"What are we to do?"
"There is nothing to do."
"Are you going home?"
"I told her I would go back."
"It's time I started home, Jim."
"Maud!"
"Don't look so serious. You are in worse case than I am. I can laugh at myself and I doubt that of you. Before I go, promise me you will still come to Surprise. It's a sleepy place. You won't find things changed there."
"Yes."
"And now you have promised that, will you come to-morrow? A square promise, fair weather or black, a day's work to do or nothing on hand."
"Yes."
