less than your own disgust with what

furious denial or attempt at refuta-

in which she had descended to con-
front him.
Rather than this, she seemed Gained
and sobered by his charge; far from
Resenting 1t, she appeared disposed
DO concede its fairness; anger deserted
her expression, leaving it intent and

and faced him squarely across the

A sudden grumble from the teakettle

welcome distraction. Lanyard lifted

She recalled her thoughts, nodded
