some of Us delicate rosetint-a comparative
want of color that made her eyes look
larger darker, but she held her head with
its old air of proud wilfulness.
To Richard Strong it seemed that all the
assemblage must be looking at her and ad-
miring her, and-yes. even envylng him the
possession Of so precious, If elusive ana
mysterious, a holding. He who had sought
