“no, i left no excuse. i told joe to say i was out, that was all.”
“why, my dear, i should think you’d understand by this time that people don’t do such things; we’ve got to observe les convenances if we ever expect to get on and keep up with the procession. if you felt that you had to leave home this afternoon, you should have left some suitable explanation for your absence.”
