Valley eyes over her childhood losses and disappointments. Alick watched her intently, joining in her plea- sure and sympathising with her as she told of her sorrows. His heart swelled in his breast and a great longing filled the soul of him. Her frankness carried him away, her agile beauty captivated him and the hunger in her eyes drew him as a magnet. He did not interrupt her as she talked on. She seemed almost to have forgotten his presence in the thrall of her reminiscences. She told him ho...w her father had taught her to play on the violin hour by hour, day by day, until at last he had had to confess that he had imparted to her all he knew and that the pupil was now master of the teacher: how, one day, there came a stout, well-dressed, showy, fancy-waist-coated and gold- ringed individual, offering her father and her more wealth than they had known for years if they would only go on tour, and how she had held out against it, because her father's health was gone and could not stand the travel and further because she would never prostitute the art she so loved for the sake of monetary gain, even if, by so doing, she should be thought old-fashioned and should starve in the process.
