The occupations of war engaged his mind, while his heart was solicitous in promoting the happiness of his family.,He winced with pain, reeled, and would have fallen but for the other’s sustaining hand.,As her eyes grew accustomed to the flicker and motion, she searched for Elinor, and saw her at last, the center of the weird procession, standing quietly beside the chair from which she had risen, holding her head with a sweet and gracious dignity that went straight to Patricia's chilled heart.，"That is enough," interrupted Mrs. Dallas, rising in a cold fury.
