Well, Mr. Gage, said Harriet, looking up,
gpt
I heard something this morning which surprised me very much.
human
Really! said Mr. Gage, bending forwards;
gpt
I trust, nothing of an unpleasant nature?
human
Oh, yes! I was displeased too,
gpt
Can I be of any service?
human
Oh, dear me, George, no! said Harriet, suddenly.
gpt
The thing is past mending. Your plague of a groom has been making love to my Charlotte, and married her this morning.
human
Highly impertinent!
gpt
And so ridiculous--so imprudent! said Harriet;
human
Oh! Heaven knows how they are to live, said Mr. Gage, drawing his chair wonderfully near to Harriet;
gpt
Our affair!
human
I am so sorry about Charlotte, she said;
gpt
I am sorry, too, to lose Thompson. He understands his business very well.
human
It is very provoking. Such things are the last extent of folly,
gpt
In that class, certainly;
human
Well, but, George, what is to be done?
