"I believe it; but Nora thought you had so much reason, that she would not come alone to make her apology."
The young man looked towards Mr. Randolph, whose attention was just then taken by somebody who had come to him on business. He waited.
"Won't you sit down, Mr. Dinwiddie." said Daisy.
"I must go."
"But I want to ask you a question, sir."
Mr. Dinwiddie sat down.
"Mr. Dinwiddie," said Daisy with a grave face, "what are my talents?"
"What is the question, Daisy? I do not understand."
