By the way, shall you be using your watch to-morrow?
gpt
Well, I promised I'd take it, to see how the time went; but I dare say we could do without it, and I would like to lend it to you, Halliday.
human
Not a bit of it, replied the other.
gpt
I can do without it as well as you. I am going to walk over to Whitstone Woods and back.
human
Hullo, that's a long trot, said Charlie.
gpt
It must be nearly thirty miles.
human
Something like that, said Joe.
gpt
Walcot and I are going to make a day of it.
human
Which way do you go?
gpt
Through Gurley, and then over Rushton Common and past Slingcomb.
human
Never! I wish I could do thirty miles at a stretch.
gpt
So you will some day. Good-night.
