Have you been unwell long, my dear?
gpt
I have had a cough, and--and father does not wish me to keep a cough, because of mother.

You don't remember your mother?
gpt
No. I have a stepmother, you know, and two little brothers.

You will like being with your grandmamma and your cousins at San Remo. Your grandmamma is such a dear old lady. Do you know, the thought of being near her reconciled me to spending the winter abroad.

I am glad you know grannie, she said.

Your cough is very bad, I am afraid,
gpt
Mother's cough is much better, Dorothy said, hotly.

Jingle says so, and _she_ knows better than _you_ do.
