"I do love oo, Zordie, and I will marry oo!" George held her fondly to his breast as though she were some precious fragile flower of which not a petal must be injured. "All right!" he answered gaily, though his voice trembled somewhat, "I accept! You shall be my little wife, Thelma. Consider it settled!"

Lovelace, hearing her, laughed aloud, whereat the little lady was extremely offended. "I don't tare!" she said, with pretty defiance.
