Have you any property which could be attached?
gpt
Just at the present minute I have, he admitted.
human
I shall have a nominal title in a big building plot, for a day or two--or until the necessary papers can be signed.
gpt
You mustn't wait! she hastily ordered him.
human
You must get rid of it right this minute.
gpt
I'll burn it up if you don't like it, he heartily promised her.
human
What's the matter with it?
gpt
It isn't safe for you to have it an instant. I've wasted so much time trying to find Polly or Loring, so that they could warn you, that I haven't time to explain. Just get rid of it immediately--can't you?
human
I can do anything you say, he earnestly informed her, hitching his chair closer. There was only an inch left, but he took that.
gpt
You'll explain to me to-night what all this is about, won't you?
human
You may come, but you mustn't ask questions.
gpt
I'll be there as soon as I'm through here,
human
Not so early, she protested, panic-stricken,
gpt
I have a caller just now. You must hurry, Mr. Gamble.
human
Yes, I will, and he tried to hitch his chair closer.
gpt
You're telephoning from the house, then?
human
No-o-o-o! and he thought he detected a stifled snicker.
gpt
I left him with Aunt Pattie and slipped out for a minute.
