A wife separated from her husband,--why, good gracious, just think of it, Archibald!" "Do you suppose I haven't thought of it ?" demanded the rector.

"I don't believe it will do any good for me to see him, but of course I shall go to Lockhaven unless I get a favorable answer to my letter.
I wrote him yesterday.

But do you imagine that any talk of our feelings is going to move a man like Ward?
His will is like iron.

I saw that in his letter to Helen.

I suppose it pains him to do this.
