CHAPTER IV.
LIZZY GLENN AROUSES THE INTEREST OF A STRANGER.
BERLAPS was leaning over his counter late in the afternoon of the second day from that on which the person calling herself Lizzy Glenn had applied for and obtained work, when a young man entered and asked for some article of dress.

While the tailor was still engaged in waiting upon him, the young woman came in, carrying a small bundle in her hand.

Her vail was drawn over her face as she entered; but was thrown partly aside as she retired to the back part of the store, where she stood awaiting the leisure of the man from whom she had obtained work.

As she passed him, the customer turned and looked at her earnestly for a moment or two, and then asked in a whisper-- "Who is that ?" "Only one of our sewing-girls," replied Berlaps, indifferently.
"What is her name ?" "I forget.

She's a girl to whom we gave out work day before yesterday." This paused the man to look at her more attentively.
