Well, youll find all that coming back to you before
long. Im afraid Im alittle late for my engagement at the hairdressers. If he had
nothing to say,what was the good of saying it in three languages?
Am I expected, Maam, to say that Id be charmed by
anything thatYOUR butler might care to call me? Sam was glad when the train was

And all through the evening Sam kept confusing Mrs.
Beyond these relics was amodern window full of beautiful shiny shotguns. I shall get
on, if I can only beclear and resolute about it!
He felt friendly with such old-fashioned shops as
were left on St. Cant you ever forego the pleasure of catchingme in an
error?
Couldnt youhave enjoyed his highly British presence
by yourself?
He had never knownthat she could be so
fantastic.
She shrugged it off and shookher head, but she was
not angry.
At the same time, Sam complained, Hurd and your
friend Lockertarent essentially different.
Youd just go onsaying that hes a fathead, and Id
just go on insisting that hesgot a kind heart.

I was cross, last evening, she said to Sam. I can
stand meeting a couplehundred people at once, but not the entire British

All the women I talked to just looked likewomen.
He had never knownthat she could be so fantastic.
She seemed asstrange to him as the London audience at the theater. Its now done with
automatic punching-machinery, explainedLockert.
If Im not, isnt it really rather pleasant tobe
known as Your Lordship?
And Ive made the most terrific hit with
LadyOuston.
And your good lady ought to be able to get along
finewith the ladies here.
Certainlyis awful nice to have you folks here. Why
the devil dont they wear their coronets?
Certainlyis awful nice to have you folks
here.
Andjust what were these new things that Fran
confidently expected itto learn? Say, maybe we arentshoving over what we got left of
the old Series V on theBritishers, too! Does he think Im the kind thatll stand it? I
wonder if they do wear plush knee-pants? Sam raged within, Im not going to stand her
highhatting him likethat! Youd just go onsaying that hes a fathead, and Id just go
on insisting that hesgot a kind heart.
