THE ROBBER AND THE BURGLAR
245
And she said, "I wanted to, when you said no one kissed you when you left off being a pirate captain."
And he said, "I know you did, my dear."
And Dora kissed him too, and said, "I suppose none of these tales were true?"
And our robber just said, "I tried to play the part properly, my dear."
And he jolly well did play it, and no mistake. We have often seen him since, and his boy Denny, and his girl Daisy, but that comes in another story.
And if any of you kids who read this ever had two such adventures in one night you can just write and tell me. That's all.
