Arranstoun's sitting-room and the June afternoon, and we shall hear Miss Delburg saying, in her childish voice of joy: "Nothing could be better I always did like doing mad things. It will be the greatest fun! Think of their faces when I prance in and say I am married! Then I will snap my fingers at them and go off and see the world."

Sabine stiffened she felt she ought to enlighten the benevolent old man, who evidently did not understand at all that she was going to trip off not as he, just to her own home, but out of Mr. Arranstoun's life forever but no suitable words would come, and Michael, afraid of what she might say, hurried his chaplain off without more ado and then returned to her and shut the door.

"Her character, then, would seem to have been rather like my friend's, Michael Arranstoun's," he remarked. "They have both such an astonishing, penetrating vitality, one would almost know when either of them was in the room even if one could not see them."

I have not told you about her mouth it is very curved and full and awfully red and there is the most adorable dimple up at one side of it, I am sure the people in the ghost world that she meets must awfully want to kiss it." Sabine frowned. This was rather too intimate a description, but bashfulness or diffidence she knew were not among Mr. Arranstoun's qualities or defects.
