"Why did you omit Madame Bulteel and myself when you mentioned those who showed their friendship?" she asked, hesitating at the last word. "Haven't we done our part?" "I was talking of men," he answered. "One knows what women do.
Whatever she was, she was an independent atom in the mass of the world's breeding. Perhaps it was consciousness of the dynamic quality in the girl, her nearness to naked nature, which made Madame Bulteel say that she would "have a history."
I could not think where I had heard it before, or with what memory it was connecting in my brain. I had a feeling it was something to do with George Harcourt. I puzzled for a while, and then I looked back over the pages of my journal, and there found what I had written of his conversation Bobby Bulteel Hartelford's brother cheating at cards and married to Lady Hilda Marchant Of course!
