Now they can hear the sound of wheels; and presently a light tax-cart swings round the corner, drawn by a large, bony, bay mare, and in which sits a heavy-looking, elderly man, in a light overcoat. "He may not,—there is a faint chance,—but of course the title is gone, as he has proved his birth beyond dispute." "I really wish," she says, presently, "you would do what I say. Go to the farm, and—stay there.".

So he tells himself, and is, as we know, close to the truth. For nature made her what she is,.
