CHAPTER XV Eustace came home tired, bored with bad weather and somewhat exasperated with a wife who seemed only casually pleased to see him. Like most men who are in love, and fairly conscious that they are not very much loved in return, he had occasional moods of: “Women are i taken too seriously. Most of their emotions are inconsequential. Best to ignore them.” For the mood’s duration, he was rather heavy-handed. Felicia had been through the phase before, had shrugged her shoulders. This time it was more difficult. Rescue came in the form of an invitation to him for a masculine riding week-end in Maryland. His taxi was no more than out of sight on its ' way to the station when Felicia telephoned Keith. His father answered, sounded rather pathetically glad to 1 hear her voice, and after a long conversation about the state of her health, called Keith to the phone. She thought: “Oh, dear, I'm being obvious." Then she said that, aloud: “Why not? ... Keith,” she said over : the phone, “would you like to have us to make up our minds?” “Mine’s made up, when yours is.” She laughed: “It’s April, my dear. Spring’s around the corner.” “It’s practically in the Park, this morning.” "Horrid place, the Park. Bridlepaths, and people hacking about.” He remembered other things about it Bright autumn leaves drifting down in the sunlight, a girl with her shoulder touching his. The lights of cars on the curved dark-shining aui tomobile roads at night, that girl I with her head against his chest, and his heart pounding. “What a long silence, Keith!” “No. Difficult.” His father was at the other end of the library, politely absorbed in a newspaper. “I have three whole days free." “When shall I call for you?” “But not under false pretenses, i Want to spend them with you from i breakfast until evening. Then by I Monday I’d be sure.” “Though I never suspected any Joblike qualities in myself, it appears I have them. Shall I call at four?” “Yes. How warm her voiee was! No reason the faint echo of another voice should trouble him. It did not, really, any more. His father said, when he hung up the receiver: “She’s not happy with heir husband, is she? Pity! She’s a beautiful girl. Well, the world's moved on, Keith. Everyone has to live his own life.” And with that oblique comment, he was silent. In the successor to the roadster in which he’d used to drive Denise, they started out. “W’here, Keith?” “An inn in Virginia, by the sea.” “Sounds nice as Bermuda.” “In its way.” There was just the stupid business

quired by his business. Summons Ordered Summons was ordered issued to all defendants, returnable April 12.1 in the damage suit brought by Ber-! nard Kruse against C. M. Ellsworth and others. Case Continued The suit on conversion of i assets, brought by Wilfred Burgess against Raymond Eicher was continued. The damage suit brought by John Brunton against Harriet Rice I was continued. Appearance Filed An appearance was filed by Russell J. Gordon for the plaintiff in :
of registering to embarrass them. Keith wrote, “Mr. nnd Mrs. Keith Sheldie,” because if Felicia decided to go on with him, it would be her name soon; and if she decided not, there would probably be no other Mrs. Keith Sheldie. They had a suite of rooms overlooking the sea. There was a moon. It seas rather like Bermuda. They were very gay. He did not trouble her with kisses, though toward the end of their three day’s he grew breathless with the desire to kiss her. One pnrt of him knew that he would n. er love her as he could have loved Denise: but—that was another year. Felicia was his good companion. She was lovely, and in her odd modern way, gallant. There would be laughter in their life, and tenderness. On Monday morning he put her into the car and started down the road toward the highway before he asked her: “Mind made up?” “Yes, Keith. I'll tell Eustace as soon as I get home. Are you glad ?” “Very glad, Felicia.” “Reno, and all that. I’ll be glad when that part’s finished.” He turned into the empty highway. “Yes. Bend your head over and kiss me, Felicia.” He bent his head down. Around a curve, that did not seem a very sharp curve, came a truck traveling south very fast • • • • Gilbert went to the windows of the living-room in their suite—which had been chosen for its view of Hyde Park. The last pale stars were fading in the green gray sky; the trees in the park were definite dark outlines with blurred lighter shadows at the tops where the new leaves stirred in the dawn wind. He thought: “I have never been so exhausted in my life.” And behind him Denise’s voice, which sounded exhausted too, repeated: “I want to go home to Felicia I want to sail on the next boat.” For probably the hundredth time (and it felt like the thousandth) she repeated that. She’d never stopped repeating it, tn the twelve hours since he had shown her that cablegram, except for a brief interval during dinner—to which, as it happened, they’d invited guests. He had been glad of the respite of their presence, though Denise’s manner had been so preoccupied that it gave every appearance of rudeness. But he thought the necessary effort to be steady in the presence of comparative strangers was helping her. In the moment after their guests had taken leave, she began again, as frantically as before: “Gilbert, you must let me go home, right away.” Never had she suggested that he go with her, or even implied that he was a member of the family upon whom this certain sorrow and probable disgrace had come.

And he had said, over and aver: “No. You can’t go home. You promised me a year.” Ten o’clock, when their guests left, and nearly five now! She had said everything she felt like saying, apparently; he had said all he intended to say, but not much that he felt or thought. He turned from the window to look at her. She sat on the edge of her chair in a crumpled green frock, of the long-sleeved low-necked sfirt women wear on Sunday evenings. Her hair was fallen over her shoulders. Her blue eyes were so dark with anger, and a kind of terror, that they looked black. She seemed pathetically tired. He wanted to cross the room, put his arms round her, say, “Yes, we’ll go home,” say anything that would comfort her. But—he would not. Perhaps he might have, if she had not, sometime after midnight when he did take her in his arms (with no desire except to comfort her then, too), struck at him in a gesture violent, childish and rather pitiful. He spoke to her now, sharply, to get her attention: “Better go to bed, Denise. You look about at the end of your strength.” “ No. I have to make you see.” “I see a good many things clearly enough.” That he had not said before, nor meant to. But his own patience was wearing thin. She protested then: “It’s not what you think. I’m sure of it He wouldn’t Felicia wouldn’t. I mean they were on some kind of houseparty, and just happened to be driving home together. There were dozens of people there, besides them." “So you’ve said before, once every fifteen minutes, Denise.” “But it’s true. I must make you believe it Father phrased the cable badly.” “What does it matter what I believe?” “Because if you know that my sister was just in an accident, you'll let me go home to see her.” “We’ll know when we get the American papers this afternoon.” “But I ought to be at sea, this afternoon. There’s a sailing from Southampton at one.” “And you happen to have no money, no passport. I have our joint passport.” Every time he’d said that before (and hated himself for being obliged to mention it), she had stopped, stared at him horribly like a small pretty animal staring in a trap, and hunted about in her mind for something clever to say that would soften him. But this time, she said: “I sha’n’t let you stop me. I’ll go straight to the Embassy and make them give me a temporary passport; I’ll pawn enough of the jewelry you gave me for a passage. I hate you.” (To be continued) Copyritht by Ursula ParroU Dlitrlbuted bj King FMUaret Syndicate, tea
