her superstition, but when one is as
pretty as Miss Anderson that may be
easily forgiven.
Finally the objective point was reach

rooms above successfully made. Miss
Anderson was dressed I'm habit OF
brown, made most plainly and giving
her the general effect OF Carmellte

west wind had brought rs 1t was still
