In startlingly vivid visions, he recalls the days of his association with Grace. The one episode which stands out above all others is that in which Billy, his classmate, tries to make love to her out on the tennis court, and he interferes, only to be repulsed by Grace, who afterwards tearfully regrets having acted as she did, as it ended their friendship. When he comes to from his visions, Carston writes to Grace. Grace receives his note while playing cards in her drawing-room at her fashionable hotel. She is no longer the same sweet type of womanhood that she was at college. Her face has become hardened by fast living. Sitting with her at the card table is Billy. After hesitating, she answers Carston's letter. Later, accompanied by Billy, she goes to Carston's home. She enters the house alone, leaving Billy to wait outside. She finds Carston in his den, asleep, she thinks, but in reality, dead. When she looks at the picture of herself upon his table, comparing it with herself in the mirror, and realizes for the first time what a hideous change has been wrought in her appearance, she shudders and goes into a frenzy of despair. Not having the courage to face her former sweetheart, she steals out of the den and returns to her home, going straight to her room. There she picks up a dagger and stares at it dazedly as though it fascinated her. Then she plunges it into her bosom and falls backward on the table, dead.
