"So they are, Pops! But, father, only think, Gladys has heard—"
"O Nona! You might let me tell father that! Gladys has heard—"
"About her book—"
"Her story that she wrote—"
"From the Society where she sent it, father, and he says—"
"Nonsense, Nona: a society is it, not he."
"Well, it says, father, that they'll bring it out—"
"Because she's made the little girl that died get well again instead—"
"Yes, because there are such lots of cripples in stories, you know, father."
"And of course Gladys didn't mind doing that, and now it's really taken and going to be printed."
