A week after the return of Prof. Seabrook, Dr. Stanley ventured to transfer his patient to his native city. He was desirous of getting him away before the general flitting back to Hilton, in order to prevent awkward meetings and complications. The young man had improved steadily, and his physician had found him, as a rule, very patient and tractable.

The moment the door opened Dorothy uttered a cry of joy, extending eager hands to her, and, after saluting Prof. Seabrook, Katherine went to her side, a cheery smile upon her lips as she greeted her. "I'm so glad, Miss Minturn! Mamma said you were coming, and I've been watching the door ever since dinner. Can you stay a long time?" exclaimed the girl, in glad tones.

She does not like to let them go, neither does she feel quite like leaving them to run the house by themselves. Perhaps she would be glad to rent it," Mrs. Minturn returned. 'That would be delightful, for then we could have Mrs. Seabrook for a neighbor, and oh! mamma if we only could do something for that dear child," said Katherine, yearningly.

Seabrook as your husband, and it shocks me unpleasantly." "I am speaking of things as they appeared to others.

Now that would be a simple affair enough; the telegraph would procure us the information wanted in a day. Then a letter was five or six months going and coming. In the meantime I had resolved not to live with Mr. Seabrook as his wife; but you will see how I would, under the circumstances, be compelled to seem to do so. I did not think of that at first, however.

Such a one passes in general society for a 'good fellow, because 'the iron hand in the velvet glove' is scarcely perceptible there, while its ungloved force is felt most heavily in the relations of private life. If I had been in a position to flatter Mr. Seabrook, undoubtedly he would have shown me a corresponding consideration, notwithstanding his selfishness.

Seabrook had back in Ohio." "They could not have believed your story," I said; not being able to take in such inferior morality. "What they believed I do not know: what they said I have told you. I incline to the opinion that they thought I might be a little daft I am sure I must have looked so at times, from sheer sleeplessness and exhaustion.

I laugh now, in remembering the blunders committed by self-conceit so long ago; but I did not laugh then; it was a serious matter at that time." "Was Mr. Seabrook jealous in his behavior, fearing you might fancy some one else?" "Just as jealous as vain and tyrannical men always are when they are thwarted in their designs.

"Henry Seabrook will hate to admit he's been wrong all these years," was his game comment. "You recollect how he raved and carried on when you showed him those futurist designs?" "Do I not? You'd have thought there was something positively immoral in them, evil enough to rot the very yarns!"

When I recall all these things, I take credit to myself for magnanimity; though then I was governed only by my poor uncultivated judgment, and my impulses. For instance, Mr. Seabrook fell ill of a fever not long after he appropriated my real estate.
