CHAPTER X."INFORMATION RECEIVED."When George Dallas knew that his meeting yvithClare Carruthers yvas imminent, he told his uncleone of the two circumstances of his life which hehad hitherto concealed from him. As Georgeexpected, Mr. Felton received the communicationyvith some seriousness. A little yvhile ago,""George," he said, this might have upset thenew and good understanding happily establishedbetween Mr. Carruthers and yourself, but I" amin hopes it will not do so now.Ithink the oldgentleman's nature is fine and forgiving, yvhenone gets beneath the crust, andIam not afraidnow.The chance of seeing the young lady, notin his presence, for the first time — that wouldhave been awkward and dangerous indeed — ismost fortunate. You must make your peace withher in the first instance."
