"She knows my pace," Mr. Flack remarked. "I should think she would, the way you raced!" the girl returned with memories of the Umbria. "I hope you don't expect to rush round Paris that way." "I always rush. I live in a rush. That's the way to get through." "Well, I AM through, I guess," said Mr. Dosson philosophically. |
