Once or twice Charlotte spoke reproachfully to him, and that was all. Anderson never spoke a word to him, and his grief and jealousy grew. Anderson, walking along the shadowy street with Charlotte's little hand in his arm, would have been oblivious to much more startling demonstrations than poor Eddy's.

'Well, then, he must go to Carrara. said Charlotte. Just at this moment the lock of the front door was heard, and Charlotte's quick care detected her brother's cat-like step in the hall.
