"But she will be living only six miles from you, and the county will surely call, and that will not be nice for you," says Violet. "No," says Nicholas, "she isn't; though I should consider her dear at any price." He is a depraved young man who declines to see beauty in ebony and gloom. "But," with a sigh, "I don't think you quite understand, darling." Kneeling down by her, Dorothy lays her head upon Mona's knee, and bursts out crying afresh..
