com/E21or Mademoiselle at Arms Threatened with a pistol by the young lady he finds in a deserted mansion, Major Gerald Alderley is intrigued. ‘Only perhaps I can more readily do so if you will put down that pistol. Slowly she released the hammer on the pistol, uncocking it, and Gerald became conscious that he had been holding his breath. Here her strength completely failed her, and she was compelled to seek some repose. She must weigh her situation. She was nestled under his bedspread. 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 had brought her here to this place—where her freedom was curtailed even more than at the convent so that a cavalier was very much needed—and only on Monday came again. If you are going that way, why not join us. Something that is born anew each time we meet, and pines when we are separated. The study seemed absolutely unaltered, there was still the same lamp with a little chip out of the shade, still the same gas fire, still the same bundle of blue and white papers, it seemed, with the same pink tape about them, at the elbow of the arm-chair, still the same father. And at the thought of that other lover—he was convinced that that beloved person was a lover, and she found herself unable to say a word to explain to him that this other person, the person she loved, did not even know of her love—Ramage grew angry and savage once more, and returned suddenly to gibe and insult. For this three weeks had been the hardest of her life.
