SYNOPSIS The smug little town of Navestock jolted on. rustily, clumsily, contented to jog along in a rut. resenting the interference of anyone who sought to change its mode of living. The people, therefore, were very antagonistic toward | young Dr. John Wolfe, assistant to the town's blundering old Dr. Threadgold, when he tried to better conditions. The young physician realises also the pitiable plight of the inhabitants in the hands of the old 1 doctor, who cautions him to be more I sparing in the use of necessary 1 medicines. Wolfe, stunned at the unsanitary conditions he finds everywhere, orepares a map showing the unhealthy districts. Mrs. Threadgold comes upon the map and considering Wolfe’s researches ! "gross disloyalty and underhand , spying”, suggests that he be warned 1 to discontinue or be discharged. Despite the community’s feeling towards the capable young doctor, the Rev. Robert Flemming is impressed by his efficiency in ministering to the sick. Wolfe's one inducement to keep fighting is the friendship and encouragement of lovely and vivacious Jess Mascall. Wolfe shows Dr. Threadgold the dangerous germs he found in the well-water of a house where there i» a case of diphtheria. The narrowminded Threadgold. afraid to face ’ facts and fearing Wolfe may usurp his position, resents the younger j man * “interference”. Wolfe warns | of a terrible calamity should typhoid fever or cholera strike Navestock. Not wishing to appear superior. Wolfe turns over his findings to Threadgold to do with as he pleases. Later, the old doctor tells his wife a convincing tale of how he put Wolfe in his place. She urges him to burn Wolfe's papers. Wolfe longs for someone to talk to but is met with insolence and unfriendliness everywhere. Even at home with the Threadgolds, the atmosphere is strained. CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN It was not to be wondered at that Wolfe had days of depression and of disgust, days when he asked himself why he loitered on in this corrupt old town, gaining bitter experience and ten pounds a month. N'avestock would have none of him. The fighting spirit was well enough in jts way, but what was the use of playing the free lance against such absurd odds? He was wasting ms time here, battering at closed doors. Wolfe mounted his horse again, and. following the Turrells over Tarling Moor, saw the Moor Farm cypresses against the blue. Quarrel with his present position as he might, the very impulse that seized him was a tug at the roots of his stronger manhood. Wolfe’s eyes were fixed upon the red house lying down yonder in the sunlight. He was drawn instinctively towards it. a lonely man who had often drunk comfort and courage there. For him the place was full of scents and pictures. Red roofs and thatched roofs, great holly hedges glimmering in the sunlight, orchard trees in bloom, wild purple - mouthed mooriand. shimmering hay. the radiant and half-rebellious candour of a girl who was half a child. The thought of Jess had kept him often from too much bitterness. She was the cleanest thing that had come into his life. Moor Farm lay close on his left, and Wolfe turned in at the white gate, letting it swing to behind his horse with a clang of the Iron catch. The hous* and buildings locked sleepy and deserted, though down in the b'g pond the geese were paddling to and fro. Wolfe rode across the paddock, and round th* corner of the holly hedge U> the

front of the house. He bung his bridle over the gate - post, and walked up the stone path with a sudden cloud of sadness overshadowing him. The grass growing between the stones had been browned by the sun. A slight breeze swayed the tops of the cypresses, and under the eaves of the house and upon the mellow roof tiles sparrows chirped and fluttered. No one appeared when Wolfe rang the bell. The door stood open, and he could see a broad band of sunlight cutting across the stone flagged floor of the hall. Bees worked the flowers in the borders under the windows, humming by the score about the burning steeples of a group of hollyhocks. Moor Farm house itself seemed sleepy and very still. Wolfe rang again, and then stepped back from the porch. The smell of honeysuckle in flower seemed to intensify the feeling of loneliness that had made him turn aside from the high-road. No one was at home, and Wolfe's disappointment was wholly out of proportion to the cause. He walked back slowly down the stone path and had his hand on the gate when he heard Jess's voice in the paddock. “Let him go, Bob, let him go." “I wouldn't be fur riding him. Miss Jess. 1 wouldn't, now! Woa, Turpin, coom down!” “Let him go, Bob. Do as 1 tell you." Wolfe passed out by the gate and along the holly hedge to the corner where an old yew threw a dense shadow. Half hidden by the hedge he had a view of the paddock with its scattered chestnut trees and its white and winding road. Fifty yards away stood a black colt, head up, bridle dangling, fore hoofs planted wide apart, Bob's brown smocked figure was moving aside, and in front of the colt and about three yards from him stood Jess tn a green skirt and red “Garibaldi." “1 wouldn’t touch him. Miss Jess, he be nasty. He tried to bite me when 1 was a-saddling of ’im." “Shut up, Bob. You don't know how to handle him. that’s all." Jess moved very slowly towards the colt. She raised a band, but the colt threw hi? muzzle up and edged back some paces Jess followed him. holding out ■ hand, and speaking m a low and acotiung voice. For

fully a minute both girl and horse stood absolutely still, eyeing each other cautiously. Then Jess's hand went up to the colt's black nose. “Poor old Turpin, then, poor old fellow." This time he did not flinch or throw his head up, but let her - stroke his nose. One hand crept j gently towards the bridle. She ■ moved slowly to one side, still ! stroking the colt’s nose. He began to shiver and fidget a little, but did j not break away from the soft voice j and the subtle hand. Wolfe glanced back momentarily ’ at his own nag, and when he looked , again Jess was in the saddle and : the colt standing still and looking puzzled. In a flash he kicked out. I swerved, and then went away at a gallop, heading straight for the lower end of the paddock where the I geese were swimming in the pond. Wolfe felt fear leap up into his i mouth. He started forward, and I then stood absolutely still under the shade of the yew. Jess turned the colt within ten ; yards of the pond. He swept aside along the line of the hedge, and ' came up again towards the build- I Ings. The girl was getting him in ; hand. Wolfe held his breath She ' looked superb as the horse came swinging over the sun - scorched j grass, her hair blowing from her i shoulders, her head thrown slightly 1 back. She saw Wolfe and waved to him. Turpin went galloping by within ten paces of the yew, and the curves of the girl’s throat and chin were happy and exultant. Jess took the colt three times round the paddock before she reined in close to young Bob. who had been . turning slowly on bis heels like a wooden figure on a pivot. Wolfe left the shade of the yew tree and i walked across the grass. Jess was i out of the saddle, patting and . fondling the colt who appeared to : have surrendered to her magic, i Young Bob’s face was the shiny white face of a boy who had been . badly scared. i "My Lord, Miss Jess, you shouldn't 'a' done it.” She laughed, kissed the colt’s nose, and told Bob to take the i bridle. 1 “There’s no real temper tn him, I He just felt strange." <To Sr ContiaurSt !
