Kathleen's heart, but it was only fore
shadowing after all, as if in an o'ercast
sky there should appear on the far hori-

take down that letter was the hardest
task that had ever fallen TO her.

must tell him of her marriage. He hln-

He forgot that he had checked his dis

not realize that his question was an i'm
proper one. He had been SO i'll ana was
so weak that he was not master Of Kim
