Cruel a. this thought IL, It yet comes
to him AZ very heavetl-sent hope,
after his nrst great shock. To he able

He draws q long breath and, lifting
bis hand to his forehead, pushes back

and the knowledge that he cannot 60

Curiosity-alresdy little on the alert
must be satisfied at once and any
further gossip about his cousin put an
end to. He would have given a good
part Of his income to escape the ordeal

hesitation, he again puts aside the cur

steps down the tasselated pavement to
where he has seen her sitting.
Eleanor he calls In loud voice.
He cannot bring himself to look In her
direction. however, or he could hardly
have failed to notice the crimson
cheeks and flashing eyes, and general

tall for her, whilst hartford, lowering
and sullen, Is holding back from her,

Here she apologies very sweetly to
