Send word to Mr.John Karpathy, and tell him to come to me at once.

I have something very serious to say to him, which admits of no delay.
Send immediately.
"Your affectionate kinswoman, "FANNY." What was the meaning of it?
What had happened?
When had there been time for anything to happen?
They had had their coffee so nicely and quietly together, whispering so confidentially all the time, and kissed each other's hands at parting.

Mr.Boltay did not understand it at all.
But Teresa began to understand.
So they had to send at once to John Karpathy.

Who was to go?
Boltay resolved to go himself.

He had good legs, and would be there in a moment.
