t . CHAPTER XIII Jarvis’wife whose name was Flavia flowed over to where Sandy was leaning against the rail. He had observed already this quality of fluency in her. It was of speech, of gesture, the way she moved, just 1 as gravity is the keynote of some people or levity or solidarity or flippancy, Flavia’s was fluency. She would flow into empty places, possibly brim over full ones, he opined. It was an insidious process and apt i to be complete, like the pouring of something plastic or molten into a mold. It was possible he thought that she occupied her husband's vacant premises that way to keep him from being a mere shell. There came at this moment the spoiling of what the Coionel had saved for a surprise, a sort of sleepy trumpeting that held a suggestion of repletion, vast content and a drowsy good night Mouse had made a hole for his shoulder and was composing himself for the night. “Mercy— ’’ gasped Hester. “What’s that?” “If I were in India,” Vinckers said, “I’d say it was an elephant. Used to hear the beggars bugle that way when I was painting the portraits of Rajahs and things.” The sound came again. This time followed by rumblings and gurglings unmistakable in that still night air to the ear of the uniniti- ' ated. “My word,” Vinckers cried, “that u an elephant or else I’m balmy.” “Daddy!” Hester exclaimed. “It’s not.” “It is though. Now that my coup de theatre is off,” the Colonel admitted in the guilty tone of a small boy who has smuggled home a stray cat or dog he knows the family would not approve. Sandy did not miss the quick look that passed from one to the other of the fresh •• ivals or its significance.* He v>. «n the edge of announcing himself the author of this joke, saying that he had once heard I the Colonel express his fondness for elephants and thought the island would be a perfect place for one, | then caught Isobel’s'eye and held his peace. There was a short silence. Then Vinckers laughed and said casually in the way that a member of the family might attempt to glide over an infirmity of its i head. “So you decided to indulge your fancy, Colonel?” Colonel Carlton seemed to stiffen in his chair. “Well, why not?” he challenged. “The doctor says I’m not to ride a horse, if you want to know. A pony cart’s too baby or senile, and there are no roads fit for a car. An elephant enables me to get about,” and he added as if with deliberate malice—“a royal means of transportation—in keeping with my position here. If you’ll excuse me I’ll go look the old chap over now he’s bedded down.” He walked away to the end of the terrace. Hester followed him with her eye then breathed softly but distinctly: “Well, it’s come!” “What’s come?” Sandy asked. Isabel thrust ©ut her foot and pressed his wamingly. “What we’ve long feared. Alreadv suspected. G. P. senile dementia.” “But why shouldn’t the Colonel ! indulge his fancy? It strikes me this is a perfect place for an elephant Right climate, no lack of fodder and lots of work the can do." Jarvis gave a cackling laugh. “An elephant. My hat!” “Oh shut up, Jarvis,” Flavia said. “You should worry about the seai wall. Molten money poured into blocks and for what?” ■ “Aren’t you ever nervous here, I: Isobel?” Hester asked. *.

“Sometimes,” Isobel admitted in • her silken voice. “Now.” ’ “The beast is apt to get ugly if [ it’s a male,” Vinckers said. “They ’ go mustA. Run smuck.” “So do motor cars when driven ; by drunks," Isobel retorted. “Well, something ought to be , done about it,” Jarvis said. "Now ; my idea is—” There came from a shadowed re- : cess a harsh “Hell’s bells.” The chatter had disturbed the , repose of Jakko the white cockatoo. ; Jarvis gave a tremendous bound. The others laughed. Jarvis said softly. “There ought to be a man on this island—a white man—a resident” “There is,” sc.id Isobel. “An Irishman named Mike. He’s the mahout.” “Worse and more so,” Vinckers groaned.

Jarvis gave a tremendous bound. The others laughed.

“That’s not all that Uncle's got out here,” Isobel said. “What else?” “He’s got a goat. A big white Angara goat named Murphy. But Murphy’s really mine, and he’s going to .take some getting.” ’’his veiled challenge did not get pa>- unobserved. There was a momen?’s silence. Sandy felt that the family conclave was growing, for an outsider, thick. “I’ll be getting out •"card,” he said. He turned toward the lagoon, put a silver siren whistl* to his lips and blew a wailing note. A few flashes of a blinker stabbed through the soft darkness. Hester said to Isobel. "You’re letting him sleep aboard?” “He wants to. He’s writing a book on the Fourth Dimension which he says is the vehicle of love. Married love and family love and—oh, well —love. He came here to get some points. Sharp ones.” “Well, it’s pleasant weather for it,” Flavia said. Sandy wished them good night and started down for the landing. Half way there he heard the click

i of heels and looked round to see Isohel following him. “Aren’t they dreadful? * Hardly land before they get out their little hammers. Those rubber kind the doctors use to percuss you with.” “The doctors don’t use them on your head," Sandy objected. Isobel laughed. Vinckers’ big voice called from the terrace: “Eight bells . . . change the watch .. . They heard hts chairlegs squeak on the tiles as he shoved it back to rise. Isobel answered: “As you were. The dog watch isn’t called in port.” “That,” Sandy said, “was hot. Let's hope it burns through, though the hide of the hyena is tough. I understand a little better why he's not so glad to fine me here.” "Some men would like to press * button that would release a current to kill all the other men in the world

in their tracks," Isobel said. "Vinckers is that sort. Also he counts too much on a convent education. He forgets that I visited at the chateaux of friends.” “That’s oniy a part ct his lapse of memory,” Sandy answered. “Or perhaps he chooses to ignore the fact that he hasn’t pushed that ’ button yet Something tells me that I may still be needed here ” "I’m beginning to think you may be right” Isobel admitted. “Uncle may need you to keep him reminded that he js no esoteric philosopher living on a plane undisturbed by family jars . . . and I may need you to keep me reminded that I am a woman and not a cat” “You may be both, with me for your ball of yarn,” Sandy assured her. “I can stand the snarling if it is done with purrs. And if at any time you feel the need of scratching bark, just fly at me.” "That holds the promise of a precious thought!” (To be continued) C<T»Hxht 1(34 Mr> H<nr> C OlitrlhulW W Bln< rMtaraa IraetcaU.
