"Dr. Etwald?",The hours dragged heavily along in that house of mourning. The body of the dead man lay in the little chamber which looked out upon the laurel-encircled lawn. It was covered with a white sheet, the hands were folded upon the breast, and flowers had been laid thereon by the major. Over the face a handkerchief had been thrown, as the once handsome features were so discolored as to be absolutely repulsive to the sight. There was something terrible in the rigidity of the long form, stretched out so stiffly under the sheet. In the chamber candles were burning, and Jaggard was watching near the corpse. He was to watch throughout the night.,"How do you know there were more than one?" asked Etwald, in a jesting tone.,"And what did you do?" asked Jen, much interested in this strange history.,Patricia, thrilled by the sweetness of the rippling, crooning song, and before the verse was half done, joined unconsciously in with the others, forgetting the need of words in the melody of the lilting song.，Miss Jinny had been quietly removing her outer coverings and as Griffin spoke she dropped her last concealing wrap, and stepped out in turban and embroidered jacket, vermillion girdle and wide, baggy blue trousers whose voluminous folds almost hid the vermillion and gold tips of her curling slippers.

All of a sudden I hugged the letter and the little book and laughed until the tears ran down my cheeks.,"You do!" cried Jen, in surprise, "And who told you?",Speedily, however, she recovered herself, and with a dark smile of contempt and pity she was about to deny all, when Jen brought out his last accusation.,"You will see in a few minutes. Miss Dallas, you look pale. I hope soon to bring back the roses to your cheeks. Major--","By Mrs. Dallas!","What is the initiation itself?" asked Elinor, as the girl turned away.,"But I thought from what you said of the handkerchief dropped in the room--","Of course he does," cried Jen, wrathfully.,"Was I humming?" she asked genially.
