In the friendly talk which followed the reconciliation, Lady Lydiard not only heard the news of Moody's pecuniary inheritance but, noticing the change in his appearance for the worse, contrived to extract from him the confession of his ill-starred passion for Isabel.
Every promise in the Word of God is like Moody's torch, and if we will take it and use it, we shall find as he did, that it will light us all the way to our Eternal Home.
