It was as if she said plainly to the curious young aunt that this pilgrimage was only a prelude in Maria Angelina's career, and she certainly did not take its possibilities for any serious finalities.

The whole great mill was now charged with an unaccustomed excitement an excitement which had in it something of solemnity. There was no sign of the usual mirth and hilarity which constitute the mill's sole attraction. There was no singing not even Angelina's "Fatal Wedding." No exchange of stories, no sallies.
