Forgive pencil andscrawl. Am sitting up in bed to write. -- Your sincere friend, "Z. D. "P. S. --Please burn this. " At that final injunction, the Duke abandoned himself to his mirth. "Please burn this. " Poor dear young woman, how modest she was in theglare of her diplomacy! Why there was nothing, not one phrase, tocompromise her in the eyes of a coroner's jury! . . . Seriously, shehad good reason to be proud of her letter. For the purpose in view itcouldn't have been better done. That was wha...t made it so touchinglyabsurd. He put himself in her position. He pictured himself as her, "sitting up in bed, " pencil in hand, to explain away, to soothe, toclinch and bind . . . Yes, if he had happened to be some other man--one whom her insult might have angered without giving love itsdeath-blow, and one who could be frightened out of not keeping hisword--this letter would have been capital. He helped himself to some more marmalade, and poured out another cupof coffee. Nothing is more thrilling, thought he, than to be treatedas a cully by the person you hold in the hollow of your hand.
