Harris inquired, apparently unmoved by the news of Mr. Gorham's absence. "I could scarcely say that I am unfamiliar with them," Covington admitted; "but the idea of the merger was Mr.
The boy paused for breath and waited, expecting to hear Gorham's stern reproaches, but none came. The amazed expression both on Eleanor's and Alice's faces, however, evidenced the heresy of his words. "I suppose I am forfeiting all which this family means to me by my seeming disloyalty to you, Mr. Gorham; but I honestly feel that I am more loyal than if I played the hypocrite.
"No, he oughtn't" but the door had slammed, and Patricia was alone with her Knights. Alice tiptoed into Mrs. Gorham's room, then started to withdraw as Eleanor appeared to be asleep, but the older woman stopped her. "Come in, dear," she said; "I am only resting."
