So
,
that
night
Dicky
sat
by
the
window
of
the
room
over
his
shop
and
his
little
saint
sat
close
by
,
working
at
something
silken
and
dainty
.
Dicky
was
thoughtful
and
grave
.
His
red
hair
was
in
an
unusual
state
of
disorder
.
Pasa
's
fingers
often
ached
to
smooth
and
arrange
it
,
but
Dicky
would
never
allow
it
.
He
was
poring
,
to-night
,
over
a
great
litter
of
maps
and
books
and
papers
on
his
table
until
that
perpendicular
line
came
between
his
brows
that
always
distressed
Pasa
.
Presently
she
went
and
brought
his
hat
,
and
stood
with
it
until
he
looked
up
,
inquiringly
.
"
It
is
sad
for
you
here
,
"
she
explained
.
"
Go
out
and
drink
vino
blanco
.
Come
back
when
you
get
that
smile
you
used
to
wear
.
That
is
what
I
wish
to
see
.
"
Dicky
laughed
and
threw
down
his
papers
.
"
The
vino
blanco
stage
is
past
.
It
has
served
its
turn
Perhaps
,
after
all
,
there
was
less
entered
my
mouth
and
more
my
ears
than
people
thought
.
But
,
there
will
be
no
more
maps
or
frowns
to-night
.
I
promise
you
that
.
Come
.
"
They
sat
upon
a
reed
silleta
at
the
window
and
watched
the
quivering
gleams
from
the
lights
of
the
Catarina
reflected
in
the
harbour
.
Presently
Pasa
rippled
out
one
of
her
infrequent
chirrups
of
audible
laughter
.
"
I
was
thinking
,
"
she
began
,
anticipating
Dicky
's
question
,
"
of
the
foolish
things
girls
have
in
their
minds
.
Because
I
went
to
school
in
the
States
I
used
to
have
ambitions
.
Nothing
less
than
to
be
the
president
's
wife
would
satisfy
me
.
And
,
look
,
thou
red
picaroon
,
to
what
obscure
fate
thou
hast
stolen
me
!
"
"
Do
n't
give
up
hope
,
"
said
Dicky
,
smiling
.
"
More
than
one
Irishman
has
been
the
ruler
of
a
South
American
country
.
There
was
a
dictator
of
Chili
named
O'Higgins
.
Why
not
a
President
Maloney
,
of
Anchuria
?
Say
the
word
,
santita
mia
,
and
we
'll
make
the
race
.
"
"
No
,
no
,
no
,
thou
red-haired
,
reckless
one
!
"
sighed
Pasa
;
"
I
am
content
"
--
she
laid
her
head
against
his
arm
--
"
here
.
"
It
has
been
indicated
that
disaffection
followed
the
elevation
of
Losada
to
the
presidency
.
This
feeling
continued
to
grow
.
Throughout
the
entire
republic
there
seemed
to
be
a
spirit
of
silent
,
sullen
discontent
.
Even
the
old
Liberal
party
to
which
Goodwin
,
Zavalla
and
other
patriots
had
lent
their
aid
was
disappointed
.
Losada
had
failed
to
become
a
popular
idol
.
Fresh
taxes
,
fresh
import
duties
and
,
more
than
all
,
his
tolerance
of
the
outrageous
oppression
of
citizens
by
the
military
had
rendered
him
the
most
obnoxious
president
since
the
despicable
Alforan
.
The
majority
of
his
own
cabinet
were
out
of
sympathy
with
him
.
The
army
,
which
he
had
courted
by
giving
it
license
to
tyrannize
,
had
been
his
main
,
and
thus
far
adequate
support
.
