"Is there a Roman Catholic church here?"

"No. But there is one at Cornpool. I know Father John; he is my confessor."

"How often do you confess?"

"I do not like to say," she replied, timidly; "it is not often enough."

"Once a year?"

"Oh, Arthur, no! Once a month."

"So often?"

"So often! I should confess by right once a week. Would you mind me going to Father John?"

"No."

Let me say this concession was only an act of policy. I determined to try to convert her.
