What do you want here?
gpt
I come down, sir, to see if you can tell me anything about Herbert Randolph.
human
What do you want to know about him?
gpt
I want to know where he is. He hain't shown up not sence last night.
human
Was he a friend of yours?
gpt
Yes, sir, me and him roomed together.
human
You and he roomed together?
gpt
That's what I said, sir,
human
I am afraid you are inclined to be stuffy, young man, replied Mr. Goldwin.
gpt
I am unable, however, to give you the information you seek.
human
You don't know where he is, then?
gpt
No, I have not seen him since he left here last night.
human
Do you know why he is stayin' away?
gpt
Certainly I do not.
human
Done nothin' wrong. I s'pose?
gpt
I have not fixed any wrong upon him yet.
human
Then, if he hain't done no wrong, somethin's keepin' him.
gpt
He may have a motive in staying away,
human
What do you s'pose his motive is?
gpt
That I cannot tell.
human
Foul play, that's what I think.
gpt
Nonsense, boy.
human
I don't think there's no nonsense about it. I know he wouldn't light out jest for fun, not much. Herbert Randolph wasn't no such a feller. He didn't have no money, n' he had to work. Me an' him had a room together, as I said, an' his things are in the room now.
gpt
When did you see him last?
