Now, she continued, after a pause,
gpt
Mr. and Mrs. Holman, said Lord Grayleigh;
human
They are my very own most special friends. They keep a toy-shop in Greek Street, a back street near our house. Mrs. Holman is going to buy a lot of gold out of the mine. I'll send her a letter to tell her that she can buy it quick. You'll be sure to keep some of the gold for Mrs. Holman, she is a dear old woman. You'll be quite sure to remember her?
gpt
Quite sure, Sibyl.
human
Hadn't you better make a note of it? Father always makes notes when he wants to remember things. Have you got a note-book?
gpt
In my pocket.
human
Please take it out and put down about Mrs. Holman and the gold out of the mine.
gpt
What do you wish me to say?
human
Put it this way, said Sibyl eagerly,
gpt
Lombard Deeps Mine,
human
Some of the gold in the Lombard Deeps Mine, repeated Sibyl,
gpt
Just exactly as you have worded it, Sibyl.
human
Her address is number ten, Greek Street, Pimlico.
gpt
That is nice, she said,
human
I am glad you're pleased about the Holmans, little woman.
gpt
Of course I am, and aren't you. Don't you like to make people happy?
human
Have you any other notes for this book?
gpt
Of course I have. There's the one who wants to marry the other one. I'm under a vow not to mention names, but they want to marry _so_ badly, and they will in double quick time if there's gold in the mine. Will you put in your note-book 'Gold to be kept for the one who wants to marry the other,' will you, Lord Grayleigh?
human
I have entered it,
gpt
And mother, of course, continued Sibyl,
human
I am afraid, Sibyl, I do not know who Watson is.
gpt
Don't you? How funny; he is our footman. I'm awfully fond of him. He is full of the best impulses, is Watson, and he is engaged to a very nice girl in the cookery line. Don't you think it's very sensible of Watson to engage himself to a girl in the cookery line?
human
I think it is thoroughly sensible, but now I must really go.
gpt
But you won't forget all the messages? You have put them all down in your note-book. You won't forget any of the people who want gold out of the Lombard Deeps?
human
No, I'll be certain to remember every single one of them.
gpt
Then that's all right, and you'll come to darling mother's bazaar?
human
I'll come.
gpt
I am so glad. You do make me happy. I like big-wigs awfully.
