"Well," firmly, "I shall put a flea in Edith's ear. She must call a halt. She is simply letting that crazy imagination of hers run rampant. I shall speak to her to-night." During the ten days allowed her for preparation Kitty continued charmed with Hayden's idea of a butterfly dinner. It suited her volatile fancy.
Or shall we allow Hayden's suicide to pass as the result of his implication in this attempt at bribery? I ask your advice, Mr. Magee." "My advice," returned Magee, "is that you befuddle no pompous little village doctor with the complication of this unhappy tale.
"It seems to me if everybody would read the words of Jesus and follow his example they would never be harsh, or critical, or uncharitable, and above all, they would not judge anybody or anything without a righteous reason. The whole burden of his teaching is expressed in the sentence: 'Little children, love one another," was Mrs. Hayden's opinion. Kate looked at her gratefully.
I do not see why you say such things. Why should you fancy that I would not be interested in anything you have to tell me?" They had turned down a narrow lane of trees, and the skies, a deeper and more luminous gold, were in a net of bare, black twigs. The wind bore the fragrance of Marcia's violets past Hayden's nostrils. "But you may not feel so when I tell you that I love you, Marcia."
His voice low and unsteady thrilled her heart. "I realize the rashness of the whole thing; but I do love you, Marcia." There was a moment's silence, a silence when Hayden's heart-beats sounded louder than the patter of their feet on the concrete pavement or the distant and mighty roar of the city and then Marcia lifted her eyes to his. In a moment the miracle had happened.
"The only time I have ever seen them together, Ydo and Marcia," continued Bea, who was in a loquacious mood and ready to be lured on by Hayden's interest, "was one evening when I happened to see them dining together at the Gildersleeve. They were with Mr. " Bea hesitated the twinkling of an eyelash, "an elderly man," she concluded rather lamely. Hayden looked straight ahead.
Hayden gave me a clearer idea than I had before, and I just denied the headache and acknowledged the truth that she was spiritually well; then waited a few moments and gave thanks that it was so." "How glad we ought to be for the privilege of reading Mrs. Hayden's letters," said Grace, thoughtfully, as she smoothed her hair and washed her hands.
Berkeley Hayden's immortal soul stood on the tiptoe of ecstasy when Anne Champneys laughed. She no longer thought of herself as Nancy Simms; she knew herself now as Anne Champneys, a newer and better personality dominating that old, unhappy, ignorant self. If at times the man glimpsed that other shadowy self of hers, it was part of her mysterious appeal, her enthralling, baffling charm.
Hayden's former family physician, shook his head wonderingly, but said nothing. He was a careful thinker and needed time for his conclusions, but as every one well knew, he had the friendliest, most charitable heart that ever was, and very candid, withal, in his judgments, and fair in his investigations. So in time they would know what he thought.
A lot of money for a young man. If I was you I wouldn't hesitate a minute. Think. What's Hayden ever done for you? He'll throw you down some day, the way he's thrown me." "I I don't know " wavered Bland. Mr. Magee, in the card-room, knew that Hayden's emissary was tottering on the brink. "You could set up in business," whined Mr. Max.
