Alderman Dunstable, of the Borough
Council of Marylebone. Too many. Things happen to women—proper women—and all they have to do is to
take them well. “You are Mademoiselle Pellissier?” he asked, without rising to his feet. She attacked me with a carving-knife, and,
when I had disarmed her, the jade bit off a couple of fingers from my left hand. I’ve had the rarest luck and fallen on my
feet. ”
He referred to a sheet of paper by his side. A strange betrothal!—the primal idea of which was escape! The girl, intent upon
abrogating for ever all legal rights of the father in the daughter, of rendering
innocuous the thing she had now named the Terror: the boy, seeking selfcrucifixion in expiation of his transgression, changing a peccadillo into
damnation!
It was easy for Ruth to surrender to the idea, for she believed she was loved; and
in gratitude it was already her determination to give this boy her heart's blood,
drop by drop, if he wanted it. There was a great splash of blood upon it, her hand was all
wet and sticky. Except for one memorable school excursion to Paris, Ann Veronica had never
yet been outside England.
