"I was to get your promise in writing," he demurred. "Give it to me, give it to me," she demanded. "I do not break my word." He handed her the letter. "My dearest Dorothy," she read, in writing well known to her. "You may judge my exalted state of mind when you see that I dare venture on such a beginning.

She did not consider her refusal now; she obeyed. He took the hat from her and her feather boa. Then he insisted on the removal of the little short-waisted coat.

"We can't find him," said Ransome, solemnly: "and we fear we sadly fear " Grace uttered a low cry, and then sat trembling. Ransome tried to console her; said it was just possible he might have not slept in the works. The porter shook his head. Grace sprung from the carriage. "Show me the place," said she, hoarsely.
