When Dare was face to face with Pamela Arnott he decided that Mrs Carruthers had exaggerated the want of look about which she had written: there was nothing to excite sympathy, or even comment, in the faintly flushed, pleasantly excited face which turned eagerly to greet him, as, on entering the Carruthers' drawing-room, Pamela's eyes singled him out with a smiling welcome in their blue depths. keywords: arnott; blanche; carruthers; children; dare; day; dear; eyes; face; feeling; girl; good; hand; home; let; life; little; look; love; maitland; man; matter; mind; moment; mrs; pamela; people; right; room; things; thought; time; want; way; wife; wish; woman; years cache: 37261.txt plain text: 37261.txt item: #3 of 7 id: 38054 author: Marsh, Richard title: A Duel date: None words: 93485 flesch: 87 summary: I think, Mr. Lamb, I understood you to say that Mrs. Lamb was married to you before she met Cuthbert Grahame?
