Miss Jinny came to herself with a chuckle. "My gracious, Patricia Kendall, what are you thinking of!" she exclaimed in growing amazement. "Are you mad enough to imagine I'm going to behave like a lunatic, just because I'm taking a new name to myself? Do behave or I'll never speak to you again!" "I forgot," she said.

Patricia followed her into the big, clay-soiled, dusty room, clutching her new smooth wooden tools with nervous fingers. Jaggard advanced to the trophy of weapons, and examined them with some deliberation, after which he turned to face the irate major. "I'm glad to hear that she is making good now," said Margaret Howes gravely. "I always felt there was a lot of good in Leighton under her fluff." There was generous and general rejoicing at her account of the brief interview, and a strong feeling that under this happier augury Geraldine must recover.
