A s tim e w e n t on E d g ar p erceived
th a t E d ith w a s g ro w in g to be a neces­
sity to R alph. M oreover, be n o ticed
th a t w h ile E d ith w a s devoted to R alph,
th e re w ere in d ic a tio n s th a t h e r h e a rt
w as s e ttin g to w a rd him self. O ne day
w hen he an d E d ith w ere sp e ak in g of
R alph E d g a r said to her.
"I feel it m y d u ty to sa y to you,
E d ith , th a t I h av e seen w h a t p erh a p s
h as p assed u n n o ticed by you. R alp h
loves yo u .”
T h e girl paled, a n d sh e had cau se to
pale. S he loved E d g a r an d sh e knew
t h a t w hile h is b ro th er held th is view ,
E d g a r w a s lost to her. H e w ou ld n ev ­
e r s ta n d b etw een his b ro th e r a n d her.
"I hope,” sh e said p resen tly , ‘‘th a t
you a re m ista k e n .”
“ A nd I hope,” said E d g ar, “ if you
th in k you can n o t respond, th a t you a re
m ista k e n O ur a tte n tio n s to th o se d e ­
p en d e n t upon us o ften d ra w u s to th em
w’ith f a r g re a te r force th a n w e re a liz e .”
E d ith sighed. She knew t h a t th e
m an sh e loved w as en d eav o rin g to
p ersu a d e h e r to give h erself to th e m an
sh e on ly pitied. B u t she sa id n o th in g

h av e h e r do. She did n o t k n o w his
feelin g s tow’a rd her, b u t sh e su rm ise d
th a t he h ad no d esire to p o ssess h er
him self.
E ven if h e h ad h e would
giv e h e r u p to h is b ro th er.

Soon a f te r th is b rie f d ialo g u e E d g a r
w e n t aw a y fo r a tim e, leav in g E d ith
an d R alp h to g eth er. B efore his d e­
p a rtu re he said to E d ith , “ I hope w hen
I re tu rn to find th a t you h av e decid ed
to m ak e R alph happy.”
It w as th u s th a t E dith w as led to
b e a r a p a rt of th e b u rd en of th e m an
sh e loved by giv in g h erself to th e m an
sh e d id n o t love. She co n sid ered w h a t
he had said to h e r a co m m an d , and
she would n o t disobey. W hen E d g ar
re tu rn e d she told him th a t sh e an d
R alp h w ere engaged.
She looked E d g a r in th e ey e w hen
she m ade th e an n o u n cem en t, h o p in g lo
see him wince. If it w as a shock to
him he concealed It so well th a t she
w as deceived.
F ro m th a t tim e she
gave h erself up m ore an d m ore to
R alp h ’s com panionship, and w h en th e
i w edding d ay cam e w en t w ith him to
th e a lta r a m arty r.
T h en E d g ar, feelin g th a t his b ro th e r

j Som e said he did not d a re t r u s t bim-
