Erelong, better feelings came to her aid, and with her arms wound round Mabel's neck, as if to ask forgiveness for her unkind thoughts, she fell asleep. After leaving Mr. Douglass's, Mrs. Livingstone ordered her coachman to drive her around to the house of Mrs.
"'Lena is in Frankfort now, at Mr. Douglass's," answered Mrs. Livingstone, "and your son is in the constant habit of visiting there; besides that, he invited her to ride with him when they all went to Frankfort 'Lena upon the gray pony which your husband gave her as a Christmas present."
