"That's what! Uncle Peter." Toward the upper end of the East Drive they passed a victoria in which were Miss Milbrey and her mother with Rulon Shepler. The men raised their hats. Miss Milbrey flashed the blue of her eyes to them and pointed down her chin in the least bit of a bow. Mrs. Milbrey stared. "Wa'n't that Shepler?" "Yes, Shepler and the Milbreys.
His name is Shepler, Rulon Shepler. He's most the biggest man down there." "Sure! I heard of him." "Listen! I'm goin' to bed now. I can sleep since I got my mind made up. But I want to see Shepler in private to-morrow. Don't wake me up in the morning. But get up yourself, and go find his office look in a directory, then ask a policeman. Shepler's a busy man.

"You're guessing now, and you're as keen at that as I. Avice is not only amazingly self-willed, as you intimated a moment since, but she is intensely secretive. When she left me I could get nothing from her whatever. She was wretchedly sullen and taciturn." "But why should she hesitate? Shepler Rulon Shepler! My God! is the girl crazy? The very idea of hesitation is preposterous!"
