really )was a garden, and, though
most of the guests clustered on the
lawn, one or two wiser folk saun
tered round the rose-bordered paths.
Two of these were seated in a quiet'
part of the garden enjoying the scent
of the flowers and the solitude. They
were engaged. Presently a mutual
friend sauntered down the path and
noticed them.
"You two seem to be enjoying
yourselves over here all alone," said
he.
"We are," said the girl, and, being '
a girl, managed to look pleased to see
him. "Won't you join us?"
"Sorry, I can't," answered the
friend, "not being a clergyman. But
I'll go and find one, if you like!"
