Why, he exclaimed in surprise,
gpt
Several minutes, and she turned to face him.
human
I waited until the carriage passed before coming onto the bridge. I took the foot-path from the hotel.
gpt
Oh, I see--from the other way. I was waiting in the trail below. You saw who was in the carriage?
human
Beaton--yes, quietly.
gpt
He expects some friends, and wishes me to meet them--Eastern people, you know.
human
You sent for me; there is some explanation, no doubt?
gpt
There is, she answered.
human
A perfectly satisfactory one, I believe; but this place is too prominent, as I have a rather long story to tell. Beaton and his friends will be returning soon.
gpt
There is a rock seat below, just beyond the clump of willows, quite out of sight from the road, he suggested.
human
Perhaps you would go with me there?
gpt
What trail is that?
human
It leads to mines up the cañon, my own included, but is not greatly travelled; the main trail is farther east.
