"I don't know. I do hate tell other people's secrets."

"Oh, yes, Geordie, that will be fine! You do that, will you?"
"Yes; suppose I telephone him now, and ask him."
"Go ahead, and then tell me what he says."
Geordie excused himself and went off to the telephone booth.

"Yes, I have," and Dolly looked demure. "Can't let you have all the fun, 'Licia."
