Elsie and Clifford talked a good deal at breakfast of the attempt to ester the house; and I tould see that Elsie's nervousness had its effect on him. "Mildred isn't at all nervous," he said after one of her outbursts, "See how calmly she takes it." "Don't fool yourself! she isn't as calm as she seems. She was frightened almost to death last night.
