A
friend
of
mine
desired
me
to
offer
—
a
story
—
just
as
an
experiment
—
would
like
your
opinion
—
be
glad
to
write
more
if
this
suits
.
"
While
she
blushed
and
blundered
,
Mr
.
Dashwood
had
taken
the
manuscript
,
and
was
turning
over
the
leaves
with
a
pair
of
rather
dirty
fingers
,
and
casting
critical
glances
up
and
down
the
neat
pages
.
"
Not
a
first
attempt
,
I
take
it
?
"
observing
that
the
pages
were
numbered
,
covered
only
on
one
side
,
and
not
tied
up
with
a
ribbon
—
sure
sign
of
a
novice
.
"
No
,
sir
.
She
has
had
some
experience
,
and
got
a
prize
for
a
tale
in
the
Blarneystone
Banner
.
"
"
Oh
,
did
she
?
"
and
Mr
.
Dashwood
gave
Jo
a
quick
look
,
which
seemed
to
take
note
of
everything
she
had
on
,
from
the
bow
in
her
bonnet
to
the
buttons
on
her
boots
.
"
Well
,
you
can
leave
it
,
if
you
like
.
We
’
ve
more
of
this
sort
of
thing
on
hand
than
we
know
what
to
do
with
at
present
,
but
I
’
ll
run
my
eye
over
it
,
and
give
you
an
answer
next
week
.
"
Now
,
Jo
did
not
like
to
leave
it
,
for
Mr
.
Dashwood
didn
’
t
suit
her
at
all
,
but
,
under
the
circumstances
,
there
was
nothing
for
her
to
do
but
bow
and
walk
away
,
looking
particularly
tall
and
dignified
,
as
she
was
apt
to
do
when
nettled
or
abashed
.
Just
then
she
was
both
,
for
it
was
perfectly
evident
from
the
knowing
glances
exchanged
among
the
gentlemen
that
her
little
fiction
of
‘
my
friend
’
was
considered
a
good
joke
,
and
a
laugh
,
produced
by
some
inaudible
remark
of
the
editor
,
as
he
closed
the
door
,
completed
her
discomfiture
.
Half
resolving
never
to
return
,
she
went
home
,
and
worked
off
her
irritation
by
stitching
pinafores
vigorously
,
and
in
an
hour
or
two
was
cool
enough
to
laugh
over
the
scene
and
long
for
next
week
.
When
she
went
again
,
Mr
.
Dashwood
was
alone
,
whereat
she
rejoiced
.
Mr
.
Dashwood
was
much
wider
awake
than
before
,
which
was
agreeable
,
and
Mr
.
Dashwood
was
not
too
deeply
absorbed
in
a
cigar
to
remember
his
manners
,
so
the
second
interview
was
much
more
comfortable
than
the
first
.
"
We
’
ll
take
this
(
editors
never
say
I
)
,
if
you
don
’
t
object
to
a
few
alterations
.
It
’
s
too
long
,
but
omitting
the
passages
I
’
ve
marked
will
make
it
just
the
right
length
,
"
he
said
,
in
a
businesslike
tone
.
Jo
hardly
knew
her
own
MS
.
again
,
so
crumpled
and
underscored
were
its
pages
and
paragraphs
,
but
feeling
as
a
tender
parent
might
on
being
asked
to
cut
off
her
baby
’
s
legs
in
order
that
it
might
fit
into
a
new
cradle
,
she
looked
at
the
marked
passages
and
was
surprised
to
find
that
all
the
moral
reflections
—
which
she
had
carefully
put
in
as
ballast
for
much
romance
—
had
been
stricken
out
.
