"I see. You were perfectly willing to do that, were you?"
"Yes, sir, I was."
"You told her so, did you?"
"Yes, sir. She knew that."
"Well, when neither you nor she could find any one to help her, then what? What did you do next?"
"Well, then she wanted me to marry her."
"Right away?"
"Yes, sir. Right away."
"And what did you say to that?"
"I told her I just couldn't then. I didn't have any money to get married on. And besides if I did and didn't go away somewhere, at least until the baby was born, everybody would find out and I couldn't have stayed there anyhow. And she couldn't either."
