238 THE ABANDONED CLAIM.
Plenty of time to enjoy himself, to have a " good time, " to jest and frolic and parley with life, leav ing its serious duties for years to come.
And now, the years to come, where were they?
He was going into an eternity he dared not face, an eternity where he could think of but one who might be pitiful to him and shield him from blame : the little sister who died long years before.
Thinking of the little sister reminded him of the fair young girl who was so like her. I...t was not a pleasant memory, the recollection of that day when he had come upon her in her country home, and wounded her and shamed himself, in his dastardly attempt to prove himself a man of the world in the eyes of his low companions.
She had not made a failure of life, neither she nor the boys. His path had been easy and theirs hard, but they had done the best that came in their way, and he, he had gone straight down to per dition, and this was the end. There was pity in her face that day, in spite of her contempt.
