GARDE, when she had questioned her cousin Prudence, until there was little or nothing concerning Adam's visit and farewell at the gate which she did not know, was still far from being certain of anything in connection with the whole predicament.

Yet this comfort grew cold as she reflected that even if Adam did possibly like her as much as he did Prudence, he had written her those incomprehensible lines about burying sorrow, and he had gone away, she knew not where, or in what manner, without even giving her an opportunity of bidding him God-speed.
