Had my afections not been otherwise engaged, I should have thriled at his accents. But, although handsome and of good familey, although poor, I could not see it that way. So I drew my hand away, and retreated behind a sofa. "We must have an understanding, Carter" I Said. "I have sent for you, but not for the reason you seem to think. I am in desparate Trouble." He looked dumfounded.
I placed a shaking hand over the Frat pin, beneath which my heart was beating only for HIM. And waited. What was my dispair to find it but Carter Brooks! Now there had been a time when to have Carter Brooks sit beside me, as now, and treat me as fully out in Society, would have thriled me to the core. But that day had gone. I realized that he was not only to old, but to flirtatous.
But now I thriled at the information, because the Grays have a place near the Club also. For a moment I closed my eyes and saw myself, all in white and decked with flours, wandering through the meadows and on the links with a certain Person whose name I need not write, having allready related my feelings toward him. I am older now by some weeks, older and sader and wiser.
Although thriled, I still retained my practacality. "Not exclusively, Tom," I said, in a firm tone. "We are both young, and know little of Life. Some time, but not as yet." He looked at me with a searching glanse. "I'll bet you have a couple of dozen Frat pins lying around, Bab," he said savigely. "You're that sort. All the fellows are sure to be crasy about you.
As we were going to the country in but a few days, I aranged to leave my new Possesion, merely learning to drive it meanwhile, and having my first lesson the next day. "Dearest," Jane said as we left. "I am thriled to the depths. The way you do things is wonderfull. You have no fear, none whatever. With your father's Revenge hanging over you, and to secrets, you are calm. Perfectly calm."
