CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR Wolfe woke to the sound of I breaking glass. He was conscious of a thin, small voice shouting and shouting in the dim distance of a dream. Someone avas shining a light upon the bedroom window, for he could see the frame outlined in shadow upon the ceiling. A strong wind was blowing gustily about the house. Wolfe sprang out of bed, and made his way to the window, just as a second stone came crashing through the glass. A carriage lamp Bhowed its yellow eye in the little garden below. Wolfe threw up the window. “All right, all right, hold on there. Who is it?” A voice came trom behind the carriage lamp. “I guessed it were your window, sir. It be me, John Munday. The young missus has been took bad. I’ve brought ye a letter.” “All right; I’ll be down in five minutes.” Wolfe lit a eandle and dressed like a man whose house is on fire. He still was conscious of a thin, small voice calling and calling in *he distance of dreams, and of the restless blustering of the west wind over Navestock town. A gust blew the candle out as he opened the front door. “Darn the wind! Come inside, John." “I reckoned as you wouldn't mind me using stones, seeing how the young missus be that bad ” Wolfe had shut the door and relit the candle. “No, you might have fired a gun in and I’d have thanked you. The letter? Hold the candle.” He untwisted the crumpled note and spread it against the wall with one sweep of the hand. A doctor receives many such messages, tragic, anguished scrawls penned anywhere, like a dispatch on a battlefield. Mary Mascall had written in pencil, but the writing was steady and showed nerve. She was a woman who could keep a clear head and remember facts that might be vital. ' W If* rruo-.pled the letter and thrust it into hts pocket. After a furious drive on this raw November morning, Munday’s market cart brought "Dr. Wolfe to Moor Farm where Mary Mascall awaited with the porch door open. “Thank God you’ve come, Johq." Mary Mascall had shaded the lamp in Jess’s room, but even in the dim light Wolfe could see the extreme pallor of her face. She was like a figure of wax, with bloodless lips and pinched features. j Her hands were moving restlessly, . the white fingers plucking at the quilt. “Is ft you, John?” Her voice was a mere whisper, I and when she turned her face to i him her eyes looked great black circles. Wolfe bent over her. , "Don’t talk, Jess, and don't move : a finger. Keep absolutely still.” j An hour passed. Mary Mascall lay back .in the old walnut-wood , arm-chair in the corner, her eyes closed. She had not realized how weary she was till Wolfe had come and taken some of the sharpness from her suspense. The farm-house . wa» very sttll. Har eyes opened: she found Wolfe watchiag bar. He beckoned her to eem* to him. She ' her thoex off, and moved

iterest and inspiration. In the open-1 ling part of the program the children ■ |of the church, under the leadership , |of Mrs. Frank Hui's!, presented a ' | candle light feature. This was in [the "ature of a surprise program in : honor of the birthday of the pistor iof the church who wis presented.

noiselessly across the room. Wolfe drew her very close, and spoke in a whisper. “This is a good sleep. Her pulse has picked up just a little. Go to bed, Mother, and get some gest.” “But you? They have been working you to death. And there's tomorrow.” “I am going to sit here all night. I am not going back to Navestock till I know.” “Not even to-morrow, John?” “Not for a month, if necessary. Navestock can go to the devil. Is there plenty of oil in that lamp?” “Yes.” “Then go and get some rest." She kissed him, and slipped silently out of the room. Wolfe remained there through the night, sitting beside Jess’s bed, his fingers resting lightly on her wrist. The faint beating of her heart measured out the night for him, the flutter of blood under the white skin. Grey-eyed dawn found him there, gaunt and stiff like a sentinel, outstaring Death, who stood at the foot of the bed and watched. • « • Navestock found itself suddenly in the position of a beleaguered town whose governor had disappeared in the night and left the place to confusion. A crisis creates the man who is indispensable. Navestnck realized this fact directly the indispensable strong man i disappeared. Till noon of the next day no one knew what had become of John Wolfe. He had been called out in i the night, and had nit Feturned. Even this was surmise, and the bell and knocker of the little white house at Eve’s Corner were restless and importunate. "Is DA Wolfe in?” “We haven’t seen him this morning.” “Surely he has not forgotten to call at Mrs. Ballard’s?” “Oh, please will you tell the doctor to come to Mr. at once? There’s been a change for the worse.” ‘T’ve called for Mrs. Mostyn’s medicine.” “Can you tell me what time Di. Wolfe will be home?” The little maid grew cross and flurried. Mrs. Loosely herself took charge of the front door, growing more stiff and innocent each time ' the knocker banged or the bell : jangled. i “Dr. Wolfe must have been calli ed out in the night. I don’t know i where he has gone. I have not seen i him since I went to bed.” It was at Moor Farm that they , found him. But Navestock called and beckoned to a man who was both blind and deaf. All Wolfe's consciousness , had withdrawn itself Into that long, i low upper room with its oak beams, : old-rose coloured walls, ano its snow maiden in the white quilted bed. Jess had awakened two hours • after dawn, to find John Wolfe sitting beside her. Her shadowy eyes I had smiled up at him with a look I of dreamy contentment, i “Stay with me, John." r She had fallen asleep again aL > most instantly. No power on earth i would have moved John Wolfe from ■ Moor Farm. Messages, letters were brought i him. one full of frank entreaty > from Ursula Brandon. 1 “Come down to the town, even If

Roberts. pastor-Evengelist, ispoke in his usml logical, interestling and challenging way an the subject, "The place of personal work iin Evangelism". "The greatest human supplement to a holy life S’’d .the'power of prayer, in Evangelism jis personal, work”, declared the I speaker. Tonight the sermon subject, bs annoiKeed, will be. “The plea of I Evil." A special feature of the musiIca! program will be a number by Ithe orchestra, and quartet of the Ossian United Brethren church. For the Friday evening service .an unusually interesting program is in prepiration. A childrens ichorus of 60 voices, which is under |th£ training of Mr. aud Mrs. Richer,

it is only for an hour. Perhaps you do not realise that Navestock is without a doctor. Threadgold went away yesterday for his health. The locum tenens who was to have taken his place has not arrived. What are the wretches to do?" Wolfe wrote his reply on a black oak pedestal table. He was sitting by the window of Jess’s room, with the brown leaves blowing about the grass in t£e garden below. “Pardon me. but it is life or death here, and I remain till it i» decided. Navestock is drawing out of the valley of shadows; things were at their darkest a month ago. Let them send for Bruce or Halliday, or some of the Wannington men. I have given a good deal to Navestock. They must not grudge me these few days. They are mine, and I shall take them.” About the fourth day of Wolfe’s withdrawal, a special meeting of the Board of Guardians was called to consider a communication that the Board had received from the Lords of the Council. The letter had come in reply to their appeal for expert advice in the matter of the town’s sanitation. Lawyer Crump was the recipient of this letter and as clerk he had to lay it before the Board. The Lords of the Council desired i to inform the Navestock Board of i Guardians that they—the Lords—- . had consulted Dr. Percival, the ex- . pert whom they had sent some i months ago to report on the state of the town. Dr. Percival had stat- ■ ed that the Navestock Guardians i had the very man they needed liv. i ing in their midst. They ventured . to suggest to the Navestock Guard- . ians that they should eleet Dr John • Wolfe as their medical officer and . be guided by the expert knowledge that he possessed. Crump's eyes twinkled. “Excuse me, sir. but 1 have another letter to read to the Board. > I regret to say that bad health has compelled Dr. Threadgold to re- . sign." i 1 Crump read Dr. Threadgold’s let- - ter. The resignation was accepted. Then came the critical pause, i Robert F lem m ing caught the prompting gleam in Crump’s eyes. “Well, gentlemen it seems to me that onr only logical and sensible I step is to elect Mr Wolfe as our . medical officer. Speaking personal- - ly, 1 don't think we could make a • better choice.” 1 • • • , Robert Flemming saw the sun , setting over Tarling Moor as he crossed the paddock to Moor Farm. r Robert Flemming found himself holding out a hand to Mary Mas- . call. Iler face/iooked pale, and set j with the stiffness of painted endurs ance. “My girl is not so well again." ’ “1 am sorry.” j “You want to see Mr. Wolfe?" i “Yes." 9 Robert Flemming had all th® . aristocrat's graciousness towards 3 women. Instinctively he had low. 9 ered his voice. “It is very necessary that I should see Dr. Wolfe, if he can be . called without disturbing your daughter." a “She is asleep just new. But I doubt if John will leave l;er,” t y (7 o Be Coaaeued I • Ccpyr ght. 1932. by Robert M. Mcßride 4 Co. ■* Duuitotcd tj E.ng Fea-t-ra Sradieitt, Inc.
