Excerpt from I Fasten a Bracelet "Miss Ellen wont be down to breakfast, sir, " said Theresa, humbly enough. I stared at her. "Wont be down?" "No, sir. She says for you not to wait breakfast for her, if you please." "Tell her I am waiting, " I rejoined. "And ask her to come at once." "But, sir -" "Ask her to come at once, " I repeated. The maid hurriedly withdrew. I turned to the window and gazed out across the valley to the rolling Berkshires. The mist of the autumn morning still hid the Westbrook place on the opposite slope, and the gravelled walks in front of "Red Cedars" were a little cracked by the frost. The day promised to be clear. The early crimson of the trees along the walks accorded with the violent color of my thoughts - thoughts as conflicting as they were violent. "If you please, sir, " said the maid behind me, "Miss Ellen begs you to excuse her. Mrs. Sutphen will be down at once to pour coffee, sir."
