an answer did not come with very satisfactory readiness. Even the simple query as to how I was to explain my late neglect to Dwight Pollard occasioned me an hour of anxious thought; and it was not till I remembered that the simplest course was always the best, and that with a snake in the grass like Rhoda Colwell, the most fearless foot trod with the greatest safety, that I felt my difficulties on that score melt away. I would write to Dwight Pollard, and I would tell Rhoda Colwell I had done so, thus proving to her that I meditated nothing underhanded, and could be trusted to say what I would do, and do what I should say.
This decision taken, I sat down immediately and penned the following two notes:
MISS RHODA COLWELL:— Owing to illness, your letter has just been read by me. To it I will simply reply that you are right in believing my regard could never be given to a guilty man. As long as the faintest doubt of Mr. Pollard remains in my mind we are indeed separated by a gulf. But let that doubt in any way be removed,Barn Moncler Vest, and I say to you frankly that nothing you could threaten or the world perform, would prevent my yielding to him the fullest sympathy and the most hearty encouragement.
I send him to-day,Chaussures Nike Air Max Excellerate Homme, in the same mail which carries this,Dame Moncler Tulsa, a few lines, a copy of which I inclose for your perusal.
Yours, CONSTANCE STERLING.
MR. DWIGHT POLLARD:— For two weeks I have been too ill to cross my room, which must account both for this note and the tardiness I have displayed in writing it.
You assert that you know nothing of the causes or manner of a certain catastrophe. I believe you,Piumini Moncler Cezanne, and hope some day to have more than a belief, viz.,Chaussures Air Jordan 3 Retro Femme, a surety of its truth founded on absolute evidence.
Till that time comes we go our several ways, secure in the thought that to the steadfast mind calumny itself loses its sting when met by an earnest purpose to be and do only what is honest and upright.
CONSTANCE STERLING.
If you have any further communication to make to me,PJS Herreklær Lær Parkas, let me request that it be allowed to pass through the hands of Miss Colwell. My reasons for this are well founded.

This something settled matter in his heart,
Whereon his brains still beating,Dame Moncler Armoise, puts him thus
From fashion of himself.

I had not taken this tone with both my correspondents without a secret hope of being able to do something myself towards the establishment of Mr. Pollard’s innocence. How, I could not very plainly perceive that day or the next, but as time elapsed and my brain cleared and my judgment returned,OGC Nice Pas Cher, I at last saw the way to an effort which might not be without consequences of a satisfactory nature. What that effort was you may perhaps conjecture from the fact that the first walk that I took was in the direction of the cottage where Mr. Barrows had formerly lived. The rooms which he had occupied were for rent,Parajumpers Dam Väst, and my ostensible errand was to hire them. The real motive of my visit,AS Monaco Pas Cher, however, was to learn something more of the deceased clergyman’s life and ways than I then knew
