There's the doctor's family, Mr. Dalton's, and one or two others.
Yet after that when he saw her in Dalton's car, her words would return to him, and gradually he began to think of her as sailing in a silver ship farther and farther away in a future where he could not follow. Little Sister was a great comfort in those days. She gave him occupation and she gave him an income. He was never to forget his first sale. He had not found it easy to cry his wares.
However, that is pretty far out of my line. I'm a blunt sort of person, but I well, I care a lot for you, Nina! I'd rather see you marry Billy Dalton, any day!" As Derby brought in Billy Dalton's name, Nina had a sense of flatness that she would have been at a loss to explain.
