Jarrott," he said, making himself comfortable, while she moved the tea-table in front of her. "He wrote to me, partly as Stephens and Jarrott's legal adviser, and partly as a friend." He allowed that information time to sink in before continuing. "He tells me Miss Jarrott is on her way home, with Evie." "Yes; Evie herself wrote me that. I got the letter at Cherbourg."

"I've noted other things!" he smiled. "About her?" "No, not about her." She laughed, deliciously he thought. "I best get on with my tale," she said.

The visit ended after eight delightful days, and the emperor escorted his guests back to Boulogne. Prince Albert, the queen confesses, was not so much carried away by the fascinations of their new friend as herself; but the empress secured his entire commendation.
