Th Story of WmwTi Transformation lv ftAHtOM MTMNCAM

Chapter 56 HEARTBREAK Thoroughly alarmed by Violet's cry. I hurried down the pathetic, ridiculous passage James had cut th rough the

hay to his retreat. I went through the door, and into the dark room. Jim said he had "smashed it" what he meant 1 could not tell then. Hut I saw now, even in the faint light, that the engine had been torn or thrown down, and that tools and "wheels and ctraps and other pieces of r.!l the things James worked with, were lying all over the place. Evidently Jim, perhaps searching for tome tool, perhaps even hunting the barn for the hen that concealed her nest, stumbled on this passage. He would wonder, first, whv the hay had

not been piled up close to the stone wall I knew him so well I could tell his various reactions. He would be f;ngry at the waste of space. He would crowd in. wondering how much fpace was wasted. Then seeing the boards overhead lhat held away the liay and formed the passage, he would aspect something and keep up his Investigations. Then, of course, there was the door well enough concealed to any but a sharp-eyed person like Vi, or to a man with his suspicions aroused. And of course, he would be hot, choked with dust, and artery when he reached the workroom. To a man with his temper, this was like pourina; oil on smouldering fire. He would find his tools there, suspect James had stolen them we

never convinced him that he boy did t'ot and siezing the first heavy tool, he would demolish the place. And this was exactly what had happened. v I went through trembling. In the dim lisrht I saw Violet bending over a dark figure and the sound of sobbing. The whole thing was so confused, and I was so upset and nervous from the ouarrel. that I was sure James had killed himself and Violet was bending over him, crying. But it was James who was crying, pnd Vlnlet was sitting with her arms .Tcmnd him. -nonlng those odd meaningless syllable that women use when thpv want o comfort.
