I've got something to attend to first," promised Patricia, inwardly quaking lest the other should offer to wait for her; but she went off with the crowd that was hurrying into the clay room, and Patricia was free to arrange her surprise. I have turned out that light lots of times, but I felt it best to let Tom see me in a full light when we were alone. It is well I did!
