Say, you've got a team there to be proud of, old top! Never again will I cast aspersions on it, or What's up? Why the the exodus?" "They're through. Come on home."

When I have a little time I shall write a book and entitle it, 'Locked Up for the Day; or All in the Name of Friendship." Emma beamed languishingly upon her listeners in order better to impress them with her unfaltering loyalty to their interests. "In order to clear my jailer of any unjust aspersions which unkind persons may cast upon her, I might also add that she brought me some luncheon.
