Mrs. Harcourt remained fifteen minutes longer, receiving a large check from Mr. Stormleigh, which she deposited to her credit in the Park National Bank.
“What are your plans, my dear Mrs. Harcourt?” asked the banker. “Shall you remain in America?”
“I am not sure. I may go back to Europe, taking Edwin with me.”
“Is he at school?”
“I shall probably place him at school, but my plans are not fully formed.”
“He does not appear to have any resemblance to the late Mr. Harcourt.”
“Boys often change in looks as they get older.”
“True.”
“And you have not seen Edwin for several years.”
“And then I only had a glimpse of him.”
