Read this excerpt from "Rose's Birthday Present" by Marie E. C. Delbrassine. "Where is Rose?" "Busy, as usual, with her mice and

beetles, I suppose, father," answered Ethel; "we have not seen her all this afternoon." "She will probably be with you at teatime," said Dr. Sinclair, "after which I should like you to ask her to come to me for a little while in the surgery." "Very well, father, I won't forget." Dr. Sinclair retreated again to his surgery, which was arranged also as his library, knowing that his willing helper would not fail to join him there. What is the correct way to separate the dialogue in this excerpt? "Where is Rose?" "Busy, as usual, with her mice and beetles, I suppose, father," answered Ethel; "we have not seen her all this afternoon." "She will probably be with you at teatime," said Dr. Sinclair, "after which I should like you to ask her to come to me for a little while in the surgery." "Very well, father, I won't forget."

This is the correct way to separate the dialogue in this excerpt:

"Where is Rose?"

"Busy, as usual, with her mice and beetles, I suppose, father," answered Ethel; "we have not seen her all this afternoon."

"She will probably be with you at teatime," said Dr. Sinclair, "after which I should like you to ask her to come to me for a little while in the surgery."

"Very well, father, I won't forget."

Explanation: When dialogue involves two or more people, there needs to be an indent and paragraph for each speaker so the reader knows when one begins and ends their speech.
