1"'Yes, there is some one I love, though he has not told me yet that he even loves me.' I was right to speak to him so
2frankly, for quite a light came into his face, and he put out both his hands and took mine--I think I put them into
3his--and said in a hearty way:-- "'That's my brave girl. It's better worth being late for a chance of winning you than
4being in time for any other girl in the world. Don't cry, my dear. If it's for me, I'm a hard nut to crack; and I take
5it standing up. If that other fellow doesn't know his happiness, well, he'd better look for it soon, or he'll have to
6deal with me. Little girl, your honesty and pluck have made me a friend, and that's rarer than a lover; it's more
7unselfish anyhow. My dear, I'm going to have a pretty lonely walk between this and Kingdom Come. Won't you give me one
8kiss? It'll be something to keep off the darkness now and then. You can, you know, if you like, for that other good
9fellow--he must be a good fellow, my dear, and a fine fellow, or you could not love him--hasn't spoken yet.' That quite
10won me, Mina, for it was brave and sweet of him, and noble, too, to a rival--wasn't it?--and he so sad; so I leant over
11and kissed him. He stood up with my two hands in his, and as he looked down into my face--I am afraid I was blushing
12very much--he said:-- "'Little girl, I hold your hand, and you've kissed me, and if these things don't make us friends
13nothing ever will. Thank you for your sweet honesty to me, and good-bye.' He wrung my hand, and taking up his hat, went
14straight out of the room without looking back, without a tear or a quiver or a pause; and I am crying like a baby. Oh,
15why must a man like that be made unhappy when there are lots of girls about who would worship the very ground he trod
16on? I know I would if I were free--only I don't want to be free. My dear, this quite upset me, and I feel I cannot write
17of happiness just at once, after telling you of it; and I don't wish to tell of the number three until it can be all
18happy. "Ever your loving "LUCY. "P.S.--Oh, about number Three--I needn't tell you of number Three, need I? Besides, it
19was all so confused; it seemed only a moment from his coming into the room till both his arms were round me, and he was
20kissing me. I am very, very happy, and I don't know what I have done to deserve it. I must only try in the future to
21show that I am not ungrateful to God for all His goodness to me in sending to me such a lover, such a husband, and such
22a friend. "Good-bye." Dr. Seward's Diary. (Kept in phonograph) 25 May.--Ebb tide in appetite to-day. Cannot eat, cannot
23rest, so diary instead. Since my rebuff of yesterday I have a sort of empty feeling; nothing in the world seems of
24sufficient importance to be worth the doing.... As I knew that the only cure for this sort of thing was work, I went
25down amongst the patients. I picked out one who has afforded me a study of much interest. He is so quaint that I am
26determined to understand him as well as I can. To-day I seemed to get nearer than ever before to the heart of his
27mystery. I questioned him more fully than I had ever done, with a view to making myself master of the facts of his
28hallucination. In my manner of doing it there was, I now see, something of cruelty. I seemed to wish to keep him to the
29point of his madness--a thing which I avoid with the patients as I would the mouth of hell. (Mem., under what
30circumstances would I not avoid the pit of hell?) Omnia Romæ venalia sunt. Hell has its price! verb. sap. If there be
31anything behind this instinct it will be valuable to trace it afterwards accurately, so I had better commence to do so,
32therefore-- R. M. Renfield, ætat 59.--Sanguine temperament; great physical strength; morbidly excitable; periods of
33gloom, ending in some fixed idea which I cannot make out. I presume that the sanguine temperament itself and the
34disturbing influence end in a mentally-accomplished finish; a possibly dangerous man, probably dangerous if unselfish.
35In selfish men caution is as secure an armour for their foes as for themselves. What I think of on this point is, when
36self is the fixed point the centripetal force is balanced with the centrifugal; when duty, a cause, etc., is the fixed
37point, the latter force is paramount, and only accident or a series of accidents can balance it. Letter, Quincey P.
38Morris to Hon. Arthur Holmwood. "25 May. "My dear Art,-- "We've told yarns by the camp-fire in the prairies; and dressed
39one another's wounds after trying a landing at the Marquesas; and drunk healths on the shore of Titicaca. There are more
40yarns to be told, and other wounds to be healed, and another health to be drunk. Won't you let this be at my camp-fire
41to-morrow night? I have no hesitation in asking you, as I know a certain lady is engaged to a certain dinner-party, and
42that you are free. There will only be one other, our old pal at the Korea, Jack Seward. He's coming, too, and we both
43want to mingle our weeps over the wine-cup, and to drink a health with all our hearts to the happiest man in all the
44wide world, who has won the noblest heart that God has made and the best worth winning. We promise you a hearty welcome,
45and a loving greeting, and a health as true as your own right hand. We shall both swear to leave you at home if you
46drink too deep to a certain pair of eyes. Come! "Yours, as ever and always, "QUINCEY P. MORRIS." Telegram from Arthur
47Holmwood to Quincey P. Morris. "26 May. "Count me in every time. I bear messages which will make both your ears tingle.
48"ART."
