Boyd rose, and going to the door, saw that the sky was deeply overcast, rendering the night as dark as in a far lower latitude. "I've overstayed my welcome," he ventured, and smiled at her answering laugh. With a trace of solicitude, she said: "Wait! I'll get you a rain-coat," but he reached out a detaining hand. In the darkness it encountered the bare flesh of her arm. "Please don't!
Jenney, "and helps with the horses and cows the same as if he wasn't gettin' to be one of the greatest lawyers in the State." "O dear, Mr. Jenney," said Victoria, glancing out of the window, "I'll really have to go home. I'm sure it won't stop raining for hours. But I shall be perfectly dry in my rain-coat, no matter how much you may despise it."
He ran back to the dead horse, unloosed the saddle from its back, detached from it a rain-coat strapped to the pommel, and brought it to her. "This will keep you warm," he said. "It isn't cold to-night. You only feel cold because you're upset and nervous." "I'm frightened," she answered; "frightened of everything. Listen! Don't you hear something stirring there!"

But Esmay, at the last moment, could not bring herself to don habiliments exclusively masculine. So she compromised by wearing a round jacket with a rolling collar and tucking away her hair under a boy's cap. A long rain-coat, for which the showery morning was an excuse, completed her outward attire and concealed her petticoats from casual view.
Let them come to-morrow if they would. By that time some of the mines would be ownerless and his position strengthened a hundredfold. He telephoned the mines to throw out guards, although he reasoned that none but madmen would think of striking there in the face of the warning which he knew must have been transmitted through Helen. Putting on his rain-coat he sought Stillman.
And that dress, fresh just this morning limp as a dish-rag!" Missy tried to explain, but the anxiety between mother's eyes deepened to lines of crossness. "For heaven's sake! To go rushing off like that without a rain-coat or even an umbrella! And you pretend to be afraid of thunder-storms!
