lucky she was talking to sensible
people. There are some girls whom
she might have frightened to death.
OF course. you don't believe a word
of it, I'm going to take you back

phone your people and we'll forget
all about this old horror"

right. You heard her description of
my room?"
"Flukel'' said Mrs. Elliston.

love it. 1t has only one little defect,
