When Myron left for New York and Ora had moved to his little cracker cottage, with its scant table, bed, and two chairs, the theory was that Tansy was merely coming in to cook for him. She was an orphan, living with an indifferent uncle who let her drift as she would, and one night of relaxed indolence, it was too much trouble to go home, and she rested content beside him on the corn- husk bed, and was glad in the morning when he (for he did have that genius) was neither ashamed nor irritable.
She worshipped him, then, and Myron in him.
