Rhe parked the car In the road and walked up the lane that she thought must lead to Chris' camp. A pounding at her heart made the climb breathtaking but ahe went ahead. She did not think what she would My Brat—but he’d see that she had come to him and that would be enough. Reaching th* level of the clearing she looked over It eagerly but he was nowhere in sight. The door of the house was half open and she went to IL knocked, smiling as she remembered her demand of him. When no one answered the knock she pushed the door further open and supped inside.

She aaid, "1 hope you have a very pleasant vacation." and Jeremy said. “Thanks." and got out of the car and went almost ala run up the path to the house. • * • Two hours later Tommie Abel pounded on the Streeter door. "Doc!" he called, loudly. John opened the door. ~ “Ma say* for you to come quick! The teacher's dyin'l" Marilyn was behind John. She eaught his arm. "Want me with you?" - John shook off her hand. “Mr*. Abel's there. If 1 need anything I’U send the kid back..." He waa sick with shock; he had no doubt as to what had happened. The possibility of it had hung at the edge of ht* mind ever since Jeremy had called at his office. And he had done nothing about it. Two women met him In the Abel kitchen. "She'o upstair*. Doctor. Mra Abel’s with her.* "She screamed out awful and Mr*. Abel went up ond found her.

"Right In her*, Doctor." Jerpmy lay on the narrow bed, her eye* cloaed. To all appearance* she wa* barely conscious. A low moan came weakly with each breath. One hand hung over the •dge of the bed and a trickle of blood dripped from her wriat to the rag car|>ctlng on the floor. Her other hand lay limp on the bedcover. John lifted it a very little and took the razor blade from under it and slipped it into hi* pocket "I* she going to die. Doctor?" asjud one of the women behind him. , : A quick examination of her wrist had shown him that the wound wm little more than skin deep. He had hl* finger o*l her pulse. "No, she isn’t going to die." There was a groat relief in his voice. "A nervous collapse—she must have cut herself on something and she may be one of the one* who go to pieces at the sight of Hood* . “She'S acted nervous, lately,*t said Mrs. AbeL “If one of yoy will open that window, please. And another get some hot tea ready.* He looked down at Jqremy. Even though she was not going to die it was no less shocking that she had tried to take her life.
