As soon as I'm done with the rough stretch I've got just ahead of me, I'm going to like it. Let me see one of those girls was named Walpurga and one was named Madelene this one, I'm sure Yes!"
She had been picturing a life, a home, with just Arthur and herself; here was a far different prospect opening up. But Mrs. Ranger was waiting, expectant; she must be answered. "I couldn't take him away from you," Madelene said. "I'd only lose him myself if I tried." Tears came into Ellen's eyes and her hands clasped in her lap to steady their trembling. "I know how it is," she said.
"Your heart is so tender.... My poor little Madelene I fear the shock will kill her. She doesn't know yet that she really had no husband." Tessibel's eyes grew large with astonishment. Then, Frederick had exonerated her to Waldstricker. Her eyes sought Deforrest Young's. "Mr. Waldstricker told me downstairs about it, my darling," he said tenderly. "My brave little girl!"
"Well, now, you listen to me.... You'll hear what I please to say to you, young man. It's a good thing you don't go to Skinner's any more. It's time you were interested in a decent girl. You've got to marry sometime. It's just as easy to love a rich girl as a poor one. Why don't you propose to Madelene Waldstricker?"
The two women went upstairs together in silence, and it was not until Helen had closed the door and Madelene had removed her wraps that Mrs. Graves turned upon her brother's wife. "I suppose you noticed from Ebbie's letters that I've been awfully unhappy?" "Yes," admitted Helen, "but I was in hopes it had passed over."
"Today?" asked Tess, breathing deeply, now fully possessed of her senses. "Yes, today." Then he remembered Madelene.... he had made her a promise. "But I'll help you to get out after a while, if you tell me who who brought you to this condition." He threw out both hands disdainfully toward her. Waldstricker's white hands, hands stronger than God's! Who had dared say it?
"So that they can sit round the saloons longer," suggested Adelaide, and then she colored and dropped her eyes; she was repeating Ross's comment on this sort of "concession to the working classes." She had thought it particularly acute when he made it. Now "No doubt most of them will spend their time foolishly at first," Madelene conceded.
This wistfully, for he was now awake to the prejudices his mother must be fighting. "I'll have the horses hitched up, and go and see her," said Ellen, promptly. "She's a good girl. Nobody could ever say a word against her character, and that's the main thing." She began to contrast Madelene and Janet, and the situation brightened.
"Honestly, Madelene," said Adelaide, in a flush and flash of irritation, "don't you think that's absurd? With the responsibility of the whole business on his shoulders, you know he ought to have more than a common workman." "In the first place you must not forget that everyone is paid very high wages at the university works now." "And he's the cause of that of the mills doing so well," said Del.
Every one thought I tried to close that blow-off cock and hold the throttle shut. I was a hero in the papers and to the men, and I couldn't get a chance to tell the truth if I dared, and I was afraid to ask about Dandy Tamplin. "No word came from Madelene. One day Bridges came to see me, and brought me this watch I wear now, a present from the company.
