“Oh, but you must remember you are a lawyer, and you must win whatever side you take.”
“If I find I am wrong, I would rather fail than win.”
“Then is that all that troubles you?”
“Oh, no,” Scott answered with a smile. “There was a very important case came before me to-day—or, let me see—I guess it was yesterday. A very much love-smitten youth by the name of Jones interviewed me for the purpose of speaking to me of my sister June.”
“Oh, dear! Henry Jones! I sent him a note only a week ago, refusing his attentions.”
“He is quite persistent.”
“I think he is; but is that all that troubles you? Tell me, truly, Scott, are you not troubled about Rene?”
“Never mind, June; we will not talk about her. I think she will return soon.”
“Certainly; she has not gone to stay.”
