MacBride
for one
night
instead of
six was a
great
liberation.
But the
Virginian
never saw
his
sweetheart
alone
again;
while she
was at the
Sunk Creek
Ranch, his
duties
called him
away so
much that
there was
no chance
for him.
Worse
still,
that habit
of birds
of a
feather
brought
about a
separation
more
considerable.
She
arranged
to go East
with the
Ogdens. It
was so
good an
opportunity
to travel
with
friends,
instead of
making the
journey
