said simply with a look allow me to say that you iiavc gotten an entirely false idea of the whole thing chris interpolated autn- oritatively and impatiently this all nonsense your daughter tojk part in a little masquerade and ac cept for her brother following her and causing a lot of police interfer ence nothing would have come of it at all police interference echoed the mothers voice after the shooting yes but the whole thing chris explained briskly has been closed up its done theres no followup whatever it was all ex ticmely foolish and we got a bad break but its over your sons wound practically healed i believe he takes off the bandages in a few days and as for your daughter here mary she played her part with a beautiful dig nity and lived up to her agreement absolutely as for anything else i never put my hand on her shell tel you so i never kissed her and furthermore cass addei unexpectedly mary kate and i are going to be married and the sooner the better when she tells me that everything was all on the level i be lieve her the whole thing was a mis take but we all make them and as far as im concerned im never going to allude to it again i told you that because its true

fools that thy send out to saint catherines i knew what i was doing and i thought it would be just fun and that mart could go to germany with doctor van antwerp even if i got married i wasnt led astray mary kate as sured her brother fiercely ive been working in a downtown office two years i finished high school i know about life it seems to me that this whole thing has arisen from the fact that mr ohara here put the worst pos sible construction upon what his sis ter did chris said coolly martin shot him a contemptuous look but before her son could speak mrs ohara answered him it was very easy to put that same construction upon what she did sir she reminded him with simple dignity mart only thought what the world would think and we have to remember the world we live in the world mary kate did very wrong but whod know the true good heart of her her moth er said tenderly with a downward glance at the bright head on her breast if her own mother did not shes never refused one of
