"Poor thing, she's done it at last!" cried Patricia compassionately. "Then what happened?" "To accuse them upon insufficient evidence?" They started off, leaving Tom Hughes and Elinor to follow, and Judith, as she cast a searching backward glance at David's chum, whispered to Patricia that he must be very nice and sociable for he seemed just as much at home with Elinor as if she'd been another boy..

The dance was held in a new barn of which the floor was especially good. Indeed the young people of the family had seen to that. Unfortunately the stable end of the building was already in use and this proved to be somewhat inconvenient. During the festivities of the evening one delicate lady fainted from excitement and overpowering stable odors. She speedily revived, however, on being carried into the fresh air and soused with a bucket of cold water. The building was illuminated with lanterns and an occasional oil lamp. Benches were ranged along the walls. The crowd was large and as usual at these affairs men predominated in numbers. The dances were mostly square ones and when a husky caller-off became hoarse and exhausted with shouting, another took his place.

"Let's look at these rooms, Ju," she proposed, with a hand on the heavy curtain at her right. Patricia's heart sank, but she concealed her feelings sufficiently to reassure Miss Jinny, who went on briskly: "No. I'll see Isabella, and hear what she has to say. She loved Maurice, and will aid me to avenge his death." "I saw you in the looking glass!" she cried gleefully. "You needn't think you can surprise us, young lady!".
