"You have, but I have not. I have not forgotten that you put me out of your house ignominiously as one turns out a servant. I have neither forgotten nor forgiven. That is why you are here to-day."

"What do you mean?"
He bowed and, with mock courtesy, waved her to a seat.
"I will tell you. Did you receive a letter to-day?"
"Yes—I did."
"You came here in answer to that letter."
"Yes—I did."
"Do you know who wrote that letter?"
"No—not the least."
