He said nothing more about the lost cash-box Aunt Alviry dared not even broach the subject but Ruth tried to show him in quiet ways that she was sorry for his loss.

He was slow to broach the subject, but only the next morning came a question about an invitation to a dull house. "But," said Cecil, "it is better than home." She spoke on purpose.
