Text Appearing Before Image:
d. Such another girl,but more airy and graceful—a more delicate beautyaltogether. Graham, for the moment, was once morethe newly risen power in the railroad world. TheGo-Ids and Vanderb-lts had been forced to recognizethe irresistible magic of his genius, and this delicatebeauty of dreamland had rewarded his prowess withher hand and heart. How long the Chief of the Inter-national allowed the wife of his youth to occupy histhoughts who shall say. It may have been twentyminutes, it may have been an hour later, when hearose from his chair and murmured: Sweetheart,our daughter will be with me soon, very soon. Graham crossed over to the window and allowedthe dark green blind to run high. A low red moonswung just above the trees over the Jersey shore; theHudson poured its seemingly blood-stained floodsonward to the sea, and silence sweet and restful hadenveloped the tumultuous city, save for the occasionalclang of wheels on the elevated structure. It was 1.30when President Graham retired.
Text Appearing After Image:
The conductor, an old and faithful servant of Gordon Grahams, caughtup the young woman as if she had been a child, and, despite her imperiouscommands, carried her to where the America was twisted across thetracks and gently forced her into the car.—Page 30. Chapter Four
