But it made very little difference after all, for within the year the hus band was killed by falling from his broncho at a round-up, and the daughter died leaving a little boy of no age at all. " Alida made no comment but listened, leaning forward not to miss a word. "That s all, " he said, with disappointing brevity. "It can t be all; you have not told me why the husband kept his name a secret, or why the father did not like him, or what became of the little boy. " "He did not keep it a secret... at all, only by the time the boy grew old enough to ask questions the grandfather had moved to another ranch in another state. He was a cattle man, you know, and a Boer of the Boers, and always ready for a trek to more promising grounds, and the boy grew up among people who neither knew nor cared who he was. The old man s reasons for disliking his son-in-law were, I have always believed, those of a gentleman who would rather fight than eat, and he was very angry because some Eastern relatives did not take kindly to the match.
