when her father died, and I fancy I've got it by me yet." And his eyes added: "So much for that point. One to me."

The curate gave me the certificate of birth of his niece and the account of her possessions. As soon as they had gone I took my departure for Venice, full of love for the charming girl, and determined on keeping my engagement with her.
