for instance, the girl at the piano, only to find she was the woman

upstairs. And he wondered, too, if that were true, why he should have

had to clear out. So many men married the sort Audrey had been, in

Chris's little study, only to find that after all the thing they had

after all.

He missed her, somewhat later. She was gone a full half hour, and he

fancied her absence had something to do with the money she had borrowed.
