"Would she have gone as far as that to meet you, Miss Phebe ?" "That is very different, Mr.Halloway," answered Phebe, simply.

"I am not worth going so far for.

Besides, I don't expect people ever to do as much for me as I would for them." "Denham, you are cruel," said Mrs.Whittridge.

"Phebe, my child, your love for your friend is to me sufficient proof that she must be lovely.

I know I should love her too." Phebe looked at her gratefully.
