Wouldn't it be better for both of us if you left unsaid what you were going to say--at any rate, till the morning? We are--how shall I put it?--somewhat unhinged by today's events. You are weary and heartsick. I know I am. Let me go and see that Mrs. Carmac is being cared for. I'll not remain long, and we can retire soon after supper. Then, when we have slept perhaps, we shall wake into a new world with nerves not so exhausted, or strained, as at this moment.
