CHAPTER XXXII Howard might have gone on and told her that Gwendolyn was interested in affairs of her own. in particular a certain young man whom Howard understood would marry her in a moment if she were free. But he felt that Caroline would say, if she knew this, that he would not be justified in living a lie any longer for his father’s sake. Her idea that a man could work and earn his living was a matter he preferred not to discuss with her. He decided he’d told her enough for the time being. But he did wish she had a little more abandon in her love for him. Better not to mention it to her, though—set her to weighing her feelings. What a fool he was! The least doubt of her and he was frantic. Pity he couldn’t have been so madly in love with her in the beginning! Caroline was quite unconscious of making him feel that her love was cooling. She realized that his ardor was increasing, but she had always thought her love was greater. The lack of a corresponding rise on her own part did not cause her to question her love for him. She was only pleased that even belatedly he was falling equally in love with her. It was flattering, and promised greater happiness for their future. She accepted it complacently. Howard planned, on the long drive to Fern’s home, to stir in her some sympathy for his own viewpoint. 'But on Friday night Caroline received a message from her mother that caused her to postpone the trip. . , , ... The Shorthill twins, Jack and Jill, had come down with the measles. Mrs. Rutledge could not leave. She would let Caroline know-, her message said, when to come for her. Caroline was greatly worried. Fern’s only domestic help was a young colored girl who worked for her board and room. Fern was sending her to school and getting little in return for the quantities of food the girl consumed. She would be of no service with sick children, Caroline feared. The burden of caring for them would fall on Alva. She wrote to her mother, begging her to consider her own health and Alva answered that she was feeling very well. Caroline sent what money she had so that Fern might have a woman come in and relieve her mother, but Alva advised Fem to use the money for othef purposes. She had learned that Fem's husband had been out of work for several months and they were living from hand to mouth on the small sums he made at odd jobs. The money Caroline sent bought food and medicine. Alva found a spiritual reward in serving the sister she had formerly neglected. The very ache of her weariness eased her remorse. How much she'd had!- -how blindly selfish had been her life in those easy, fleeting years at Hawthorn House! —when she had not even counted the time that passed between their visits. No wonder Fem had been proud—had stayed away. Alva remembered having driven through this drowsy old town years ago and stopping only to leave christening presents for the twins before going on her way to Florida. It was as clear in her mind —that day—as though it had been yesterday. The hurt look in Fern’s eyes when she had laughingly refused to stay even for a cup of tea. She was joining friends from New York at Miami for a yachting cruise. Arthur’s hand laid comfortingly on Fenfs arm. She understood now. Fem's husband had seen through her sister’s shallowness, had offered dent sympathy, and she had gone on her wav, forgetting them within a mile —thinking of the pleasure of going to sea on a big. luxurious boat, with gay, carefree companions. The memory of the past drove her to undertake a course far beyond her strength to carry out. She nursed the twins faithfully, night and day, managed the household and looked 'after Fern when she had one of her frequent illnesses. And then one morning, when the twins were convalescing, and she did not appear in the kitchen before breakfast Fern thought she was over-

sleeping and would not have her called. At noon Caroline received word that her mother was dead. Mr. Rutledge, suffering from nervous shock, was unable to come to the factory for her. It was Malcolm, to whom he telephoned at Purcell's, who brought her the sad nears. When they got home she found her father drinking large glasses of cheap whiskey. For one blinding moment of white hot rage she hated him. Then even that feeling was lost in the terrible numbness that seemed to be turning her to stone. For hours she lay on her bed without uttering a sound, only her fingers moving in clutching grasps at whatever they touched predicted the breaking point It began with a whimper, rose to a gasping, sobbing cry and then she shrieked: “Mother! Mother! Mother!” Mrs. Stuart h; stCy called a doctor. Until he ca. and administered a sedative Caroline begged frantically to be taken to her mother. The doctor said she was not to be moved that day. Malcolm spoke to him as he was leaving, about Mr. Rutledge. Alcoholism, the physician said, and prescribed a drastic treatment for him. Malcolm saw that he got it Howard came in the evening. He had not heard of Alva’s death. Mrs. Stuart admitted him and told him what had happened. She reported to Malcolm later that he took it “cool enough.” “Well, they weren’t very good friends, I guess,” he said, remembering a conversation he had had with Alva about Dunsworth when she had told him she was sorry Caroline was interested in Howard. "The way he took charge of things!” Mrs. Stuart went on. “Just as though he owned the place. I’d never have thought that a girl like Caroline Rutledge would fall in love with an uppity no account like him. He had the face to tell me not to disturb her when I was taking in a hot water bottle for her feet. They were as cold as ice. Said he'd telephoned for a nurse to look after her.” Malcolm walked away without further comment. Now!” his mother thought, “wasn’t I the fool to say anything about her loving that young Dunsworth!” Thet next day Howard came in a large car to take Caroline and her father to her mother's old home, where Alva was to be buried. The nurse accompanied them. Mr. Rutledge, a wreck of a man, could not have held a wheel for an hour. Caroline was too stricken with grief to question anything anyone did. The nurse kept her as quiet as possible. No one consulted her about arrangements, * Howard- had reserved rooms for himself and Mr. Rutledge at the Commercial Hotel, the one and only hostelry 7 in the tow 7 n. There he took Philip after the wretched man had spent an hour in Fern's house, where Alva lay at rest. The nurse remained with Caroline. The girl would have spent the rest of the night on her knees beside her mother’s bed, but the nurse practically carried her away at last. Caroline could never afterward remember clearly the two days that followed. Her brain seemed to have retained only a collection of disordered impressions, as unreal as a nightmare. It was late when they arrived at the house in Edge Street Mrs. Stuart was waiting for them and though Howard greeted her coldly she coolly ignored him. She felt she had her duty to do as a neighbor and she meant to do it if no one but an outsider tried to stop her. Caroline clung to her pathetically, “You were so good to my mother,” the girl sobbed. Mrs. Stuart shot a triumphant glance at Howard who had tried to take Caroline’s hands. “I’ll have a housekeeper here for vou tomorrow,” he said, meaning to let Mrs. Stuart know that they would not require her services. Caroline submitted unresponsively to his parting kiss. . She was thinking of how much she had hurt her mother on his account. But by morning she was rcmsrseful.

than it had possessed when uttered set her to thinking of his generosity Apparently her mother had not discussed him with Fern. Fern had called her a lucky girl. He had been splendid. It put her under a great obligation to him—but what would they have done without him 7 Her mother had died of heart failure, they said. Heart failurel Heartbreak —and hard work! And pride! That would happen to Fern too; she had heard Arthur say so to her father, if he could not make her life easier. Arthur was scared. He had a right to be. Howard had helped them, he would save Fern’s life, perhaps. The nurse had stayed there, and there would be another woman to help her. The children and Fem would be taken care of until they were well and Fem had her baby. Howard had given them money. It seemed to Caroline that even to think of repaying him was unappreciative. All he asked was her love. She glanced over from her bed at his photograph on her dressing table. “I do love you,” she whispered as though he had asked her to say it. Howard spent the afternoon with her and she was so compliant and receptive he was persuaded to the belief that she would agree with him that it was ridiculous for her to think of going back to her work at the factory But he did not mention the subject that day. The following evening he brought it up by suggesting that she and her father should move to a house in the country. Caroline shook her head. “We couldn’t pay rent,” she told him. , Howard looked hurt. “I had hoped you would realize that it’s time for you to let me worry about rent,” he remarked. Caroline put her hands over his, clung to them. “Please don't argue with me,” she begged. “I know I can’t repay all you’ve done for me, but I can go on supporting myself. I want to work. If I didn’t you would have to be with me every minute. I couldn’t endure to be idle.” “Won’t you ever think of me7’’ he reproached her. “There’s father,” she reminded him. “He wouldn’t consent” Howard shrugged. “Then leave him here. You must get out of it, Caroline. I’m sorry to say it, but your father is . . . well, if he was made to realize what he has done,— how he's gone down, —and was put absolutely on his own, it might be the best thing that could happen to him.” “I suppose I shouldn’t let you say that,” Caroline protested, “and you ought to know I won’t desert him. This thing has licked him, it’a true, but it didn't lick mother ...” It ki . . .” Howard broke in, paused. “It killed her,” Caroline finished for him, “but first it made her, Howard. There was the most beautiful peace in her face. You know what she would say about my leaving father. I’ll never let her down.” He looked at her strangely and she seemed to read his thoughts, for she added hastily: “Oh, yes, I know you paid for her funeral—Father's debt —and you gave money to Fern and she took it because she thought I would want her to. Well, I did. I don't want her to die too, as mother did. But don't you see. that makes it all the more my obligation to mother to see that father tries to repay you. It’s all I can do for her now.” Howard smiled, rather pityingly. “Your sentiment is beautiful, Caro, but I’m afraid your material is—er —inadequate. I don’t like to be unkind, but think a moment. This house—it’s beastly uncomfortable. Right now it’s ten degrees too cold at least. Your father doesn't even tend the furnace properly. It must be frightful for you, getting up in the morning in an icy room.” “Millions of people have done it,” Caroline answered dully, “and I’m not soft any more.” “Well,” Howard gave up, "have it your own way.” But in his heart he felt she must soon realize that her father was a broken reed.
