"Why-why, I don't just know what Is
the natter he faltered. But it seems
to be that she's-she's too bashful to be
married-right in front Of an alderman"
Mr.. Cornell's pity was overwhelmed by
his sense of humor He laughed until
the detected Countenance Of Schultz made
him ashamed Of himself
"Oh. now you go over there again and
tell her that there won't be any trouble
at all Probably she's only fooling any
way. Try again. my boy"
'"All rieht. alderman" said Schultz
but honestly / don't think she'll listen
to argument. It's mighty queer"
In ten minutes he was back again, more
detected than ever.
IT'S no use" he sighed She's too
bashful and that's all there is to it She
doesn't care to be married this evening,
and I guess she has the say about it,
