But Mr. Rodney is determined to "have it out with her," as he himself would say, before consenting to fade away out of her sight. The birds, as though once more led by the balmy mildness of the day into the belief that summer has not yet forsaken them, are singing in the topmost branches of the trees, from which, with every passing breeze, the leaves fall lightly.
