Is Mrs. Gregory in?
gpt
Yes, sir, but she is in bed.
human
In bed! the doctor said, rather surprised.
gpt
Is she not well?
human
Don't you know, sir, she had a little baby last week?
gpt
God bless me! was all the doctor could say; for Sophy had not in her last letter, which, indeed, had been written some time before, made any mention of her expecting such a thing.
