CHAPTER XIV.
An American Girl.

The Marquise d'Esclignac saw that
girl. Those who know these girls
know what their temper and mettle
are, and that they are capable of the
finest reverberation.
Julia Redmond was very young.

she was rather bored with the idea
of titles and fortunes. But she adored
her aunt and saw, moreover, some
thing else than ribbons and velvets in
the makeup of the aunt. She saw
deeper than the polish that long
Partisan lifetime had overlaid, and
she loved what she saw. She respected
her aunt, and knowing the older lady g
point of view, had been timid and hest

Now the American girl woke up, or
rather asserted herself

Marquise d'Esclignac; she had been
an American girl first and remembered
that her maiden name had been De
Puyster and that she had come from
Schenectady originally. But for many
years she had forgotten these things
