"Oh, very well; only I wish I had known before I came up here at some inconvenience; and also wish Mr. Liddell could be persuaded that delays are dangerous." "The delay is not for very long. I am sorry you had this fruitless trouble. Mr. Liddell is very weak."
"Quite right" very gravely "only if I were you I should make haste and decide on the 'some one."

"I began to fear I should not find you, Miss Liddell," he said, with a pleasant smile. "I have been away for some time though perhaps you were not aware of it."
