"It is a point in her favor nevertheless," says Jack, who is again looking over his shoulder at the letter. "I am very glad I did," replies he, doggedly. "At least I have seen you. They cannot take that from me. I shall always be able to call the remembrance of your face my own." "It is quite a romance," says Jack Rodney: "I never heard anything like it before off the stage."

Dr. Bland, coming into the room, goes up to the bedside and feels his pulse, and tries to put something between his lips, but he refuses to take anything. "But why?" says Mona, trying to read his face. "Am I so different from other people?" A strong shudder runs through her frame; she grows a little heavier in his embrace.
