As Hendrickson had rightly supposed, Jessie Loring came forth from her seclusion of years.

Not all at once, but by gradual intrusions upon the social life around her.

At first she went abroad on a mission of charity.

Then her friend Mrs.De Lisle, drew her to her house, and there a new face that interested her awakened a new impulse in her mind.

And so the work went on, and ere long she was in part restored to society.
