I shall be wiping my shoes on your doormat at six
to-morrow.
I wish I had notstopped here to worry you with my
little troubles.
Benjamin usually sends hisadvice by the around the
corner route.
Then, after a moment, that door opened a little
way, and some onesaid:Carey, are you there?
Then, still cordial, but without the deference,
headded, Morning, Carey.
In regard to this proposed expedition of
mine.
Dain was such a wonderful judge of
character?
Benjamin usually sends hisadvice by the around the
corner route. A hundred years from now theyllbe going through Patagonia in

must have been that I was afraid you would come, hesaid, gravely. If Igo now I can
make the call or two I want to make and have myevening free. This is wash day and
Ive got troubles ofmy own.
I wasthinking of you when I heard you call
me.
I have been payingattention to my own
counsels.

Mother says you promised her you would come. Dont
sit there as if you were deaf anddumb. Im pretty sureyou and the rest are right.
Never mind; I am willing to try oncemore.
