"Major, major, I have heard all! I have been listening at the window." When poor Mr. Carter died, the next day she said, "Now, Mary, you are entirely too young to live all your long years of widowhood alone, and as I am in the same condition, I will let my cottage, and move up the street into your house to protect and console you." And she did—the moving and the protecting. The other two men had dark and strong faces, which differed entirely from the Saxon simplicity and good looks of the major and Maurice. David was clean-shaven and almost as swart as Etwald, and his expression was that of a being with powerful passions, held in check by sheer force of will. He was broad and strongly built; and his smooth black hair, parted in the middle, was brushed carefully from a bold and rather protuberant forehead.

Bruce laughed good-naturedly as he shook hands. "Yes. I promise you I'll say nothing." "What does Dr. Etwald say about it?" "Do get on, Miss Pat," urged Judith, folding her napkin. "I've got to get to school sometime this morning, you know.".
