CHAPTER II
7/7

"Blanche!" I stammered feebly.
"The same," she replied.
"You here ?" "Yes, dear; but hush! It's a long story.

"Of course not," said Blanche, with her old sweet smile; "you've had brain-fever; so go to sleep." I understood, however, that Blanche loved me; and I am now, dear reader, Sir Terence Sackville, K.C.B., and Lady Blanche is Lady Sackville.
