"They will say almost as cruel things as you have said," returned David, still composed. "But I do not care for the opinion of the public. I act according to the dictates of my own conscience." A blue-aproned girl who had been packing her materials in an adjoining locker turned civilly. "Yes, but I was wrong; I made a mistake.".
