LAST.
CHAPTER CIV.
Aunt had gone. Neil had been too
busy to go to the station when she
there with her, and 1 had bought
her all the late magazines, and a
basket of fruit TO help her pass the
time pleasantly on her long lonely
journey. 1 was fond of her, yet 1t
was with a sense of relief that 1
turned away from bidding her good
bye. She had been with Us $50 long,
Neil had become SO impatient of her.
questions, we'll meant tho they were
and 1 had grown tired of never being
alone.
There are people who never want
to be isolated, to whom staying
alone is real punishment. But l
was not one of those. 1t was restful
to know that I could read or sew
without interruption. 1 only hated
my evenings alone. 1 had felt always
that Neil should give me his society
after dinner. Either at home. or
that we should go out together. 1
knew now that she had gone / should
have to spend many of them alone
Altho, I hoped to persuade Neil to
remain with me more often than he
had while she was with us. He had
felt no responsibility then. He knew
1 never was alone.
Blanche Orion called the day after
| aunt left. She expressed her sorrow
at missing her. then said;
IT have wanted to come and see
| you ever since-that night YOU came
to my house" She had hesitated and
flushed 1 too flushed as she referred
to my unlimited appearance. 1T was
a very brave thing to do-consider-
ing"
considering what ?" I asked.
Considering you knew you would
meet the very people you had refused
| to entertain yourself I'm not so
squeamish. I can't afford to be. But
your frank admission that you wanted
| to help Neil-Mr. FOorbes. made me
like you better than ever had before.
and so I am going to trust you"
Trust met l returned, wondering.
Yes. trust you! Strange, isn't 1t =?
I suppose you have thought that be-
| cause I was unconventional that /
was not quite-well, not quite all
right. That because L received those
people 1 was one Of them-like them.
l wouldn't blame you If you had,
don't try to deny it, I had made a
| gesture OF dissent. You know that
1 love RXury, dress, good food and
service. 1 am miserable without
| these things. Well. Mr.. Orton left
me almost a beggar. 1 thought he
had plenty of money. He never told
me much of his affairs. 1 supposed
! when he died I could go right on liv-
ing just as had been doing 1
could-for a month or two Then
you gave me the means to go on lfv-
