Said Prudence, with commendable human kindness: "My sister and I are going on to Shanghai and Peking. And what will they do, and where will they go?" "With me—the both of them. You see, aunt, it’s the only possible way for me to get a good degree in my subjects, and father won’t hear of it. He can cure all diseases of the flesh as I taught him. And Leonardo told me never to trust any man. You deal with her. He was an odd one, especially for a young man. "Ruth?" "Hoddy!" she cried. All that I regret are the wasted years, and I am not sure that I regret them. How little he knew about Ruth—the background from which she had sprung! He knew that her father was a missioner, that her mother was dead, that she had been born on this island, and that, at the time of his collapse, she had been on the way to an aunt in the States. It hit her just above the knee. He removed his cigarette from his lips and waved it gently in the air. The Dawn Pearl! To be with her constantly, with no diversions to serve as barricades! Damn McClintock for putting this thought in his head—that Ruth loved him! He flung himself upon the beach, face downward, his outflung hands digging into the sand: which was oddly like his problem—he could not grip it.
