of the vagaries of "A girl But we must
humor her bit"
To himself he smiled. He had long
suspected that RcbccCu loved some one
else. although her parents appeared
blind to that fact. But the girl had
II strong appeal for him. And whether

Yes. this did happen from some idle
fancy" said zimberg, catching An
drcw'S words. But I will find her
and then / will change her mind"
Yes. certainly. \ father with Il
strong will can always overcome the
folly Of Young girl"
But we must find her first" broke
in the mother, and where can we
looky"

will search Odessa with fine combs
and we will find her" Zimbcrg answer

want you to do all in your power TO

Andrew then bid them good night

the error Of her ways"
Thcrcsu sighed But she could not
contend with her husband What
wouldn't she have given for Rcbccca's
courage Mt this time but she could
not brave her husband though it might
mean the loss Of her daughter. She
must wait. Sorucr or later Rebecca
would come to her mother.
