"But my dear woman, you can't possibly Judge" "Excuse me, sir, I can Judge about this," said the maid obstinately, "and you would agree with me, directly you knew. Of that I'm sure.

"Why did you tell me at all, then?" he asked her. "Because I shouldn't be honest and not," she answered promptly. "And she's forgot a lot of things lately, Mr. Wells, and let a lot of things go, and and why didn't she mention to me about those Jewels, now? And where are they?" Her face worked painfully. "She hasn't drawn any checks," he said, watching her. "There's a big balance at the bank." "Oh, It's not that 1" she cried impatiently, and then. "Can't you do something, sir?"
