I started to ask after another who had been in the riot, but I could not frame the question. I saw that Marvel knew what I wished. I learned afterward that I had talked of her constantly during my delirium. She was well, he told me. She had not been hurt, nor had the child or old Loewen. She had left the city. Her father was involved now in a great lawsuit, the object of which Marvel did not know, and she had gone away. "Where has she gone?" He did not answer, and I took it for granted that he did not know. "If I had been you, I would have found out where she went to," I said peevishly. He took no notice of this. He only smiled. He did not say so; but I thought from his manner that she had gone abroad. He had had a note from her saying that she would be away a long time, and inclosing him a generous contribution for his poor. "She is an angel," he said. "Of course she is." Though he spoke reverently, I was almost angry with him for thinking it necessary to say it at all. "Yes; but you do not know how good she is. None but God knows how good some women are." One or two other pieces of news he told me. The old Drummer and his wife had gone off, too; but only on a visit to Elsa. Elsa and Otto had been married, and were living in another State. I saw that he still had something else to tell, and finally it came out. As soon as I was able, I must go away for a while. I needed change and rest, and he knew the very place for me, away off in the country. "You appear to be anxious to depopulate the city," I said. He only smiled contentedly. "I am going to send you to the country," he said with calm decision. "I have to work----" "When you come back. I have made all the arrangements." "I am going to find Eleanor Leigh. I will find her if the world holds her." "Yes, to be sure," he smiled indulgently. He was so strong that I yielded. I learned that a good offer was waiting for me to go into the law office of one of the large firms when I should be well enough to work, in a capacity which Jeams would have termed that of a "minor connectee"; but it was coupled with the condition that I should get well first. My speech at the meeting when I denounced Wringman, and my part in the riots, had become known, and friends had interested themselves in my behalf. So John Marvel reported; and as he appeared to be managing things, I assumed that he had done this, too.
