Judith was silent for the most part, but her eyes glowed like live coals and she kept tossing her pale, straight mane in the way she had when pleasantly excited. "Quite right, quite right!" broke in Major Jen, heartily. "I want Maurice to marry." "I am neither for nor against," replied Jen, enigmatically. "As I said before, let the girl marry who she loves best.".

Then all at once it occurs to Mona that though he is looking at her he does not see her.

Judith tossed her head. Of course this was mere raving on the part of Jen, who had no reason to connect either woman with the crime; but the poor man was beside himself with grief at the loss of Maurice, and hardly knew what he was saying. Being in this frame of mind he was by no means pleased when shortly after the delivery of Mrs. Dallas' message Dido made her appearance with a request for a personal interview.
