- II
- VICTOR INTERROGATES HIS MOTHER
- Oppressed by the silence, Victor called out, "Mother, are you here?"
- The man replied, "We came to have a sitting."
- Victor caught her by the arm. "What are you going to do?"
- He nodded. "Yes, I've done that as a boy."
- III
- VICTOR MAKES A TEST
- He was interested. "By the way, who is Miss Wood?"
- IV
- VICTOR THROWS DOWN THE ALTAR
- He was properly surprised. "Yes, I did meet such a man."
- He rose. "You go. I will come after dinner and bring you home."
- VICTOR RECEIVES A WARNING
- She gazed upon him in large-eyed wonder. "Yes, don't you?"
- She hesitated a little before saying "Commodore Vanderbilt."
- She persisted. "Paul, come to me! Tell me what to do. Please come!"
- VI
- VICTOR IS CHECKED IN HIS FLIGHT
- A boy's voice answered, "What ye want, maw?"
- Sill eyed him keenly. "Do you mean that you quarreled?"
- Mrs. Joyce was instant in inquiry. "How is she, Doctor?"
- She warned him: "You must remember she was accustomed to these trances."
- Mrs. Joyce started. "Where did that come from?"
- Leo replied, "It developed right out of the air."
- VII
- THE RETURN OF THE SPIRIT
- Again Mrs. Joyce clutched him. "Be careful! Sit down; don't stir!"
- VIII
- VICTOR REPAIRS HIS MOTHER'S ALTAR
- She smiled. "Don't you? Why not?"
- Pettus turned away. "I can find her without your aid."
- He changed the subject. "Did that man Pettus call just now?"
- He frowned. "Don't say 'seance.' I hate that word."
- A sibilant whisper replied, "_Yes, soon._"
- She did not reply, and Mrs. Joyce explained. "She is gone."
- Mrs. Joyce whispered in ecstasy, "It is Altair!"
- IX
- THE LAW'S DELAY
- He pretended not to see the joke. "St. Joe; why St. Joe?"
- He pretended to be astonished. "You would not? Why?"
- He did not share her apprehension. "I don't think they'll suffer."
- Victor was white and rigid with indignation. "Where did they take her?"
- Victor sat down beside his mother, whispering, "What is it all about?"
- The judge turned to Mrs. Ollnee. "Is this true?"
- The judge spoke to Mrs. Joyce. "You believe in this woman's Voices?"
- Mr. Bartol interposed. "We demand a trial by jury, your honor."
- A VISIT TO HAZEL GROVE
- Victor groaned. "Oh, mother, why did you give out _business_ advice!"
- At last he said: "Go on. I am listening."
- The whisper grew fainter. "_I will try. It is hard. Good-by._"
- The ticking continued. "I wonder if that _is_ a fly?"
- The tick counted one, two, three--"_Yes._"
- He hesitated before asking the next question. "Is it Altair?"
- He thought again. "Is it Walter Bartol?"
- The answer was joyously instant. "_Yes, yes, yes!_"
- XI
- LOVE'S TRANSLATION
- She recovered first. "Now let's stop this school-boy chatter--"
- She looked at him with side glance. "You're not in the least subtle."
- Mrs. Joyce cut her short. "Skurry to your room. We must not be late."
- XII
- A MOONLIGHT CALL AND A VISION
- Victor looked at her dazedly. "I didn't hear anybody. Proceed."
- She professed concern. "And leave Lucy unguarded?"
- She was ready with an answer. "Plain down-right impudence."
- Interest awoke in him. "What does she want of me?"
- She listened. "She says, '_Trust Mr. Bartol._'"
- XIII
- VICTOR TESTS HIS THEORY
- Mrs. Joyce met him in the hall, excited, eager. "What did he say?"
- Mrs. Joyce promptly said, "We can't desert the ship now, Leo."
- She gave in at last. "Well, if you will send for the things I need--"
- She raised an amused glance. "What? What will you do, boy?"
- She beat upon him, pushed him with her small hands. "Let me go, brute!"
- XIV
- THE ORDEAL
- Leo laughed. "You're psychic, that's what's the matter with you."
- Mrs. Ollnee shook her head. "No, I am all right."
- She colored a little. "Forget that and I'll forgive you."
- Mrs. Joyce exclaimed, "You do not intend to cage her in that?"
- As there was no reply, Mrs. Joyce asked, "Is it you, Mr. Blodgett?"
- XV
- THE RING
- She recoiled a little before the thought. "Of course not--but--"
- She looked at him in startled thought. "What do you mean?"
- Her lip curled in a wondering smile. "What a question to ask of me!"
- XVI
- CONCLUSION
- She became radiant. "Didn't you?"
- Her eyes widened in wonder. "What do you mean?"
- Again he betrayed restlessness. "Mr. Stinchfield noticed that."
- She urged him to unbosom himself. "You have a conviction? What is it?"
- She stared at him. "And you accept that?"
- He went on, "I am sure you meant well."
