this was the first chance they

But gradually 1t seemed indeed
that everybody was going to
Louise's.
There were only five guests
in the Tower parlor when Par
ris arrived. They did not repre-
sent "leading families" but
neither Cassandra y nor Paris
knew that. Cassandra looked
very pretty in a unidentified
white dress, but she seemed
bewildered.

kind of rivalry lay behind the
important question.
Louise Gordon was BUSY with
