I found Barbara with Laura Bowman, every one else off the place, out at the shows. Those girls sure were good to me; they fed me and didn't ask questions till I was ready to talk. Nothing to be said really, except that I'd failed. I told them of meeting the Vandemans, and gave them Ina Vandeman's opinion as to how Worth's friends should conduct themselves just now.
I glanced around and pulled myself up; we certainly weren't making ourselves very entertaining for the Vandemans. There they sat, at their own table, like handsome figureheads, smiling politely, pretending a decent interest. "All this must be a bore to you people," I apologized. "Not at all not at all," Vandeman assured us.
"So they'll all be out there," I concluded, "Vandeman and his wife leading the grand march, her sisters as maids of honor except Skeet, staying at home with her mother. Cummings goes as a Roman soldier; Doctor Bowman as a Spanish cavalier. Edwards didn't see it as the Vandemans do, but after I'd talked to him awhile, he agreed to be there."
At the head of the procession as they swung around, leading it with splendid dignity, came a pair who might have been Emperor and Empress of China the Vandemans. To go on with affairs as if nothing had happened though Worth Gilbert was in jail had been the laid-down policy of both Vandeman and his wife. I'd thought it reasonable then; foolish to get hot at it now.
