The American Senator

CHAPTER XV
8/13

Mr.
Twentyman is a very intimate friend of ours, and very kind to Dolly and Kate." "I wished so much to talk to you about the old days." "And I wish to go to your aunt, Mr.Morton; but we can't all of us have what we wish.

Of course I saw that you were very angry, but I couldn't help that.

Perhaps it was wrong in Mr.Twentyman to offer to walk with you." "I didn't say so at all." "You looked it at any rate, Mr.Morton.And as Mr.Twentyman is a friend of ours--" "You were angry with me." "I don't say that.

But as you were too grand for our friend of course you were too grand for us." "That is a very unkind way of putting it.

I don't think I am grand.
A man may wish to have a little conversation with a very old friend without being interrupted, and yet not be grand.
