Trennahan, whom Lady Victoria liked she could not stand Mrs. Hofer promised a daily visit; and an automobile trip to the south as soon as the doctor would permit. It was nearly a week before Isabel, who had sat up with Gwynne during the first two nights, and been on the rush ever since, was able to return to her ranch.

It was about halfway through dinner that the primitive man in him routed every variety of apprehension that had tormented him since two o'clock that afternoon. Trennahan, another distinguished New Yorker, who had made his home in California for many years, had taken in Mrs. Gwynne, and his Spanish California wife sat at the foot of the table with the host.

Gwynne liked them both as well as any people he had met in California, and engaged the beautiful Inez who would seem to have embodied all her mother's old passionate longing for physical loveliness to dance several times with him at the great ball which was to be the medium of her introduction to society. "I am still old-fashioned," Mrs. Trennahan confided to Gwynne, with a sigh.

And this is the first time, for heaven knows how many years, that anything has interested me. I shall stay till the last minute; and surely no fire could climb this hill. Did I tell you that Mr. Trennahan came up at once and asked me to go to Menlo Park with them? Ungrateful but I have not thought of it since." Isabel announced her intention to take a nap.
