Do stay, Broomie! the name slipped out, and in his weakness he did not notice it 'Pamela knows that she was horrid! 'Dear Desmond, I will do everything I can for Pamela. 'And for father? 'Yes, indeed I will be all the help I can, repeated Elizabeth. Desmond relapsed into silence and apparent sleep. But Elizabeth's heart smote her. She felt she had not satisfied him.
'He seemed to be getting on with Broomie this afternoon? 'Magnificently. He always does. She's his sort. She writes to him. 'Oh, does she? The boy's voice was dry and hostile. He began to understand, or thought he did.
Well, why shouldn't I? I'm going to set Broomie on to some of the cottages in the village not that she'll want setting on but after all, it's I who know the people. 'But that's by the way. The point is why did father give in? Evidently because Broomie gave notice, and he couldn't bear the idea of parting with her.
'Well done, Broomie! was the boy's exultant comment on the tale of the codicil. The house after Desmond's departure settled dreamily down. Pamela, with red eyes, retreated to the schoolroom, and began to clear up the debris left by the packing; Alice Gaddesden went to sleep in the drawing-room; Mrs.

Well, I can tell you this if father does marry her, she'll rule him, and me if I give her the chance and everybody on the place, with a rod of iron. Desmond at first remonstrated. He had been taken aback by the sudden vision in the library; and Pamela's letters for some time past had tended to alter his first liking for 'Broomie' into a feeling more distrustful and uncertain.
She wants me to do some of the housekeeping and she has actually made father consent to my helping at the hospital every afternoon. Of course I am awfully glad about that. I shall bicycle over. 'But all the same it is very odd, and perhaps you and I had better consider what it may mean. I know from Broomie herself that she gave notice yesterday and now she is going to stay.
