I do n't believe she ever thought of you again after that paper was put into her hand . '' `` Why ? '' `` Because she was too busy . I was sitting in the window , watching for you , when the five o'clock boat left , and who should go on board , bag and baggage , valet and maid , dressing-bags and poodle , but Mrs. Cope and Trevenna . Just an hour and a half to pack up in ! And you should have seen her when they started . She was radiant -- shaking hands with everybody -- waving her handkerchief from the deck -- distributing bows and smiles like an empress .
