The soft footfalls overhead ceased. The long hush had brought the
two women to the door where they stood sobbing. Oliver was on his
knees beside the bed, his head buried in his arms. On the face so
near him there rested a ray from the westering sun; but the
glitter was gone from the eye and the unrest from the heart. No
more weary vigils in a room dedicated to remorse and self-
punishment. No more weary circling of the house in the dark lane
whose fences barred out the hurrying figure within from every eye
but that of Heaven. Peace for him; and for Reuther and Oliver,
hope!

Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US
unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we usually do not
keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,
even years after the official publication date.
