her enthusiasm she telephoned me
from the very midst of the surround

beaHtiful'-thus she assured me. and
her voice made it impossible to doubt.
And, the evening before the great day,

the sinking feeling that came over me

that afternoon, before pulled myself
together, called myself an ass, and,
with pause at Delmonicos for a
drink, which ! ordered and then re-
iected, finally pushed myself in at the
door. What a state my nerves were
in!
Alva had departed; Anita was wait
ing for me in her sitting-room. When
she heard me in the hall. just outside,
she stood in the doorway. Come in"
she said to me, who did not dare so
much as glance at her.
