The count appeared at the latters

lobby, pacing nervously up and down.
Gould presently appeared. Castellane
sprang to meet him, murmuring a few.

to see Gould the same evening, but
when he appeared after dinner in an
immaculate evening dress and inqu'r-
ed for the brother of his former wife,
he was told that Gould was not there.
