In a misty boarding house scene Fred fears Laura’s marriage to him, while Kitty mocks his hope. The narrator, tempted by publication triumph, watches Fred’s manuscript travel toward the Eclectic, then faces Garbould’s critic’s glare and a magazine check that unsettles pride before a wedding at a fashionable church.
