So little do I mean this to make any break between us that--as I can quite realize it would be too much to ask that you should come to us at Barrow just now--I propose coming down to Monkshaven.

On her way home she encountered Garth in the High Street, and forthwith proceeded to acquaint him with her news.
"I've just been fixing up rooms at the 'Cliff' for a friend of mine who is coming down here," she said, as he turned and fell into step beside her.
