"Good-night, sir," I said so loudly that he almost dropped his candle, and I retired to my room, taking a chair by the fire, with a sigh of relief. After a while Ben and Veronica came up.

"Cassy, will you take these pins out of my hair?" asked Verry, seating herself in an easy-chair.

The gentleman's knowledge of English is limited apparently, for he doesn't understand that.
