The Firing Line

CHAPTER XXIV
13/15

Have you made any more friends ?" "Yes." "Are they respectable ?" "Yes," she said, colouring.
"Has anybody been impertinent ?" "Mr.Williams." "I'll attend to him--the little squirt!...

"Yes, on Sunday afternoons; I know nearly a dozen nice girls now, and those men I told you about--Mr.Snyder, Mr.Jim Anthony and his brother the artist, and Mr.Cass and Mr.Renwick."

"He has always been perfectly nice to me, Louis--" "Cut him out, Dolly.

I know the breed." "Of course, if you wish." He looked at her, convinced in spite of himself.
