"I am not, Mrs. Gately, and I'm afraid I can't stop. I must be on board my yacht in an hour."
"Your yacht! Bless me, you don't mean to say you've got a yacht?"
"Well, it belongs to a friend, but we enjoy it together."
"Have you seen the bad young man who robbed you?"
"Yes; I saw him this afternoon."
"You don't say! Did you have him arrested?"
"No; I helped him get some things out of pawn."
"That's a real Christian act, but I don't think I'd have done it. You deserve to prosper. I wish you could stay and meet Luella."
"Some other time, Mrs. Gately."
