“Susan,”whispered Peter,“What about you ? Ladies first.”
“No,you’re the eldest,”whispered Susan.And of course the longer they went on doing this the more awkward they felt.Then at last Peter realized that it was up to him.He drew his sword and raised it to the salute and hastily saying to the others“Come on.
