"Do not go, madam," said he, quietly. "I have something to show you." CHAPTER IX THE ACADEMY BALL "My poor lads," said he, in a voice full of pathos. "First one and then the other--to lose them both in this awful fashion." "Yes," said Jen to himself that night, as he retired to bed, "to-day I have learned sufficient to implicate Etwald; to-morrow I shall be able to convict him. Dido must confess or go to prison.".
