It's in me here," and she thumped her nightgown above her heart. "I shall never be happy until I have seen them all. Oh! Dads, I wonder if you can understand; it it sounds so so silly " "Tell me," and the man moved over to the head of the bed and took his daughter gently in his arms.
His gay grin challenged affectionately the boy on the bed. "Don't you know you're liable to give the new firm, Dingwell & Beaudry, a bad name if you pull off insurrections like that? The city dads are talking some of building a new wing to the accident ward to accommodate your victims. Taxes will go up and " Roy smiled wanly. "You've heard about it, then?" "Heard about it!

Faither saith it maketh saucy rogues o' sons to know more than they's own dads." Nick wondered if it did.
To which Dads had replied: "Quite so, my dear, quite so! Personally I don't see how it could be otherwise. I agree with every word you say!" patting his red setter's head, which in the firelight he fondly believed to be his daughter's.
