21/43 What I want to know is, whether it would please you to go back to the old place again? You must say and think what you like, only just answer me the one question as I ask it--that is, honestly and good-temperedly. I shall have to take 'Arry away with me; I can't let him go to the dogs without another try to keep him straight. Alice 'll have to go with me too, at all events for a time. Whether we like it or not, she'll have to accustom herself to new ways, and I see my way to helping her. |
