It was the strange memsahib, the khansammah observed to himself. |
Morbid sort of fancy I call it, but I've got to do what the memsahib tells me. |
Clearly he could not deliver a letter to a memsahib who was not. |
Her mother shook her head, but her father laughed and called her his little memsahib. |
But no memsahib came, and, next day, he went on to Simla cross-questioning the bearer every hour. |
I don't think I shall ever outlive the memsahib or Tsin-ling. |
