There is a girl for to see him, if he will let.

The boy, Jigger, his name.

Something happens." Stafford frowned, then turned to Jasmine.

He told her who Jigger was, and of the incident the day before, adding that he had no idea of the reason for the visit; but it must be important, or nothing would have induced his servant to fetch the girl.
"I will come," he said to Krool, but Jasmine's curiosity was roused.
"Won't you see her here ?" she asked.
Stafford nodded assent, and presently Krool showed the girl into the room.
For an instant she stood embarrassed and confused, then she addressed herself to Stafford.

"I'm Lou--Jigger's sister," she said, with white lips.
