Yes, Stephen, I say it, and hold to it, that it is our women who are at the root and bottom of these horrible misdeeds."

Montgomery's, and before he sat down he began to say: "I want to ask your advice, Miss Saunders, about what I shall do with my sketch of Miss Maybough." Cornelia blenched, for no reason that she could think of; she could not gasp out the "Yes" that she tried to utter. "You see," he went on, "I know that I've disappointed Mrs.

"I guess Grace Montgomery's father has nothing to do with me. But I have seen him before." "You have?" returned Jennie, in turn surprised. "Yes. Last year just about this time.
