Excerpt from Marplot Cupid: With Illustrations
At the last words the dog's mien changed from the sudden self-abasement; he arose proudly, and, with a mute appeal for pardon, resumed his position in the bow with grave dignity.
A few minutes later the boat reached shore, and, springing lightly out, Kate extended her hand to the dusky figure waiting to deliver a package of letters.
