"But I don't understand--" "I'm about ready, too," chimed in Miss Jinny. "I reckon they'll be quite astonished when they meet with their old friend Sinbad the Sailor." I suppose I really would be doing the right thing to marry Mr. Graves, and I should adore all those children to start with, but I know Billy wouldn't get on with them at all.

"What do you mean?" asked Maurice, turning his still frowning face toward this strange and enigmatic man. "My dear Etwald, if I did not know you so well, I should take you for a charlatan." A man that can't be happy with a woman who is willing to "fulfil his destiny" doesn't deserve to be. CHAPTER VI AFTERMATH.
