Mrs. Mifsud, in the lead of the rescuing party, ran through the garden gate in time to see St. Elmo fall headlong, his feet having become entangled in the long rank grass near the fence.

If the world had looked dark that afternoon, it was now Egyptian blackness. “Who wants to drive my trained bear an’ monkey? Only a dime stranger, only a dime!” Howard caught Nell’s gaze. He longed to gather the girl who had so completely captured his heart into his arms and kiss away their estrangement.
