Perhaps something in his face warns her, perhaps it is the weariness of her own voice that frightens her, but at this moment her whole expression changes, and a laugh, forced but apparently full of gayety, comes from her lips. It is very well done indeed, yet to any one but a jealous lover her eyes would betray her. The usual softness is gone from them, and only a well-suppressed grief and a pride that cannot be suppressed take its place. "Yet, I am letting him go free that he may be the perpetrator of even greater crimes.".

"Let it be so, then," replied the husband; "but remember that if trouble comes, it is you who have brought it on yourself and on our son." The naivete of this speech is not to be surpassed. The man-eater was the seventh and last of the bad things to be destroyed by Kŭt-o-yĭs´. "Then you didn't go out much in Ireland?" she says, thinking it more graceful to change the conversation at this point..
