Only as Mrs. Geoffrey makes her final curtesy, and Geoffrey, with a laugh, stoops forward to kiss her lips instead of her hand, as acknowledgment of her earnest and very sweet performance, thereby declaring the same to have come to a timely end, do the new-comers dare to show themselves. "Will that take her long?" asks Mona, somewhat wistfully, feeling, without understanding, some want in his voice. To this name, given to her in such an unkindly spirit, Mona clings with singular pertinacity.
