“What does her father say to all this? How does he like young Gray?”
Miss Maggie gave another gesture of despair.
“He says nothing—or, rather, he laughs, and says: ‘Oh, well, it will come out all right in time. Young folks will be young folks!’”
“But does he like Gray? He knows him, of course.”
“Oh, yes, he likes him. He’s taken him to ride in his car once, to my knowledge.”
“His car! Then Mr. Frank Blaisdell has—a car?”
“Oh, yes, he’s just been learning to run it. Jane says he’s crazy over it, and that he’s teasing her to go all the time. She says he wants to be on the move somewhere every minute. He’s taken up golf, too. Did you know that?”
“Well, no, I—didn’t.”
“Oh yes, he’s joined the Hillerton Country Club, and he goes up to the links every morning for practice.”
“I can’t imagine it—Frank Blaisdell spending his mornings playing golf!”
