I have a copy of "Contrary Mary" by Temple Bailey,
copyright 1914 by The Penn Publishing Company, published by Grosset &
Dunlap.
The words at the end of the first line on page
163 are blurred, the last one beyond recognition. The line

page)
Can someone who has this book confirm the questioned words above, and fill
in the blank?
