`` I thought her very beautiful . '' `` Oh , of course . There was never anybody about Four Winds could touch her for looks . Did you ever see her hair ? It reaches to her feet when she lets it down . But I meant how did you like her ? '' `` I think I could like her very much if she 'd let me , '' said Anne slowly . `` But she would n't let you -- she pushed you off and kept you at arm 's length . Poor Leslie ! You would n't be much surprised if you knew what her life has been . It 's been a tragedy -- a tragedy ! '' repeated Miss Cornelia emphatically . `` I wish you would tell me all about her -- that is , if you can do so without betraying any confidence . '' `` Lord , dearie , everybody in Four Winds knows poor Leslie 's story . It 's no secret -- the OUTSIDE , that is . Nobody knows the INSIDE but Leslie herself , and she does n't take folks into her confidence . I 'm about the best friend she has on earth , I reckon , and she 's never uttered a word of complaint to me . Have you ever seen Dick Moore ? '' `` No . '' `` Well , I may as well begin at the beginning and tell you everything straight through , so you 'll understand it .
As I said , XXXXX 's father was Frank West .
