Most
men
are
!
"
she
replied
quietly
.
"
You
are
indeed
an
enthusiastic
partisan
of
hers
!
"
I
exclaimed
,
somewhat
surprised
.
"
Yes
,
I
suppose
I
am
.
I
like
to
see
any
member
of
my
sex
distinguish
herself
as
nobly
as
she
does
.
I
have
no
genius
of
my
own
,
and
that
is
one
of
the
reasons
why
I
honour
it
so
much
in
other
women
.
"
I
was
about
to
make
some
suitable
compliment
by
way
of
response
to
this
remark
,
when
we
were
all
violently
startled
from
our
seats
by
a
most
horrible
cry
--
a
gasping
scream
such
as
might
be
wrung
from
some
tortured
animal
.
Aghast
at
the
sound
we
stood
for
a
moment
inert
,
staring
at
Rimânez
,
who
came
quickly
towards
us
with
an
air
of
grave
concern
.
"
I
am
afraid
,
"
he
said
softly
--
"
that
the
Countess
is
not
so
well
--
perhaps
you
had
better
go
to
her
--
"
Another
shriek
interrupted
his
words
,
and
transfixed
with
horror
we
saw
Lady
Elton
struggling
in
the
throes
of
some
sudden
and
terrific
convulsion
,
her
hands
beating
the
air
as
if
she
were
fighting
with
an
unseen
enemy
.
In
one
second
her
face
underwent
such
hideous
contortions
as
robbed
it
of
all
human
semblance
,
and
between
the
agonized
pantings
of
her
difficult
breath
,
her
half-choked
voice
could
be
heard
uttering
wild
cries
--
"
Mercy
!
--
mercy
!
--
oh
God
--
God
!
Tell
Sibyl
!
--
pray
--
pray
to
God
--
pray
--
"
And
with
that
she
fell
heavily
back
,
speechless
and
unconscious
.
All
was
instant
confusion
.
Lady
Sibyl
rushed
to
her
mother
's
side
,
with
Miss
Charlotte
--
Diana
Chesney
hung
back
trembling
and
afraid
--
Lord
Elton
sprang
to
the
bell
and
rang
it
furiously
.
"
Fetch
the
doctor
!
"
he
cried
to
the
startled
servant
--
"
Lady
Elton
has
had
another
shock
!
She
must
be
taken
to
her
room
at
once
!
"
