I'm going to do something more practical, and I want you to help me, if you can stop being jealous of the poor girl, for——" Her eyes sought the pale pure outline of Elinor's profile, caught between the intervening faces, and held it during the brief explanatory speech, wherein Mr. Benton paid his tribute to Elinor's generous silence, and apologized in the name of the Board for the unjust accusation.
