"Jaggard, did you notice that negress of Mrs. Dallas' about the grounds, since five o'clock?",
For a whole week after the events already related, nothing new took place likely to alter the situation. Maurice and David remained coldly polite, and very watchful of one another; neither mentioned the name of Isabella, nor did the one or the other see the girl. Mrs. Dallas took care of that.
