I know he is an awfully good fellow, and would have made you very happy; but I don't feel like that with Forster.

There is nothing in the world that I should like better than to punch his head; and when I see that a fellow like that has cut Bathurst out altogether it makes me so savage sometimes that I have to go and smoke a pipe outside so as not to break out and have a row with him." "You ought not to talk so, Mr.Wilson.It is very wrong.

You have no right to say that anyone has cut anyone else out as far as I am concerned.

I know you are all fond of me in a brotherly sort of way, and I like you very much; but that gives you no right to say such things about other people.

Mr.Bathurst ceased his visits not because of Captain Forster but from another reason altogether; and certainly I have neither said nor done anything that would justify your saying that Captain Forster had cut Mr.Bathurst out.
