o as you wish with any part of it.
I think I have a better sort of love to offer you than I had before,
just because it includes a knowledge of our weaknesses. I have had to
tell you all this in order that we begin square, but I liked your
letter, and I believe we can come to an understanding. My love for
Hugh Noland is but a memory, but when your letter came I found that
my love for you was a living thing, that I wanted you very much, and
even as I write you these words I want you.
When her writing was finished Elizabeth went to the barn to saddle the
horses, thinking that she would take Jack with her and ride into town to
mail both letters in the cool of the evening. She saddled Jack's pony and
started around the corner of the barn to tie it in the lane, when she saw,
turning into that lane, John Hunter, with a valise in his hand. He had
come in on the noon train and had caught a ride out home with a stranger
passing that way. John saw her and waved his hand, calling to her. To
Elizabeth he was still fair to look upon. She walked toward him holding
out the letters she had written.
