"The likes of us know how you rich people have a habit of bringing us into your parlors to make fun for their friends.
"Marian thinks her beneath notion. So would you, if " He pauses. "If she hadn't a penny you wouldn't know her," he says presently; "and you admit she has no manners, yet you ask me to marry her. Now, if I did marry her, what should I do with her?" "Educate her! Control her! Says his mother, a little viciously. "I confess I am not equal to the occasion. I could not manage a baby.
And you know she wouldn't wipe her feet on you," she went on viciously "she so grand with her yachts and her counts and 'Oh, I think I'll run over to Injya for the winter, or maybe it's Cairo or the Nile, says she!

Not a report floated back to the ears of the two men.
