"I think, very likely, you are right," said he; "and the man had been over to Inniscaw to make a last appeal to the Lord Proprietor." "I wonder," mused Vashti, "if he is the sort of man to tell his wife?" The Commandant pondered this and shook his head, meaning that he found it hard to answer. "I know very little of Tregarthen.
"The ways of the good God are marvellous," he mused, as he went to his vestry, "and it is fitting that youth should find its mate. We grieve and wring our hearts and nothing is final and while there is life there is hope that love may bloom again. Peace be with them."
