All that he was and hoped to be he had placed forever at her feet. Dignity, individualism, egoism, all had fallen before this young thing. She was water in the desert, the north star to a man without a compass. He had seen her and come into being.

I'll tell you what, Rachael, if you come down to Easthampton this summer we'll have a play, and you can be an Indian " "I'd love it," Rachael said, and making a deep bow before her husband she added: "I'll be Squaw-Afraid-of-Her-Man!" She heard them laughing as she ran upstairs to change to a more conventional dress.
Devon was only a short drive from Easthampton, and that meant the possibility of seeing and speaking to Joan. Good God, if only she could understand a little of what she meant to him, and how he craved and pined for her. The dressmaker on the street floor of the rabbit warren had gone out of business.

The Laurel Hill Association has an executive committee of fifteen, in addition to seven officers. In Easthampton, Mass., there is a board of fourteen directors, and there are committees on sanitary matters, on setting out trees, on sidewalks and hitching-posts, &c.
