Muriel saw very little of her fiancé during the weeks that followed their visit to Redlands. There was not indeed room for him at the cottage at Brethaven which she and Daisy had taken for the summer months. He had, moreover, several visits to pay, and his leave would be up in September. Muriel herself, having once made her decision, had plenty to occupy her.
