How little he
knew about Ruth—the background from which she had sprung! He knew that
her father was a missioner, that her mother was dead, that she had been born on
this island, and that, at the time of his collapse, she had been on the way to an
aunt in the States. He uttered one word over and over, monotonously:
"Fool! … Fool!"
But invariably the touch of Ruth's hand quieted him, and his head would cease to
roll from side to side. She had gladly lowered her eyes as she had been
instructed to in front of the fine ladies and lords, as she
was more interested in their clothing and fripperies than
their faces. "
The doctor had entered the room fully determined to tell the patient the major
part of Ruth's story, to inspire him with proper respect and gratitude. The young man's imagination suddenly pictured the man as a rock,
loosed from its ancient bed, crumbling as it fell. I will remember them,
Sebastian, along with my mother and father, and all the
others I came to love and lose. You can purchase the information from me whenever you're so
disposed.
