CHAPTER 3.
Why do you play in letters.
Because we are English.
Is it an English custom.
It is not an American.
Oh yes I remember you did mention.
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Eaton.
Can you recollect can you remember what day it was that we promised to go into the wind and not take shelter.
I cannot remember that we ever undertook to do that.
We are going in another direction.
To day.
And day after to morrow.
We often spell together.
We like latin.
How goes it.
Frederick and Harriet Beef.
Do be anxious about me.
We are not anxious about me.
No you were told to be so were you not.
We were not advised.
No indeed you were not.
Dear Mr. Colin Bell.
Do be gracious and come again.
Soon.
As soon as you like.
I do not know how to reply.
No you don't and I am so uneasy.
Not today.
No not at all.
Dear Sir.
Good night.
_Act 2._
Here we come to act two.
Australian papers.
Canadian papers.
American papers.
Dear Miss Millicant.
Do not be insulting.
You know very well that we have not conscription.
Were you surprised.
In states.
Or in territories.
My dear Milly. I wish you would come and tell me about Rigoletto.
Oh yes handkerchiefs
From Bonnets.
Good evening Mrs.
That is not well said.
Dear Gilbert. Remember me to your mother.
All the time.
Dear Mr. Lindo Webb.
I understand why you are not better liked. A great many people expect you to teach them English. You do so and very well. You might be married and have a wife and son. With these helping you to teach you could teach many more people English.
Then we can expect that you will change your place of residence.
We do not expect you to change your coat. No Englishman does. We understand that.
Young Bonnet.
We have been very much annoyed by the impertinence of Mr. Alfred Bonnet.
Little pieces of paper are suddenly burnt.
In believing a shoe maker you believe his father.
I do not believe his father.
Why because he does not dress well.
Dress well dress well.
Dear Mrs. Cook.
Have you any special wishes. Do you want to know about almond leaves and almond roots. Or do you refer to olive roots. Olive trees have large roots. I do not know about almond trees.
The rest of the time was spent in deploring the tempest.
Dear Mrs. Carlock.
I do not know the name. I have often been told that the easiest way to be believed is to examine every one. I have endeavored to do so but without success. Some people believe that they will be killed. By this I mean that they delight in teaching.
Some teach very well. Some teach in the north. Do not stay away.
Sincerely yours and not carelessly.
Walter Winter.
How do you know my name. I speak three languages spanish french and english.
Dear Mr. Cook.
How do you do. Do you mean that you are able to stay.
The rest of the afternoon.
I do understand a red nose.
Not today.
No not to-day. You see the explanation is this.
We will not be pleased altogether.
Mrs. Cook I ask of you do not come again.
Do you mean it.
I cannot understand Mary Rose Palmer.
I can understand explaining things to one another.
We were there and the almond flowers turned to almond leaves.
Dear Mr. Cook.
Come again.
Sincerely yours
Daisy Clement.
_Act 3._
In the country and for the country.
Dear Master. Do not say so.
You mean there is no such address.
I do not mean that I criticize. I do mean that the method used does not agree with me.
Certainly not.
Sincerely yours.
Harmon.
Why do you need a name.
I don't know. I like the point of Inca.
Do not see it everywhere.
I will not.
Dear land.
When I call away I do not mean that I wish the coal to burn. It is not necessary to tell me that the peas will suffer. They certainly will not neither will the pinks.
Thank you for using that word.
Dear me it is windy.
