"I should never be afraid of him," returns Mona. "He has kind eyes. He is"—slowly and meditatively—"very like you." "The night was so lovely,—so mild," says Mona, faintly, concealment in any form being new to her, and very foreign to her truthful nature; "and I knew Mickey would tell you it was all right."

And the Divinity boys were the worst. Shall I tell you about them?" To the surprise of everybody, Geoffrey takes no open notice of his mother's speech.

So thinks Mona, and goes steadily on to the library, dreading nothing, and inexpressibly cheered by the thought that gloom at least does not await her there. "No one can say we are not in time," says Jack, gayly. "It is exactly"—examining closely the ormolu-clock upon the mantelpiece—"one hour before we can reasonably expect dinner.".
