"This neighbour-country was rich, great, powerful; but her people were greedy, slothful, asleep. They had arms, they had food, money, everything. Did they help my people in their need? I tell you, no!" She almost shrieked the last words, and Margaret looked up in some alarm, but concluding that Rita was merely working herself up to a dramatic crisis, she went on with her knitting.
"She often speaks of you," faltered Mildred. "Indeed she seems to be living all her old life over again." The doctor looked graver every day, and at last held out no hope. Late one night they saw that the crisis was near. Belle was almost inanimate from weakness, and Mrs.
"Oh yes, madam, though I am afraid I cannot do it justice," he replied modestly. "Are you interested in organ music?" "I am very much interested in yours, and I am still more interested in a romance that has been dragging its weary length along for twenty years, and is trying to bring itself to a crisis just on the other side of that screen. You can help me precipitate it, if you only will!"
That means delay the failure of my plans ruin." Gale was silenced by his friend's intensity. Thorne bent over closer with his dark eyes searching bright. "We were old pals once?" "Surely," replied Dick. "What would you say, Dick Gale, if I told you that you're the one man I'd rather have had come along than any other at this crisis of my life?"
