What they saw seemed to satisfy them.

Their hands reached out simultaneously and met in a firm clasp.
"Will you kiss me, Grace ?" was what Eleanor said.
"With all my heart," was the answer.

And with that kiss all resentment and hard feeling died out forever.
"You are surely going to stay with me to-night," coaxed Eleanor.

"We will send word to your mother." But with Eleanor's remark the remembrance of her promise to her mother came back with a rush.
"Good gracious, Eleanor! I promised mother that I'd be home at nine o'clock.

What time is it now ?" "It's half past ten," replied Eleanor, consulting her watch.
"Poor Bridget," mourned Grace.
