"Did they?" asked Judy, indifferently. "Well, at the last minute I thought I wouldn't go."

"Tommy, do you know where the gipsies are camping?"

Tommy waved her away.

"I can't take you there," he said, "I have promised I won't."

"'Nobody asked you, sir, she said,'" Judy's tone was withering. "I asked you where it was."
