CHAPTER XLIV.
STUDENTS' RACKETS.
Inza Burrage came back to New Haven with Miss Gale. Frank discovered she was there by seeing her on the street. He started to join her and speak, but she entered a store, and he lost her.
That evening he started out to call on her, resolved to have a talk with her and come to a complete understanding, if she would see him.
He knew where Miss Gale was stopping, and he made his way to the house by a roundabout course, thinking over what he would say in case Inza consented to see him.
As he approached the house he saw some one ascending the steps. The person going up the steps carried a cane.
Frank halted abruptly.
"Marline!" he whispered.
It was his rival.
Rob rang the bell and was admitted to the house.
