Sister Edith followed the guests to the porch, as did his mother and the little girl—the room was empty! He opened the kitchen door, tried to hasten noiselessly, yet thought he clattered like a threshing machine. Into the living-room he crept, and lumbered softly up the stairs that seemed a mile long.,“Do you know that piece of music called ‘The Rose of Larst Summer’?” inquired the musical connoisseur.,A faint sound caught his ear, as of clinking coins and soft voices.
