CHAPTER XI.
NO BEFITTING NAME.
Happy Belton now began to give serious thought to the question of getting married.

He desired to lead Antoinette to the altar as soon as possible and then he would be sure of possessing the richest treasure known to earth.

And when he would speak of an early marriage she would look happy and say nothing in discouragement of the idea.

She was Belton's, and she did not care how soon he claimed her as his own.
His poverty was his only barrier.

His salary was small, being only fifty dollars a month.
