Scene: The Library at Misselthwaite Manor
Archie, they're asking if they can send the girl here
It seems they found an old will naming you as Mary's guardian
This is no house for a child
I couldn't agree more
Well, we shall simply have to find an appropriate school and they can-
No!
The girl is Lily's niece, she will come here
Have Mrs. Medlock order the child some clothes
I won't have her dressed in black wandering about like a lost soul
That would make the house even sadder than it is
It seems they found an old will naming you as Mary's guardian
This is no house for a child
I couldn't agree more
Well, we shall simply have to find an appropriate school and they can-
No!
The girl is Lily's niece, she will come here
Have Mrs. Medlock order the child some clothes
I won't have her dressed in black wandering about like a lost soul
That would make the house even sadder than it is
