It's the life,
gpt
Must be, Lulu breathed.

I----
gpt
Where you been mostly?
human
Here, she said.
gpt
I've always been here. Fifteen years with Ina. Before that we lived in the country.

Poor old girl,
gpt
Is it Miss Lulu Bett? he abruptly inquired.
human
Or Mrs.?
gpt
Miss, she said low, as one who confesses the extremity of failure. Then from unplumbed depths another Lulu abruptly spoke up.

Which kind of a Mr. are you?

gpt
Not so many people want to know.
human
Go it, old girl!
