Peter Mowbray first saw her at the corner of Palace Square nearest
the river. He was not in the least the kind of young man who
appraises passing women, very far from a starer. At the instant
their eyes met, his thoughts had been occupied with work matters
and the trickery of events. In fact, there was so much to do that
he resented the intrusion, found himself hoping in the first flash
that she would show some flaw to break the attraction. It may have
been that her eyes were called to the passer-by just as his had
been, without warning or volition. In any event their eyes met
full, leisurely in that stirring silence before the consciousness
of self, time, place and convention rushes in. ... Though she
seemed very poor, there was something about her beyond reach in
nobility. He was left with the impression of the whitest skin, the
blackest hair and the reddest lips, but mainly of a gray-eyed
girl-eyes that had become wider and wider, and had filled with
sudden amazement (doubtless at her own answering look) before they
turned away.
MANY years have passed since my wife and I left the United States
to pay our first visit to England. We were provided with letters of
introduction, as a matter of course. Among them there was a letter
which had been written for us by my wife's brother. It presented us

Germaine," my brother-in-law said, when we took leave of him, "at a
very interesting period of his life. My last news of him tells me
that he is just married. I know nothing of the lady, or of the
circumstances under which my friend first met with her. But of this
I am certain: married or single, George Germaine will give you and
your wife a hearty welcome to England, for my sake." The day after
our arrival in London, we left our letter of introduction at the
house of Mr. Germaine.

His name was Sanford Hantee, but you will hear that only
occasionally, for the boys of the back streets called him Skag,
which "got" him somewhere at once. That was in Chicago. He was
eleven years old, when he wandered quite alone to Lincoln Park Zoo,
