A rumor went over the town that Isabel Hreu ner'a face wua the charm that chained him there; later, their eugiigeiuent inn announced. Janet had aged perceptibly since hia return, and ahe atuid away altogether from the Aid Soeiety, not even going out upon the at reel except in the dusk of the evening, feuring, with Kome thlng of n wild terror, that ahe might meet him, yet hungering for u aigbt of hia face with pasaionate longing.
