He called at Norman's office for the pleasure of talking of her; but Norman was still absent. The following afternoon he called at Norman's house. The servant said Mrs. Norman was out. "Miss Huntington?" "She left this morning." Keith walked up the street feeling rather blank. That night he started for the South. But Lois Huntington was much in his thoughts.
