David gave an answering squeeze that brought the tears to her eyes, as he whispered in return, "That's all right, old lady. Don't you fret about me."

"I shall explain," said Etwald. "David found out that Maurice was going to meet Isabella that night secretly in the grounds of Mrs. Dallas near the gates. Determined to see the meeting, and to learn if there was any hope for him, he feigned a journey to London in order to lull any suspicions which Maurice might have that he was being watched.

I've done with it now for good and all. I was an idiot to think I could do anything, anyway." "Dr. Etwald! Do you think he has anything to do with it?" queried Jen, perplexed and a trifled startled. "I'll slip in behind the door screen," she thought, "and see what's going on. Elinor may need me.".
