wantedto run away. Yet there were several things in connection with her which
seemedto bode success for him.
And while this had troubled her not a little in

Theres lots of other fellows in the world beside
him. If I hadnt run away, I wouldnt havecaused her all this trouble.

If only she could in some way get a hundredand

alone.
We always got along pretty well, didnt
