Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1912-09-20

During an engagement a certain sen
sitiveness or oversensitiveness Is apt
to permit unimportant matters to re
brought out into the open. Percy did
not repeat the question. but began to
speak of something else. No one had
better control of himself than he, and
he acted outwardly AS though he had
ventured upon ground on which he had
no right to trend. Inwardly there was
great change In him toward his
fiancee.
When he went home that night the
warning he had received against the
American beauty, the hints as to her
plebeian origin, the mystery attending
her inheritance, all came up before
him to throw him into fever that no
other cause could have effected. Sup
pose this clrclet should have some con
nection with either Of these matters.
Absurdl There was much more rea-
son to suppose that 1t concealed n
blemish, a bIrthmark, or perhaps one
Of those scars Of unusual size and ugll
ness that are left by n vaccination.
And yet would this woman, about
whom there was an impresslveneSs
that affected every one who came near
her. refuse to tell the man she was TO
marry that on her arm was n trihing
blemish? II the first supposltiOn was
absurd the second was more so. No;
there was some mystery connected
with the circlet-a blot, weakness.
There was a weakness I'm this strong
woman, a very strange weakness, n
weakness that no one could conceive
as existing side by side with being
of such mental and spiritual caliber,
but what It was or what was the mys-
terry 1t shielded Percy was not destln-
ed to find out from Miss Denton. He
was to learn 1t by accident
The secret grew and festered and
throbbed and palned till the lover
could stand 1t no longer. He was Il
masterfu man IN self control and sue
ceeded In concealing what he felt from
the woman he loved-not that she
failed to discover that something had
come between them or that she did
