"Your sister had telegraphed before the funeral, to make sure and word has come that he isn't there." "Where is the paper?" demanded Suzette, with a kind of haughty incredulity. Wade found it in his pocket, where he must have put it instead of giving it back to Adeline in the sleigh. Suzette took it and went with it to one of the windows.
"No, no; I won't," she said, with gratitude that wrung his heart. "And won't you wait and see Suzette?" Matt reddened. "No; I think not now. But, perhaps, I will come back; and and I will come soon again. Good-by!" "Mr. Hilary!" she called after him. He ran back to her. "If if your father don't think anything can be done, I don't want he should say anything about it." "Oh, no; certainly not."
This latest drowning at Pont du Sable was a tragedy or rather, the culmination of a series of tragedies. "Suicide?" "Non mon ami wait until you hear the whole truth of this plain tale." On my return from shooting this morning, Suzette brought me the news. The whole fishing village has known it since daylight.
Doubtless she works afield beside that old Jacques Bonhomme, and drinks sour wine or Normandy cider on Sundays. That may be the best fate of Suzette, but it must be an amply dry reformation for any little grisette to contemplate. For such prodigals going home there is no fatted calf slain. No fathers see them afar off and run to place the ring upon their fingers.
"When will you leave Paris, baby?" said Suzette one evening, as she returned from her friend's and found him sitting moodily by the fire. "Very soon," he replied crisply; "that is, if ever I have money or resolution enough to start." "Won't you take me with you, little one?" "No!" "You don't love me any more!" "Pish!" "Kiss me, my boy!"
He told his mother of the new shape the trouble of the Northwicks had taken, and asked her if she could not go to see them, and find out some way to help them. Louise wished to go instantly to see them. She cried out over the noble action that Suzette wished to do; she knew it was all Suzette. "Yes, it is noble," said Mrs. Hilary. "But I almost wish she wouldn't do it." "Why, mamma?"
"No, I will stay till your carriage comes," said Suzette; and they remained a moment silent together. Then Louise said, "Matt has got a new fad: a young man that writes on the newspapers " "The newspapers!" Suzette repeated with an intimation of abhorrence. "Oh, but he isn't like the others," Louise hastened to explain. "Very handsome, and interesting, and pale, and sick.
Women will always feel for thee!" It went in like a knife it was so true . "I was a very fine Englishman once," I said. "It is possible, thou art still, sitting, and showing the right profile and full of chic and then rich, rich!" "You could not forget that I am rich, Suzette?" "If I did I might love you Jamais!" "And does the sea help to prevent an attack?"
"So, my good Suzette, I find you have lost your place!" cried he, "I am come to offer you one for life will you marry me?" "I, Sir? you are joking." "No, indeed, I want a wife, and I am sure I can't find a better."
He ushered Patty into a small waiting-room, and went in search of his sister. Patty heard much gay laughter from the drawing-rooms, and suddenly felt that her joke was not as funny as she had expected. But she determined to carry it a little further and see what might happen. A charming young woman soon came to her, and said with a pleasant smile, "Is this Suzette?"
