"Try him, lover, and maybe he will—will learn to——" I couldn't help the tears that came to stop my words. A girl sauntered past them as they loitered before their lockers. The wind, driving furiously from the west, flung the clouds before it—great sullen masses of flying gray vapor that now broke into drenching torrents, shaking the barn and tearing at the casements.

On consideration Jen thought it would be best to say nothing definite to David about his discovery.
