"I didn't understand you were joking," he said quietly. "Yes--no--yes. That is, I don't wish to see her. Ask her what she wants, David." "It pleases you to be mysterious, David. Shortly I shall insist upon an explanation.".

"Aha, missy," said she, in deep, guttural tones, "you tink ob dat yaller-ha'r'd man!" Then suddenly Billy stiffened right in my arms, and looked me straight in the face, and said in the doctor's own brisk tones, even with his Cupid mouth set in the same straight line— Upon her Dido exercised a powerful, and it must be confessed, malignant influence. She had fed the quick brain of the girl with weird tales of African witchcraft and fanciful notions of terrestrial and sidereal influences. Isabella's nature was warped by this domestic necromancy, and had she continued to dwell in the West Indies, she might almost have become a witch herself.

But her residence in England, her contact with practical English folk, with the sunny side of life, saved her from falling into the terrible abyss of African superstition; and how terrible it is only the initiated can declare. It only needed that she should be removed from the bad influence of the barbaric Sybil to render her nature healthy and fill her life with pleasure. "What, else?" demanded Judith, whose color had been rising at the alluring forecast. Patricia made a despairing little gesture.
