but she always replied In the negative.
One day after they had had their
dinner he sat looking ut her curiously.
She was close to the window reading
a book, when he cnused her to look NJ

her the family was at dinner. She
opened the door slowly and stepped
inside. For one moment her vision
was obscured by the fright that sud

She searched the mans face and

"Yes." said Tonnibel. honestly. but

When Doctor Pendlehaven told Mrs

Meanwhile upstairs Tony Devon was
fast getting back to her normal self.
The blessed assurance she had that ste
was needed by her sick friend lifted
her spirits. She grieved lnwardly for
her mother. but shuddered when she
thought of her father. Now all ties
were cut between them. She had no
doubt but that both Uriah and Reggie

Tonnihel's mind flashed to Philip.
She felt sure he would go TO the cor

as he had gone to the canal boat.
Yet as she gazed into the imploring
eyes of her friend, she had no heart
to deny him his wish.
