The judge had already arisen, and he and Green were now walking side by side across the bar-room floor. "I want to speak a word with you," I heard Lyman say. And then the two went out together. I saw no more of them during the evening. Not long afterward, Willy Hammond came in. Ah! there was a sad change here; a change that in no way belied the words of Matthew the bar-keeper.
At last every veil would have dropped from between them, and as they had long been one flesh they would be one in spirit. She waited in the tent door. After what seemed a long time she saw Androvsky coming across the moonlit sand. He was walking very slowly, as if wearied out, with his head drooping. He did not appear to see her till he was quite close to the tent.
