"the next i heard of frank was that he was in montana, and then he went prospecting in arizona, and then i heard of him from new mexico. after that came a long newspaper story about how a miners’ camp had been attacked by apache indians, and there was my frank’s name among the killed. i fainted dead away, and i was very sick for months after. pa thought i had a decline and took me to half the doctors in ’frisco. not a word of news came for a year and more, so that i never doubted that frank was really dead. then lord st. simon came to ’frisco, and we came to london, and a marriage was arranged, and pa was very pleased, but i felt all the time that no man on this earth would ever take the place in my heart that had been given to my poor frank.
