"I ought to know something more about you than I do about schoolboys. And I think I do know a little about girls not much though. They puzzle me a good deal sometimes. I know what a great-hearted woman is, Connie." "You can't help doing that, papa," interrupted Connie, adding with her old roguishness, "You mustn't pass yourself off for very knowing for that.
"Perhaps she will never attempt such a thing again, now that she has been discovered." "I cannot trust her. I should never feel safe a moment. To have a thief about the house! Oh, no, That would never answer. She will have to go." "Well, Ella, you will have to do what you think best; but you mustn't be too hard on the poor creature.

I thought I should never see you again. And here you are, so generous, so kind!" "Hush, Gerald! Don't make anything of it. Of course I came. Keep quiet now; you mustn't try to talk."
Martha bent closer. "You never got that right, my lady," she returned firmly. "You mustn't get angry with me, for I got to let it all out." She was the nurse no longer; no matter what happened, she would unburden her heart. "Mr. Felix isn't like other men.
"No, we won't, Sam, if you'll come and help us do our gardens up."
