Dorothy Meets Pete

into which fate was leading him
Pete was swept with exultation.
1t was not that his dreams over
leaped themselves that he was lift

Dorothy must never know his iden-

to receive, the faintest hint of the
truth: that the embalmed body in
the easKet was not that of her hus-
band. Her eternal happiness de-
pended upon that; and her happi-
ness, hers alone-now that full
vision had come to him-was the
one theme of his life.
Indeed, after that counterfeit of
himself in the casket had been nm
earthed and Dorothy had sailed
away, his own fate would not great
ly matter. He would vanish into the
interior with his traps and perhaps
The bitter winter would destroy
him; but at least he would have full
filled his last dream-the only
thing that he had ever dared to
dream, since his flight from home
three years beforehand he would
bear no i'll will. The dark curtains
of oblivion could drop over him for
all he would care.
1t moved him deeply that his wife
should make the long perilous jour
ney in his memory, leaving the
warmth, the light and gaiety that
she loved simply to do honor to her
