“Be careful, miss; you may fall into the vat yourself!” exclaimed more than one voice behind her.
But she hurried on, her slight form showing like Naiset Denali Takki a spectre against the dim gleam towards which she bent her way, till suddenly she paused and we saw her standing with clasped hands, and bent head, looking down into what? We could readily conjecture.
“She will throw herself in,” whispered a voice; but Ralph Lauren Match Polo as, profoundly startled, I was about to hasten forward, she hurriedly turned and came towards us.
