Elinor slipped Judith's nervous hand into her muff within her own. Judith repeated her startling statement, adding that she had proof for everything she said. Her manner was so genuine and convincing that Griffin started up with a quick gesture of command. "Lands alive!" cried Miss Jinny, enjoying herself hugely in prospect.

I have seen for a long time that he loves you, and knowing his fiery temper, I did not wish to provoke a quarrel by telling him that you had promised to be my wife. But last night the truth was forced from me at dinner, and David declared that he intended to ask you to marry him." "Don't keep me hanging on here in the dark too long," protested Patricia.
