"You are speaking of Lady Chetwoode? Was it her that called last week?" asks Mona, timidly, forgetting grammar in her nervousness. Now from the fire again arose the smell of roasting meat. The children ate and played. Those who so long had been silent now talked and laughed. "Still, there was no necessity to insult him with such a message as you sent.

After all, she has proved a great success. She has fought her fight, and gained her victory; but the conquered has deep reason to be grateful to her victor.
