Biz months beioire, when her sister's husband had succumbed with startling suddeness to sn attack oi iniluense, he had been sixty-sight years old. Yet in Jane's eyes he had not changed appreciably irorn the lolly ywns man who had married her elder sister thirty-seven years beiore. The very same Robin, grown dearer with tine years.
