There was no recurrence of it when he heard that Franks had again seen Miss Elvan before she left Ashtead ; nor when he learnt that the artist had been spending a day or two at Bath .

Arriving with the news at ten o'clock one night , he shouted and maddened about Warburton 's room until finally turned out at two in the morning . His circumstances being what they were , he could not hope for marriage yet awhile ; he must work and wait . Never mind ; see what work he would produce ! Yet it appeared to his friend that all through the next twelvemonth he merely wasted time , such work as he did finish being of very slight value .
