And
so
,
now
,
in
these
last
trying
hours
,
he
wished
to
see
her
much
--
and
did
--
meeting
her
at
least
four
times
in
the
month
in
which
he
had
been
free
,
between
his
conviction
and
the
final
dismissal
of
his
appeal
.
He
had
one
last
opportunity
of
seeing
her
--
and
she
him
--
just
before
his
entrance
into
prison
this
last
time
--
on
the
Saturday
before
the
Monday
of
his
sentence
.
He
had
not
come
in
contact
with
her
since
the
decision
of
the
Supreme
Court
had
been
rendered
,
but
he
had
had
a
letter
from
her
sent
to
a
private
mail-box
,
and
had
made
an
appointment
for
Saturday
at
a
small
hotel
in
Camden
,
which
,
being
across
the
river
,
was
safer
,
in
his
judgment
,
than
anything
in
Philadelphia
.
He
was
a
little
uncertain
as
to
how
she
would
take
the
possibility
of
not
seeing
him
soon
again
after
Monday
,
and
how
she
would
act
generally
once
he
was
where
she
could
not
confer
with
him
as
often
as
she
chose
.
And
in
consequence
,
he
was
anxious
to
talk
to
her
.
But
on
this
occasion
,
as
he
anticipated
,
and
even
feared
,
so
sorry
for
her
was
he
,
she
was
not
less
emphatic
in
her
protestations
than
she
had
ever
been
;
in
fact
,
much
more
so
.
When
she
saw
him
approaching
in
the
distance
,
she
went
forward
to
meet
him
in
that
direct
,
forceful
way
which
only
she
could
attempt
with
him
,
a
sort
of
mannish
impetuosity
which
he
both
enjoyed
and
admired
,
and
slipping
her
arms
around
his
neck
,
said
:
"
Honey
,
you
need
n't
tell
me
.
I
saw
it
in
the
papers
the
other
morning
.
Do
n't
you
mind
,
honey
.
I
love
you
.
I
'll
wait
for
you
.
I
'll
be
with
you
yet
,
if
it
takes
a
dozen
years
of
waiting
.
It
does
n't
make
any
difference
to
me
if
it
takes
a
hundred
,
only
I
'm
so
sorry
for
you
,
sweetheart
.
I
'll
be
with
you
every
day
through
this
,
darling
,
loving
you
with
all
my
might
.
"
She
caressed
him
while
he
looked
at
her
in
that
quiet
way
which
betokened
at
once
his
self-poise
and
yet
his
interest
and
satisfaction
in
her
.
He
could
n't
help
loving
Aileen
,
he
thought
who
could
?
She
was
so
passionate
,
vibrant
,
desireful
.
He
could
n't
help
admiring
her
tremendously
,
now
more
than
ever
,
because
literally
,
in
spite
of
all
his
intellectual
strength
,
he
really
could
not
rule
her
.
She
went
at
him
,
even
when
he
stood
off
in
a
calm
,
critical
way
,
as
if
he
were
her
special
property
,
her
toy
.
She
would
talk
to
him
always
,
and
particularly
when
she
was
excited
,
as
if
he
were
just
a
baby
,
her
pet
;
and
sometimes
he
felt
as
though
she
would
really
overcome
him
mentally
,
make
him
subservient
to
her
,
she
was
so
individual
,
so
sure
of
her
importance
as
a
woman
.
Now
on
this
occasion
she
went
babbling
on
as
if
he
were
broken-hearted
,
in
need
of
her
greatest
care
and
tenderness
,
although
he
really
was
n't
at
all
;
and
for
the
moment
she
actually
made
him
feel
as
though
he
was
.
"
It
is
n't
as
bad
as
that
,
Aileen
,
"
he
ventured
to
say
,
eventually
;
and
with
a
softness
and
tenderness
almost
unusual
for
him
,
even
where
she
was
concerned
,
but
she
went
on
forcefully
,
paying
no
heed
to
him
.
"
Oh
,
yes
,
it
is
,
too
,
honey
.
I
know
.
Oh
,
my
poor
Frank
!
But
I
'll
see
you
.
I
know
how
to
manage
,
whatever
happens
.
How
often
do
they
let
visitors
come
out
to
see
the
prisoners
there
?
"
"
Only
once
in
three
months
,
pet
,
so
they
say
,
but
I
think
we
can
fix
that
after
I
get
there
;
only
do
you
think
you
had
better
try
to
come
right
away
,
Aileen
?
You
know
what
the
feeling
now
is
.
Had
n't
you
better
wait
a
while
?
Are
n't
you
in
danger
of
stirring
up
your
father
?
He
might
cause
a
lot
of
trouble
out
there
if
he
were
so
minded
.
"
"
Only
once
in
three
months
!
"
she
exclaimed
,
with
rising
emphasis
,
as
he
began
this
explanation
.
"
Oh
,
Frank
,
no
!
Surely
not
!
Once
in
three
months
!
Oh
,
I
ca
n't
stand
that
!
I
wo
n't
!
I
'll
go
and
see
the
warden
myself
.
He
'll
let
me
see
you
.
I
'm
sure
he
will
,
if
I
talk
to
him
.
"
She
fairly
gasped
in
her
excitement
,
not
willing
to
pause
in
her
tirade
,
but
Cowperwood
interposed
with
her
,
"
You
're
not
thinking
what
you
're
saying
,
Aileen
.
You
're
not
thinking
.
Remember
your
father
!
Remember
your
family
!
Your
father
may
know
the
warden
out
there
.
You
do
n't
want
it
to
get
all
over
town
that
you
're
running
out
there
to
see
me
,
do
you
?
Your
father
might
cause
you
trouble
.
Besides
you
do
n't
know
the
small
party
politicians
as
I
do
.
They
gossip
like
a
lot
of
old
women
.
You
'll
have
to
be
very
careful
what
you
do
and
how
you
do
it
.
I
do
n't
want
to
lose
you
.
I
want
to
see
you
.
But
you
'll
have
to
mind
what
you
're
doing
.
Do
n't
try
to
see
me
at
once
.
I
want
you
to
,
but
I
want
to
find
out
how
the
land
lies
,
and
I
want
you
to
find
out
too
.
You
wo
n't
lose
me
.
I
'll
be
there
,
well
enough
.
"
