"But oughtn't we to have gone to help find the elephant, father?" said Glyn. "No, my boy, I think not. You are my guests to-night, and we don't often meet.

They did not see; for a quiet chat was enjoyed for another half-hour, and then the Colonel walked with them to the Doctor's gates and said goodnight.
It was not a matter that he could handle fully in his despatches to the Monitor, being too intangible to allow of bald assertion, and he was reduced to indirect statement.

"Now I would that you would turn good Dane and Thor's man, and bide here with us; and then maybe " But Osritha rose up quickly and said that she must begone, and so bade us goodnight and went her way into the upper story of that end of the great hall where her own place was.
Polly knows the road as well as I do;" and she cantered off, saying cheerily, "Goodnight, deacon, I can't tell you how much I'm obliged to you. Please see Jim 's early 's you can to-morrow: I want to get settled and begin work." When Hetty reached home, the house was silent and dark: only one feeble light glimmered in the hall.

Well, since you love him so much, don't tell him so, my dear. But I must leave you; you are sleepy. Goodnight." And she went away, smiling. At length I was alone.

He's made us afraid to move because she's to be kept quiet; but he can't help chattering to her himself whenever she opens her eyes."

Kolia came to say goodnight, and, receiving his parents' blessing and a large glass of milk instead of tea, went off to bed.
