"In the case of Romeo and Juliet, if I remember correctly," said Ben, "it was not exactly a question of friendship."
"She is well enough to go just where she's a mind to, I reckon," said Ben Benson, crashing through the undergrowth, "and I'm here to help her do it." "Thank you," said Mabel, gently, "I wish to go home!" Ben turned towards Harrington, and, without regard to the presence of Agnes, spoke his mind. "I don't like the cut of things up yonder, somehow. The woman looks like a female Judas Iscariot.
This was the last Edna heard of hazing and if Cousin Ben was ever caught he did not tell her or anyone else.

"Have you got the letter you speak of?" asked Mrs. Hamilton. "No," answered Ben. "I must have dropped it somewhere. I felt in my pocket for it when I reached the gambling house, but it was gone."
