e Emily and a neatly-dressed woman
heavily veiled.

When the shore was reached, I joined some fishermen who stood about on the
beach, uncovering their heads as the coffin passed. An open wagon waited
near the propped-up foot-bridge of the Hulk, the horse covered with a
black blanket. Two men, carrying the body, crouched down and pushed the
box into the wagon. The blanket was then taken from the horse and wrapped
over the pine casket.

The woman drew nearer and tenderly smoothed its folds. Then she turned,
lifted her veil, and in a low voice thanked the few bystanders for their
kindness.

It was the same face I had seen with Emily in the woods,--the same that
lay upon his heart the last night I saw him alive.
