Gerald, my dear sister, is Miss Phebe's idol; I rather think she says her prayers before Gerald's picture every night." "Oh, please!" cried Phebe. "But who is this Gerald?" asked Mrs. Whittridge. "Does he live here?" "No, Soeur Angélique, and by the way he is not he at all, but she, and will be known in history as Miss Geraldine Vernor.
"You said Phebe was the better worth loving of the two," said Mrs. Whittridge, coming to walk up and down the room with him and clasping her hands over his arm. "I used to think, I fancied you cared for the child, that you would care for her." Denham stood still and faced his sister very gravely, "I was growing to care for her, Soeur Angélique," he said.
"She thinks it the most matter-of-fact thing in the world that she should play Sister of Charity to other people's sick, and never expect so much as a thank-you from them." "She is a lovely character," said Mrs. Whittridge, warmly. "She is indeed," assented her brother. "A rare character. She is one in a thousand."
I must correct you of it. I will, just as soon, that is, as I have broken myself of it. Will you wait till I have taken myself in hand?" They were together sitting in a little recess of the rectory parlor, while Mrs. Whittridge and Gerald were talking at the farther end of the room.
