But half an hour later, when Pamela came up to her bedside, the dark eyes flew wide open in an instant. "What is it, Pam?" she asked. "Is he worse again?"

To Pam Lensky she wrote a rather long letter, for there were some few things she wanted made clear. "Dear Pam," she began abruptly "I am going away with Victor Joyselle.
