I can't tell you where I live!
gpt
In the name of heaven, why not?
human
Because--because--well, you may not understand this, sir, but I promised father I wouldn't tell any one where we live.
gpt
What?
human
I did, and I can't break a promise! David insisted.
gpt
You see, father was rich once, and he's terribly proud. He doesn't want any one to know we live in such a poor place, because somebody he used to know might hear of it and try to help him, and that would break father's heart.
human
His heart's in pretty bad shape, isn't it?
gpt
Frightful! said David.
human
And that's why I'll have to go now and explain to him and think it all over and----
gpt
Why think it over? Anthony rasped.
human
Isn't your mind made up now?
gpt
Of course it is, the boy said hastily.
human
Only I'll have to tell father and then come back here in the morning, Mr. Fry; only--_I have, to go home now_!
