CHAPTER Xvii.

There is little more to, tell. In the
few following days I managed to-
scrape enough together to take me to
the foreign country where l am now
beginning, life over, and have prob
ably weathered the storm as well as
could reasonably be expected. But OF
course will never again feel just as
I used to, and don't believe that
will EYER fall in love with another
done fairly well, having worked con-
scientiousiy for the last three years,
and being once more on the road to
moderate success. I have never seen
or heard from Mrs. Dace since the
time left her shopping in the store
upon the day when l stepped from
paradise into hell at single stride.
She is probably floating down the
Nile or yachting on the Mediterranean
with Richard Mackay; enjoying her
self to greater or less extent, and
| have no doubt thinking quite often
of me. The thought OF it still gnaws me
rost OF the time, but of one thing
am COnLuSht W Lh15 Aay. faiAh 1Ae1.
is that she was really very fond OF
me and would, as she herself said
have preferred to spend her life with
me rather than anybody else had
| possessed sufficient money. There
| fore she wanted me to succeed and
encouraged me to desperate chances
knowing as / myself did that it was
| the only chance of achieving fortune
quickly; she not being one Of the
kind that is content to wait for wha1
| possessed sufficient money. Had won
! | have no doubt that she would have
married me and that we would have
/ been happy had the money lasted Ant
/ I also believe that she was upon tn
] verge of conserving to our immediate
