"Your surveyors 'were' twins,-" "-were they not, Uncle?"

                 [Dig that,  -" "- ]


>From _The Adentures of Peter Pan_, Ch. 1, "Peter Breaks Through"

"All children, except one, grow up. They soon know that they will grow up, and the way Wendy knew
was this. One day when she was two years old she was playing in a garden, and she plucked another
flower and ran with it to her mother. I suppose she must have looked rather delightful, for Mrs.
Darling put her hand to her heart and cried, “Oh, why can’t you remain like this for ever!” This was
all that passed between them on the subject, but henceforth Wendy knew that she must grow up. You always know after you are two. Two is the beginning of the end."

The twins may be in dreamland, but somehow their influence
is still being felt. Each anti-twin, the mutually passed over pair
continues to haunt the now adult parlor.
