"Oh how mumsey must have worried!" As the automobile drew up at the curb she sprang from it and rushed into the house, straight into her mother's arms Mrs. Westley had heard the car stop and had walked with faltering steps to the door. "Mother, I didn't want you to be worried not for the world! But we couldn't help it."
