at once, with OF without witnesses,
"Gertrude, did you see Us standing
outsideT
eyes, I saw you aud Mr., serwln, and
some gentlemen | expect you thought
we were making signals 10 you, and
your sense Of proprlety Is shocked, no
you're cross hut we were not, We were
npping for Clara Curtis you didn't see
her"
"But those other gentlemen, Gerty,
do you not know themT
"KnOw them !" answered Gerry I'VE
don't even know their names"
"Did you not promise to 90 out In a
boat with them
Certainly not "
"Gertude, think again II You have
acted foolishly, confess II, and tell me
how you we're led 10 be 40 thoughllesa
for II what they say II true, ] never can
-"
Indeed, Mr., Harwood, your insinn'
atonR are most ungentlemanly To
what conduct are you alludlngY
",rhat OF walking aud talking and
to strangers, and promising TO 90 boat
Ing with them"
"li that accusation II applied to me, ]
muat totally deny II but ] suppose you
will believe your friends rather than
credit my denial"
Aud hero Gerly'a tears came TO her
aid, Was she not tho injured partyY
They had not promised to 20 boating,
There she pinned her denial, which,
however, covered the whole question.
Tears were without avail, her Judge was
too much In earnest 10 DO moved by
tears--potent though they be some
times,
"derty, will you dony that You were
on tho promenade this morning|
"Yes, sir Did not tell you We in.
tended staying at home this morning 2
This certainly mollihed Mr.. Harwood.
He had not yet learned the stretching
capacity of"whitc lies, and felt inclined
to believe the assertion,
"But, Gerty, VIII Carlyon said that
he talked with you and Lizzie this
morning, and that you both promised to
90 boating
"Again repeat, il you choose to be-
lava their worl rather than mine, do 40,
and md T will say good.by"
