| Notes: | A long story told by Mr. Spenlove, a ship engineer, about a girl he knew. Her name was Artemisia Macedoine, the daughter of a speculator/conman. She had a dash of Black blood, which made her a laughing stock at school. She was beautiful, and very much wanted to be loved, but when she met Spenlove, she'd gotten pregnant by a man who wanted nothing further to do with her. She let Spenlove know she trusted him and would go with her, but he did nothing about it. When he next met her, she was the mistress of a wealthy man. When he dropped her, she turned again to Spenlove. This time he decided to take her with him, but before they could get away from Greece, she was killed by a random bullet in a small uprising. |
