"I can't," says Mona; "it would be very unfair; and besides," petulantly, "it is all too absurd. Why, if Mr. Moore were to ask me to marry him ten thousand times again, I should never say anything but 'no.'" But, as he had money, some of the county, after the first spasm, rather acknowledged him, as at least a cousin, if not the cousin. And because he was somewhat unusual, and therefore amusing, and decidedly liberal, and because there was no disgrace attaching to him, and no actual reason why he should not be received, many houses opened their doors to him. All which was bitter as wormwood to Lady Rodney. "'In the midst of life we are in debt,'" says Nolly, solemnly.

"Your husband is looking for you," she says to Mona, in an icy tone. "You had better go to him. This is no place for you." At this Mona laughs unrestrainedly; and Lady Rodney, rising hurriedly, says,— "But, as I said to Lady Rodney, suppose I haven't a headache," retorts Mona, triumphantly. A certain man, who had two wives, a daughter, and two sons, as he saw what a hard time they were having, said, "I shall not stop here to die. To-morrow we will move toward the mountains, where we may kill elk and deer and sheep and antelope, or, if not these, at least we shall find beaver and birds, and can get them. In this way we shall have food to eat and shall live.".
