We spoke enough of the matter last night. Only see to it that no one hears you. I warn you that I shall kill the first who laughs, and who could help laughing?" She was too wise to answer that. Instead, she motioned over her shoulder toward the group of late-risen revellers who were lounging under the trees, breaking their fast with an early meal. "Tyrker bids you come and serve the food."
Well, she had said that if one had feet one might climb, and to-night the old man had tried to train her to his pace for attaining heart's desire. In the midst of a jumble of autos and shining mill windows, she watched the room grow ghostly with the light of a late-risen moon. Suddenly afar off she heard the "honk! honk! honk!" which had preceded the advent of the car on the ridge road.
The gun days of the West were done; he had seen only one cowboy wearing one in his four years at Jasper. Past midnight Mackenzie came to a little valley where somebody had been cutting hay. The late-risen moon discovered the little mounds of hay thick around him, the aroma of the curing herbage was blowing to him an invitation to stop and sleep.
At the foot of the ladder, they met a man in white, with a white face in what might be the dawn, or the pallor of the late-risen moon. "Is Hackh there?" He hailed them in a dry voice, and cleared his throat, "Where is she? Where's my wife?" It was here, accordingly, while Heywood stooped over a tumbled object on the ground, that Rudolph told her husband what Bertha Forrester had chosen.

There were no explanations on the road home, for Miss Ponsonby walked behind us with Stephen Shaw in the pale, late-risen October moonshine.
