Excerpt from Wheels and Whims: An Etching It was with slow, weary steps, at a late hour, that Mar gery Prescott mounted the winding stairs to her room. Entering, she turned the key. Touching the electric chain attached to the chandelier, the instantaneous ¿ood of light illumined her pale face, a paleness of which she felt conscious, for she stepped quickly to the long mirror which stood between the gas jets. Turning on their full blaze, she looked closely at her image in the glass. Then, straightening up, tall and defiant, she said in a strained voice, Now tell the tale if you dare! For the first time in her young life, she felt a sore pain in her heart, which brought this pallor to her cheek.
