CHAPTER XXXIX. As Ann Haskel related the simple story of her flight Diane listened with increasing amazement and wonder. A confusion of thoughts — conjectures, doubts, questions—n-shed pell-mell through her bewildered mind. The whispers she had heard during the summer of Ann’s lawlessness, her amazing power throughout all that region, the fear. even, which her name inspired. That the mountain woman had bafc» engaged in operating, or had flSrvtrsL. <i and directed, the operation of an illicit distillery, Diane accepted as a fact. Beyond that, the girl felt, most of the tales had little or no foundation. It was to be expected that among the dwellers in that remote mountain wilderness all sorts of stories and legends would grow up around a woman of Ann Haskel’s unusual and forceful character. Perhaps she had banished a few undesirable persons from the realm over which she ruled by right of her amazing personality. That she had led the fight against the night-riders there was no doubt. But Diane was too close to her experience with Jeff Todd not to see virtue in Ann Haskel’s administration, illegal though some of her rulings might have been in the eyes of a more conventional court. As for Ann’s unlawful liquor interests—from Diane Carrol's point of view the lawlessness of John Herbert’s mother was no worse than that of, say. the members of the Wilderness Club. It was like the daughter of fair-play-loving Bill Carrol to feel that any comparison between Ann Haskel and her customers was to the mountain woman’s advantage. The girl could not forget Ann’s admission that because she had to have the money for John Herbert’s education she had “done a lot of things she didn’t want her boy ever to know about.” Perhaps Diane’s love for John Herbert colored her judgment, but to her, high above the questionable activities of Ann Haskel’s life, stood the sacrifice the woman had made for her tx>y—the denial of her mother hunger for the companionship of her son—in order that he might escape the life to which she, herself, by circumstances was condemned. This mountain woman was not the only soul whose spiritual ideals were as stars above the muddy pool of environment and the driving material demands of life.
Almost as if she were reading the girl’s thoughts Ann continued: “Somebody jest natchally had to run things in these parts. When I first tuck holt hit had got to sich a pass with night-ridin' an’ sich doin’s thar wam’t no livin’ fer nobody what wanted to live peaceable and decent. I’ve been a mite rough at times. I’ll allow, but you’ve jest seen fer yourse'f what Jeff Todd an’ Lem Wilkins an’ their kind air like. Thar’s only one way a body can deal with sucTi critters. Good for nothin’, that’s what they be, an’ I’ve handled ’em as sich. Other folks has tailored my lead ’cause I made money fer ’em, buyin’ their corn an’ sich, and because I made hit safe fer ’em. Hit seems like now, since I been gone, Jeff’s got his crowd together an’ took charge ag’in’. Wai, hit’s all different fer me than ’twas. My boy’s safe out of hit all. Hit war him an’ his schoolin’ kept me a-goin'. I don’t reckon I got anything left to fight set now. I ’lowed if I could git back to my own stamp-in’-ground ’fore them police ketched up with me, I'd be all right. But that ornery hound, Jeff Todd, wouldn’t want nothin’ better than to turn me over to the law,” “Mrs. Haskel," cried Diane, “what in the world are you talking about? Why should the police be after you?” "Didn’t Levering an’ Jedge Shannon tell you an’ Herb nothin’?” The girl shook her head. “I didn’t go with John Herbert to see Mr. levering and the Judge. I haven’t seen John Herbert since he left me at my apartment. The minute he was gone I made arrangements for a plane and started. I didn't tell him why you left or that I was coming after you, because, of course, I wanted to straighten it all out with you beta* ’•» knew anything about

swept the city. Trees were uprooted, telephone and electric linos were felled, and crops in rural districts were ruined. Police and firemen patrolled streets al! night to warn citizens of the danger of fallen wires.

it It was just like some of those people at the party to tell you what I had done, even though they did promise me they wouldn’t. Os course, after their silly Cinderella talk which you heard last summer, you couldn’t help thinking that I was helping them to carry on their wretched joke—and making sport of you. Anyone with a spark of pride would have left right then exactly as you did. But I wasn’t helping them make fun of you. Please believe me, Mrs. Haskel. I—l only wanted to help you*—for John Herbert’s sake and mine—as well as for your own self.” The girl paused, miserably watching Ann Haskel’s face. But the mountain woman’s countenance was a grim mask which gave no clue to her thought: . “You—you were so kind—so different—at the party—” Diane fal-

tered. "I was sure that when I had explained everything to you you wouldn’t feel so bad about it al! and that you would go right back home with me and everything would be all right.” “You seen the message I got from Levering, didn’t you?” “Yes. John Herbert found it in his room. But there was nothing in it except that Mr. Levering and Judge Shannon were in the city and would see you in the morning.” “My Gawd-a-mighty!” wailed Nance. “As if that warn’t aplenty." “You shet up, Nance,” snapped Ann. “Diane an’ me’ll do the talkin’.” “John Herbert told me that Mr. Levering was your lawyer,” said Diane, doubtfully. “Levering’s a lawyer, r 'ght enough,” returned Ann, dryly. “But suppose you go ahead an’ tell me jest what you ’lowed made me quit you-all at the party an’ light out so sudden like I did. I own I ain’t got the straight of hit yit. What’s all that that you come to fix up with me ’fore Herb knows 'bout hit?” "Why—why—didn’t anyone at the party tell you?” “Tell me what?” "About—why—about the trick I played on you?” “Nobody didn’t tell me nothin’. What was there to tell?” Desperately the girl forced herself to answer. “The house you and John Herbert and Nance were living in is—is my home.” Ann Haskel looked at the girl as if she feared Diane had suddenly become insane. Nance muttered her usual exclamation. Diane went on hurriedly: “I was born and grew up in that house. It has been the home of my family since Grandfather Carrol’s time. My father was born there. I
offered no tangible grounds upon which the international adventurer could be linked with the mysterious disappearance of his bride last December. Assistant District Attorney Janies Neary investigated the possibility of charging Poderjay with giving perjured information when he married Agnes Tufverson last December. Poderjay, in applying for a I marriage license, said he had not , previously been married. N’enry discovered, but dispatches from Europe indicated he divorced a Yugoslav wife last November. Little importance was attached to the fact that on Dec. 19 Poderjay purchased $lO worth of razor blades and a quantity of sedatives.
—I wanted you to llvethere because I thought if you did r you would learn to understand John Herbert’s work better, and wouldn’t think that my art is so—so trifling and no account. I felt if you could just be in my old home for a while with the books and pictures and things thst my people loved, you would understand what sort of people the Carrels were, and that when you knew you would feci different about me—about John Herbert and me. I know how wonderful, how fine, you really are naturally, Mrs. Haskel. I admire you more than any woman I know. And it hurt me terribly to have you misunderstand John Herbert and me, just because you have only known the wrong kind of people. I knew that if you went to live in the city with no experience, and with a lot of money, you would be sure to go on knowing only the
wrong kind. So I made Mr. Belden arrange it. You wouldn’t have gone to live in my house if you had known I owned it. There was no other way I could help you to live in the right atmosphere—the atmosphere where you and John Herbert belong.” j For what seemed to Diane Carrol a long time the mountain woman sat lost apparently in her own ! thoughts. Once Nance Jordan es- i sayed to speak, but Ann silenced j her with a look. When the girl could endure the silence no longer she said, brokenly: “Won’t you forgive me, Mrs. Haskel? I know how proud you are; I know exactly how you feel about that hateful Cinderella joke. But won’t you believe that I had no part in it and that what I did was prompted only by my wish to help you—and John Herbert?” Ann Haskel raised her head and looked at the girl, and Diane saw something in those black eyes which made her heart leap with joy—and with sadness: joy for herself, and sadness tar John Herbert’s mother. Ann spoke slowly,, and with a gentleness which was new to her: “So you war the fairy godmother. I sensed all the time that somebody war a-doin’ hit al! fer me. That thar pitcher what hangs over the | fireplace in the library—the man i what looks like he jest natchally be- i longs with all them books —he war . one of your talks I reckon?” “He was my grandfather. He built the house.” “Uh-huh! Hit’s easy to see he war the kind of a man what’d build i that kind of a home fer his family." “My father was like him.” “Sure he war. He jest natchally had to be, born an’ raised in that | kind of a home with them kind of i folks.” (To Be Continued) CopyrW 193 5 t>y Harold B«H Dtftrlbutod by Kim r*atures Brodicat«. la>
