The rest of the evening discount ugg boots store passed without a word or a look from her. She kept her place at the piano, and I kept mine at the cardtable. She played unintermittingly--played as if the music was her only refuge from herself. Sometimes her fingers touched the notes with a lingering fondness--a soft, plaintive, dying tenderness, unutterably beautiful and mournful to hear; sometimes they faltered and failed her, or hurried over the instrument mechanically, as ugg boots cheap sale if their task was a burden to them. But still, change and waver as they might in the expression they imparted to the music, their resolution to play never faltered. She only rose from the piano when we all rose to say Good-night.
     Mrs. Vesey was the nearest to the door, and the first to shake hands with me.
     "I shall not see you again, Mr. ugg boots on sale Hartright," said the old lady. "I am truly sorry you are going away. You have been very kind and attentive, and an old woman like me feels kindness and attention. I wish you happy, sir--I wish you a kind good-bye."

     "I hope we shall have a future opportunity of bettering our acquaintance, Mr. Hartright. You quite understand about that little matter of ugg boots cheap sale business being safe in my hands? Yes, yes, of course. Bless me, how cold it is! Don't let me keep you at the door. Bon voyage, my dear sir--bon voyage, as the French say."
     Miss Halcombe followed.
     "Half-past seven to-morrow morning," she said--then added in a whisper, "I have heard and seen more than you think. Your conduct to-night has made me your friend for life."
     Miss ugg boots cheap sale Fairlie came last. I could not trust myself to look at her when I took her hand, and when I thought of the next morning.
     "My departure must be a very early one," I said. "I shall be gone, Miss Fairlie, before you----"
     "No, no," she interposed hastily, "not before I am out of my room. I shall be down to breakfast with Marian. I am uggs discount not so ungrateful, not so forgetful of the past three months----"
     Her voice failed her, her hand closed gently round mine--then dropped it suddenly. Before I could say "Good-night" she was gone.
     The end comes fast to meet me--comes inevitably, as the light of the last morning came at Limmeridge House.
