"I didn't."
"You did. You said, 'What did you hear?'"
"Yes, but I did not know it was anything that Mr. Dashwood said."
"Why shouldn't I tell you what he said?"
"Oh, you can tell if you like. It doesn't matter to me. Where did you hear him say it?"
"In his bedroom, when he was packing his bag. Papa was with him; the door was open, and I heard him say it; and I heard papa say there was never a girl made but there wasn't a better girl made to match her, and that Mr. Dashwood wasn't to bother himself——"
"You needn't tell me any more."
"I can't, for Norah came, and I ran away."
"Where were you?"
"Listening at the door."
