Thecrows-feet about his eyes came from much
laughter. The detective will place himunder arrest and take him to the
city.
A long while she cried, her feeling of helplessness
and impotencepoignant.
Ruth did wash the dishes, leaving the men to
themselves. Till Abe came back, all action was transferred to Ruth. McCrae, becoming
aware of this furtherpresence, turned to the man by his side.
The law was supposed to be just; if it was,it would
protect her.
To their left, the train was slowingdown for the
stop at the station, two hundred yards ahead.
A fewpassengers alighted as the buggy passed in the
rear of thebuildings. Her other children,too, must be protected from even the
knowledge of this thing. Very well, said the voice at the other end of the wire. You
can get an arrest on any kind of a charge.
At four oclock, Ruth met Mary on
Broadway.
Ruth did not even think of rising for her
dinner.
Ruth sat with Mary in the front; Frances in the
tonneau,dressed as for a conquest. At the house Ruth came down the steps as the car
came to a stop.
She felt sorryfor him; more than she could express.

Her conveyance she left at the livery stable. Abe
will hear of it in anycase: the question is merely from whom.
Too late to think of that, Ruth replied and turned
away. Unless he can live on his farm as in the wilderness, he will haveto leave. If
what has happened to yourdaughter had happened to mine, I should not
proceed.
It has been run in opposition to its naturalleader.
To protect Abe was no longer an issue withRuth. May I ask what your purpose is in
proceeding against the man? At the stable, Ruth and the doctor remained in their
seats whileAbe fetched the horse.
