"But it's very uncomfortable," said poor Winnie, whose voice bore her witness.
"I find it so often."
"You, Governor! — you never do!" said Winnie energetically.
"Never do what?"
"Never feel like me."
"No, Winnie — I am strong and you are weak — you are sick and I am well. I have no excuse — you have, a little."
"It don't make it a bit better," said poor Winnie. "I don't want to make any excuse. I got so cross with Mrs. Nettley to- day."
"What about?"
"O I couldn't bear to hear her talk, and I almost told her so."
"I dare say you did what you could to mend it afterwards,
Winnie."
