She was tall and stately , just like the heroine in a book , and she had lovely curly brown hair and big blue eyes and the most dazzling complexion . But she looked very cross and disdainful and I knew the minute I saw her that she had been quarrelling with the young man . He was standing in front of her and he was as handsome as a prince . But he looked angry too . Altogether , you never saw a crosser-looking couple . Just as we came up we heard the young lady say , `` What you ask is ridiculous and impossible , Ted . I ca n't get married at two days ' notice and I do n't mean to be . '' And he said , `` Very well , Una , I am sorry you think so . You would not think so if you really cared anything for me . It is just as well I have found out you do n't . I am going away in two days ' time and I shall not return in a hurry , Una . '' `` I do not care if you never return , '' she said . That was a fib and well I knew it . But the young man did n't -- men are so stupid at times . He swung around on one foot without replying and he would have gone in another second if he had not nearly fallen over Johnny and me . `` Please , sir , '' said Johnny respectfully , but hurriedly . `` We 're looking for Mr. Frederick Murray 's place . Is this it ? '' `` No , '' said the young man a little gruffly . `` This is Mrs. Franklin 's place .
Frederick Murray lives XXXXX Marsden , ten miles away . ''
