Harry. I'm awfully happy now.
George. Why have you kept it so dark?
Harry. I didn't want to say anything till it was all settled. Besides, I've only known her six weeks. I met her when I was down in Shanghai....
George. Is she a widow?
Harry. Yes, she was married to an American in the F. M. S.
George. Is she American?
Harry. Only by marriage. I'm afraid she didn't have a very happy married life.
George. Poor thing. I think I'd take a small bet that you won't beat her.
Harry. I mean to try my best to make her happy.
George. You old fool, I've never known a man who was likely to make a better husband.
