It seemed a little like old times to Grace, to be once more going with Rose and John over the pretty romantic road to Spindlewood. John did not reflect upon how little she now saw of him, and how much of a trial the separation was; but he noticed how bright and almost gay she was, when they were by themselves once more. He was gay too.
I said, 'My good fellows, I will clear my house and table of wine, if you will clear yours of rum. On this agreement I formed a temperance society; my father and I put our names at the head of the list, and we got every man and boy in Spindlewood. It was a complete victory; and, since then, there hasn't been a more temperate, thrifty set of people in these United States."

Such hours of disclosure to a man are among the terrible hidden tragedies of life, tragedies such as are never acted on the stage. Such a time of disclosure came to John the year after Grace's marriage; and it came in this way: The Spindlewood property had long been critically situated.
