"Why did she not come in?" asked Jen, coldly, for he did not feel very amiably disposed toward the widow. Doris Leighton, with a rather flushed face, leaned forward as Patricia spoke and touched her on the shoulder. Mrs. Shelly nodded briskly. "And I'll come sit with you while you're getting ready," she promised, patting Judith's hand. "We can have some good talks together then, and I'll remember more stories for you, too." "Yes," assented Arkel, with a nod, "a brougham.".
