Loyal Sarah Yellett decided that Hamilton’s guests would get but a scant supper from her if her friend Judith was to be unfavored with an invitation, while Judith, in her own warm heart, resented as deeply as Peter’s slight of herself, his tale of Miss Colebrooke’s impatience to meet Mrs. Yellett.
Dax regarded them with the mercilessness of a death-watch; she remembered the time when Hamilton’s excuses for his frequent presence at the post-office had been more voluble than logical. But now he no longer came, and Judith, for all her deliberate flow of spirits, did not quite convince the watchful eyes of Leander’s lady—the postmistress was a trifle too cheerful. "Mrs.
Judith preferred to confirm her apprehensions regarding Hamilton’s ride, alone. She knew—had not all her woman’s intuitions risen in clamorous warning—and yet she hoped, hoped despairingly, even though the dread alternative to the girl at the Wetmore ranch threatened lynch law for her brother.
With the vivid plainswoman in the foreground, the pale-haired writer of verse dwindled almost to reminiscence. But the reverence for the usual, that made up the underlying motive for so much of Hamilton’s conduct, presented barriers alongside of which his previous quandary regarding Miss Colebrooke’s seniority shrank to insignificance.
It thus seems apparent that it is a copy secured in some way by Hamilton’s political opponents: OCTOBER 18, 1787.

Chugg’s latest excursion into oblivion had resulted in a fall from the box. He was not badly hurt, and recuperation was largely a matter of "sleeping it off," concluded Peter Hamilton’s bulletin of the condition of the stage-driver.
She was racked with anxiety at his long delay, and now she hung over Kitty, waiting for her answer, without the semblance of a cloak for her alarm. There was reproof in Kitty’s amendment. "I don’t know which way Mr. Hamilton’s horse went. It started back over the trail, I think." Judith clasped her hands. "Let us go and look for him. Why do we waste time?" But Kitty hung back.
At sound of it Judith’s heart stopped beating. The voice was Peter Hamilton’s. The Cabin In The Valley And Judith, taken unawares by the unexpected turn of things, comforted as a lost child that is found, told all her feeling for him in the way she called his name.
