"Yes, it was there," said Caddy, "and I am engaged to Mr. Turveydrop. There are two Mr. Turveydrops, father and son. My Mr. Turveydrop is the son, of course. I only wish I had been better brought up and was likely to make him a better wife, for I am very fond of him."

"I am sorry to hear this," said I, "I must confess."

It's still a secret, even on his side, because it might break old Mr. Turveydrop's heart or give him a shock if he was told abruptly. Old Mr. Turveydrop is very gentlemanly.
