Aunt Adeline came out of the front door, and said in the most frozen tone of voice—,"I never will," I said in a hurry; "I want you to ask me anything in the world you want to, and I'll always do it.",Elinor laid down her brushes and turned in her chair. Her face lighted as she saw the rough, vigorous outlines of Patricia's latest effort.,Patricia watched, flying up the stairs two steps at a time, and she turned to Elinor, with her hand on the door.,"I agree with you!" remarked the major, sharply. "A man might make a jest of these horrors--as you are doing."，"Oh, that was rubbish," said Jen, contemptuously. "You didn't mean it."，"Why no, major. Mr. Sarby was with him."，"A doctor's brougham?""I know, I know," replied Lady Meg, while a wave of color passed over her fair face.

"I would tell you if I could," said David again, but in rather a sullen manner; "but I have reasons, strong reasons, for not doing so. Later on--" he paused nervously.,"Half-an-hour will be sufficient," said the major, in a serious voice. "I wish you to tell me what took place on the night you were drugged.","On the grounds of having murdered Maurice," said Jen, coldly. "Yes, you may look astonished, David, but it is the truth.

I fell asleep in the library, after Mr. Sarby had gone to bed; and, of course, I had every confidence in you.","How so?",Before Elinor could respond, she started to the door with an exclamation.,All eyes were upon him as he crumpled his napkin into a hard ball and crushed it between his flexible fingers, while his face assumed an earnest and rather anxious expression.,"Very generous of you indeed," said Jen, ironically; "but I do not see why you should behave in such a noble manner when you were so much in love with the girl.",Patricia was about to speak, but there was a general stir and a voice cried, authoritatively:,"I can guess what she said," interrupted Jen, hastily. "No more of this till after dinner, my dear lad. Then I'll explain all.",The major was rather inclined to agree with David that it would be difficult to learn anything of material value from Isabella. On the night she had visited the house at three o'clock in the morning her brain had been unsettled for the time being by the terrible death which had overtaken her lover, and she had been thrown into a frenzy by the mysterious theft of his body. The question which the major wished answered was, whether she had been sufficiently herself to remember the events of that night, and especially those which had taken place prior to her escape from The Wigwam. But the only way to decide this doubt was to see the girl personally, and Major Jen feared lest he should find Mrs. Dallas and Dido obstacles to his accomplishment of this object.,"For heaven's sake don't couple my name with Lady Meg's," interrupted Maurice, sharply. "You know quite well--".
