"Then keep 'em and the Lord will do the good thing Himself; that same or another. He can do what He please; and He tell you, only keep His words. He want you to show you love Him and He tell you how." Daisy sat quite still to let the tears pass away, and the struggle in her heart grow calm; then when she could safely she looked up. She met Juanita's eye. It was fixed on her.
"You are an old dear, and you must not be so solemn about it. Marcos and I are only married for fun, you know." And the door closed behind them, shutting off Juanita's voluble explanations. "You see," said Sarrion, after a pause. "She is happy enough." "Now," answered Marcos. "But she may find out some day that she is not." Juanita came back before long and found Sarrion alone.
I, as may be supposed, was very willing to do so, as I liked the country, and hoped to meet with more adventures. Rochford was quite ready to remain, for he had every reason to believe that he had won Juanita's affections. How my father might ultimately have acted I cannot say, for matters were settled in a way we little expected.
Will you let your cottage to me for the time that this child is confined here and remove somewhere else yourself, that I may put the people here I want about her?" "Oh, mamma! " said Daisy. But she stopped short; and Mrs. Randolph did not attend to her. Mr. Randolph looked round to see Juanita's answer.
And Juanita knelt on the road while he laid his hand on her hair with a smile half amused and half pathetic. He looked twenty years younger than Sarrion, and laying aside his sacerdotal manner as suddenly as he had assumed it on Juanita's instinctive initiation, he helped her into the carriage with a grave and ceremonious courtesy. "This is your own carriage," she said when they were all seated.
Through the open door she could see the neat order of the room within, and her eye caught some shells arranged on shelves; but Daisy did not like to look, and she turned away. She met Juanita's eye; she felt she must speak. "This is a pleasant place." "Why does my lady think so?" "It looks pleasant," said Daisy. "It is nice.
"Such a fortune as yours," he said, with an easy laugh, "would make or mar any cause you see. Your fortune is perhaps your misfortune who knows?" Juanita laughed also, as at a pleasant conceit. The wit that had baffled Father Muro was ready for Evasio Mon. A woman will take her stand before her own heart and defy the world. Juanita's eyes flashed across the man's gentle face.
Juanita's eyes fell before the cold accusation in those of Miss Valdés. "Si, Señorita." "And he was kind to you? In what way kind?" The slim Mexican girl, always of the shyest, was bathed in blushes. "He called me ... niña. He ..." " made love to you." A sensation as if the clothes were being torn from her afflicted Juanita. Why did the Doña drag her heart out to look at it?
Juanita decided to leave on the following morning; and, during the afternoon, I was surprised to learn, that Hal had ridden up to Las Cruces, six miles above the fort; but, shortly after his return, I noticed upon Juanita's finger, a little gold ring, that I had not seen before, so I ventured pleasantly to refer to it, in the course of conversation that evening, and was informed, with many blushes, that it was-only a memento, of their trip through the Apache country.
"Nothing only I am so glad now that my foot is hurt." Juanita's thanksgiving rose to her lips again, but this time she only whispered it; turning away, perhaps to hide the moisture which had sprung to her eyes. For she understood more of the case than Daisy's few words would have told most people.
