A week or two passed and Virgie appeared to be improving, when, one morning, there came a cablegram from Heathdale, announcing that the dowager Lady Heath was alarmingly ill, and imploring the baronet's immediate return if he desired to see her alive. The message threw the young husband into a distressing state of mind.
But he found nothing in any of the booking offices of the different steamers to tell him that Virgie had sailed, or was intending to sail, even though he haunted them daily for three or four weeks. Almost discouraged at the end of that time, he cabled to his sister the following message: "I have missed my wife perhaps crossed her path. If she arrives at Heathdale, let me know at once."
