they talked of old times, of mutual

the coast where they had spent the

room had been rented, and without
regard to consequences sat down
for a chat with her old friend.
The day wore on, and it was al
most dark when the young man
finally took his leave.

had been rented, and to what sort
of person. But Catherine, with an
embarrassed blush, was evasive in
her answers.
