Half an hour later they sat around the breakfast table, a contented trio. After Emma had left them to go to her work, Grace and Elfreda had a long confidential conversation over their coffee. The noon train brought Mabel Ashe, Arline and Ruth, while from off the afternoon trains stepped Anne and Miriam, the smiling Emerson twins, Elizabeth Wade, Marian Cummings and Elsie Wilton.
Hardly more is known of Purcell than of Shakespeare. There is no adequate biography. Cummings' life is scarcely even a sketch; at most it is a thumbnail sketch. Cummings remarks that "Queen Mary died of small-pox, and the memory of her goodness was felt so universally," etc.
The clue thus furnished had been lost in St. Louis, but was picked up again, some months later, by Cummings himself through the police-record photograph in Denver. Cummings admitted that he had followed Polly and me on our wedding journey; that he had known where we were stopping, and had seen us in the canyon-brink hotel. "Why didn't you take me then?" I asked.
That is one of the misfortunes which pursue a lady who allows an editor to fall in love with her. Cummings having been one of those who insisted that the new uniforms should be worn.
The shrill tones reached the stranger, who turned half around in his saddle and saw Cummings waving his hat. Checking his speed somewhat he allowed the distance between them to become less, but holding his horse well in hand, if any signs of treachery were observed he could have some chance of escaping.

Dr. Cummings, aided by Mrs.
Satisfied that, as yet, no one was on his track, Cummings allowed his fears to vanish. He was still safe and if he could only reach his "den" in safety he could lay low until the first wind had blown over.
