Mad Quote by Georgette Heyer
““Read that!” commanded madame dramatically, and handed her a crumpled sheet of paper. It contained a brief message in Juliana’s sprawling characters: “My dear Tante, pray do not be in a taking, but I have gone with Vidal. I have No Time to write more, for I am in Desperate Haste. Juliana.” “But—but it is not possible!” stammered Léonie, growing quite pale””
