:21:02
Oh, didn't you read Joseph's letter?
:21:09
"How are you, my dear Amelia?
:21:13
"And how is all your little family?
:21:16
"If you did but know how brightly
your image burns for me...
:21:19
"and how I dream of you
and Georgy hand-in-hand.
:21:26
"Every detail of your daily life
is precious to me...
:21:30
as I sit and write
beneath the Indian sun. '"
:21:36
"Dear William.
:21:38
"Thank you for your letter which took
three months to reach me... Mother?
:21:44
But was very welcome when it did. '"
:21:51
Mother, what are you doing here?
I was coming to see you on Saturday.
:21:55
"Georgy is in good health...
I made Georgy some shirts.
:21:59
And living with his grandfather. '"
I was going to leave them for him.
:22:03
Oh, Mother. I couldn't wear
your funny old shirts now.
:22:09
Good day to you, madam.
Come along, Georgy.
:22:12
You are silly, Mama.
:22:15
- Silly old Mama!
- "I am persuaded it is better.
:22:18
So, for his sake, I must submit. '"
:22:29
Listen, Dobbs, if you'd rather
leave it for some other time,
I can easily find someone else.
:22:33
No. No, no, I'm coming.
:22:35
"I confess it was with quite a pang that I
read Joseph's news of your engagement. '"
:22:39
What?
:22:49
Dobbs, I can't breathe!
:22:57
Good Lord, Dobbs.
Have you lost your mind altogether?
