However, I was too excited, and could not hold out till nine; I thought I had better hear my fate at once, and as I was walking across the field you know, at the back of Mrs. Heald's I met her half way. She had a letter in her hand, which she said she was going to leave at Mrs.
Plunged into this whirlpool of thought, I moved steadily forward at Captain Heald's shoulder, unconscious of what might be taking place about us, and for the moment indifferent to the result of our venture. But this feeling was not for long.
