That evening the little party met at six o'clock in Mr.Southard's dressing room, where their dinner was brought in and served to them.

Afterward Kathleen, Miss Southard and Evelyn sat in a box and saw Everett Southard and Anne in "The Merchant of Venice." After the theater came a little supper at the Southards' home to which Mr.Vernon, Kathleen's fiance, was also invited.

Miss Southard had insisted that Kathleen and Evelyn should be her guests for the remainder of their stay in New York, and it was under the Southards' hospitable roof that Evelyn fell asleep that night after one of the happiest, most eventful days she had ever spent.
Sunday morning soon slipped by.

It seemed hardly half an hour from breakfast until train time.

The charming informality with which the actor and his sister treated her made Evelyn feel as though she had known them for a very long time.
