Read the passage,
from The Pillar of Light
One of the last to claim her attention was the young American, Mr. Pyne. Her face lit up pleasurably when she saw him.
"I was wondering what had become of you," she said, "My sister has asked me several times if you had arrived, and I imagined that I must

Holding the glass in his hand he looked at her in frank, open-eyed wonder. To be hailed so gleefully by a good-looking girl, whom he had
never to his knowledge set eyes on, was somewhat of a mystery, and the puzzle was made all the more difficult by the fact that she had discarded
the weather-proof accoutrements needed when she first ventured forth on the gallery.
(from The Pillar of Light by Louis Tracy)
