Win's serving a lot of cold, wet stuff on our porch, he announced.

Ellen's there, and the Macauleys, and Jord King has just driven up and stopped for a minute. He's got Aleck with him and he's pleased as Punch because he's rigged a contrivance so that Aleck can drive himself with one hand. What do you think of that?
human
Good work,

Did you expect Jord to keep Aleck, when he's got to have another man besides for the things Aleck can't do now?
human
Expect anything--of him.

Put down that murderous-looking thing and come along over. Ellen said you were here, and Win sent word to you not to bother to change your clothes.
human
Thanks--I won't.
gpt
Won't bother--or won't come?
human
Both.

human
Better keep away then.

I suppose that's a hint--a bull-pup hint.
