"That's me," said Bertram, landing an agonizing blow on his thumb-nail.
Constance's eager trembling pleasure in the tea touched her deeply, and she was exceedingly thankful that Constance had her, Sophia, as a succour in time of distress. A bell tinkled far away in the kitchen. "Anything I can do?" Sophia inquired. "Oh no, thanks," said Constance. "I only want my letters, if the postman has come. He ought to have been here long ago."
