"Are you the new girl?" the stranger asked.
"Yes."
"I took you for Bella, the slavey. Sorry! Pleased to meet you."
"Thank you."
"Have you just come in from outside?"
"Yes."
"You didn't see anything of a gentleman in a big motor car?"
"No."
"I'm expecting my boy in one. He promised to call for me in his motor car to-night and take me out to dinner and supper," continued the girl.
"I'm rather hungry too," remarked Mavis.
