About a month later after having received several letters from bis wife urging speedy action, and also be- ing reproached by Mrs. Dean, a friend of Blanche's and who knew of their previous love affairs, for his coldness toward his ward, he proposes to Blanche and they are very quietly married the next day. Chapter XIIlV-After this second marriage Goddard really falls in love with his waid, and his Infatuation for his first wife is en- tirely dissipated. H e writes Mrs. Goddard to this effect, tells her he will not touch a cent of Blanche's money, that he will con- tinue to support her, but he defies her to do her worst. On receiving this letter Mrs. Goddard addresses telegram to Goddard containing only the word \America.\ Chapter XIV—Goddard reads in telegram the intended threat, not doubting she could be guilty of deliberate murder. He decides to risk all his property on investment to se- cure means with which to keep her from troubling either himself or Blanche.
