"That," I said softly, "is a little question which George and I have got to discuss together some day." She walked to the door and then turned.

"A fellow's got a right to pray as he pleases," said Peter, "and if anybody tries to stop him he's bound to fight. That's my way of looking at it." "What would Miss Marwood say if she knew you were going to fight?" asked Felicity. Miss Marwood was Felix' Sunday School teacher and he was very fond of her.
