 Why did you part asked the girl. leaning forward eagerly.
 Her father resolutely opposed the union," he replied slowly He was an invalid and she thought 1t her duty to defer to his wishes and remain with him and care for him. She would not listen to any waiting on my part, but renounced our happiness once and for all.''
