Chapter Six
There was one perron, Peggy felt, whose advice about Bow would be sensible and unbiased. That was Rachel Jackson. So she went to the wife of "Old Hickory” and confided her decision to wed the young
officer.
"How soon you want to get mar-
ried?" asked Rachel.
“Right away,” said Peggy. “Marriage, honey, ain’t a party
dress,” answered Rachel. "You got t> wear it mornin’, noon an’ night."
“I know,” said Peggy. "The rea-
son we don’t want to wait is that Bow’s going away on a three months’ cruise to the West Indies."
“Well, if you ain’t dead sure,”
said Rachel thoughtfully, "I wouldn’t be hurryin’ things. He’ll
be back.”
"But I do feel sure," exclaimed Peggy. “He’s so alive — always laughing — always warm and ten"Why don’t you do this,” suggested Rachel, with apparent artlessnese. "John Randolph's a good friend of youro. Why don’t you get
his advice?”
Peggy gave a start, but quickly
controlled heisJf.
"John Randolph has gone back to his home in Roanoke," she said
quietly.
"For a long spell, honey?” asked
Rachel.
"I don’t know. I didn’t see him before he left. But, anyway, L

gentleman has asked me to marry

"A different gentleman this time?” returned Randolph, his emotions held in vice-llke control as he parried words. "You know him, John,” said Peggy. "It’s Lieutenant Bow Timber-
lake."

cause I won’t If — ’’
Randolph, his ears ringing as if with the sound of mocking laughter, was not listening any further. HLs abnormal pride not only made It Impossible now to tell her what was in his heart, but demanded that he give some sharp retort. “My counsel to you," he said deliberately, "Is to accept the proposal of the first presentable young gentleman who may wish to honor you with the mantle of respectability.'' Peggy, her face suffused with crimson anger, turned silently and left him. Randolph stared after her, his face a mask, his mind a raginj cauldron. His earlier decision, never to see her again, must now bo enforced, but underneath was a terrible regret that he had given way to the perverse impulse of insulting the only woman he had ever loved. The marriage of Peggy and Bow took place aboard the U.S.S. Constitution. When they arrived home at the Inn late at night, after a celebration aboard the frigate, Bow gaily insisted on the privilege of carrying his bride down the corridor and across the threshold of his room. The Jacksons were awakened by the sounds of laughter anV scuffling in the hall, and tho General angrily threw off the covers
and got up.
"What’s all this rampagin’ in the dead o’ night?" he muttered to
RacheL
Finding a shoe that had dropped from Peggy's foot outside Bows room, Jackson began to pound furiously on that door. When Bow responded the General looked as if hr had intentions of strangling him. The appearance of Peeo-v only served to arouse him still more. "What are you doin’ In there?"
wouldn't want to ask him about It." When l eggy left the room General Jackson emerged from the bedchamber. where he had been catching snatches of the conversation. “By tellin' that little minx to talk to John,” he cried out, "you're stompin' on gunpowder." Rachel regarded him with a Knowing smile os he paced back and forth in front of her, but said nothing. "Ain’t you watched John Randolph?" he went on. "Ain't it clear as gospel he loves the little hussy hi'self? Always has!" “Why, Andy Jackson!" exclaimed Rachel innocently. “You don t mean it?” The C-neral stared at his wife and for the first time realized that she had been pulling his leg. Urging hia coachman on, with all the buoyant zest of a schoolboy, John Randolph covered the last few miles going into Washington. He looked a different man entirely; the strained, tense expression was gone from his face, and In its place was one of eager expectancy. When he reached the courtyard of the Franklin Inn he leaped from his carriage, astounded Horatiue by giving him a friendly slap on the back, and hurried inside, where the first P' .-son he encountered was Daniel Webster. "Well, Dan,” ho said with a cheerful salute, "how's your constitution?" The famous orator stared after him in bewildered uncertainty, as ho mn 1 ■ his way wi’hont further pause up the stairs. At the top of tbs brlustraue he met Rachel Jackson. “ Pon my soul, John Randolph!” she exclaimed In surprise, "apeakin’ of the devil — ” "A he- y devil," answered Randolph. "One who has finally come to hi.! senses." "John," said Rachel uneasily, sens' g v/hot he meant. “I think I out;!.!, to bo te'.lin’ you — ” "Later on," ha cut in, with a pal on her shoulder. "I've got soinethingAcry urgent to do right now." He hun'ed down the corridor and paused before Peggy's door. For the fir.’t time be had come to r alizc how blind he had been in hi.! attitude towerd her, how he had been <'.' 1 • ’ .-n. r hi ms If. She was very young, true, but she had lc«s artifice than any other six women he knew, coupled with an extraordinarily fascinating personality. Peggy, when she opened the door, was • > startled to see him that eh’ d.J not read the obvious message In "John," she said, “I’m so glad you’ve come, 1 here’s something very important T must as’; you.” “Ask me anything in the world."

he asked her, fists clenched. “I have a perfect right to be my husbands room, answe;
Peggy.
“None o’ your sailor’s tricks!” cried Jackson to Bow, suspiciously. "But, General, we’re really married,” said Peggy, "We've got the papers to prove it.” Bow produced a paper from his pocket and Jackson, without benefit of his customary spectacles strained his eyes in the candlelight to look at it. Apparently everything was all right, for his snorts subsided and ho turned to give Peggy an affectionate congratulatory kiss. It was only after he had left the room that the couple discovered the paper they had mistakenly given him to read was an order commanding Bow to report for patrol service aboard the Consti-
tution.
After a honeymoon of a few brief days Bow departed for service in the Caribbean. Peggy tried to conceal her loneliness at parting from him, but she took no enjoyment in any of her former activities and the hours were leaden. John Randolph she never saw, and Rowdy Dow felt that his company was not wanted. Days with incredible slowness passed into weeks, then months. At last the tinm arrived when tho Constttu!ion was scheduled to return home. Cuthbcrt excitedly brought word that the fcoct had been sighted, and lie and Peggy 1 based down to the wharf, where they appropri-
ated a neighbor's rowboat.
When Peggy clambered on board the cruising vessel and asked excitedly for Bow. she v/as told that she would ha\e to report to t'. Commander's office. This s»ruc i her as strange. .She didn't even
know thc Commander.
"Where’s Bov/?" the asked anxi-
ously, entering.
The Commander motioned her to 0. chair and spoke in a low, mo
chanical voice.
"On the twenty second of Jun" * he said, "Li3i.;i':iaiit Timberlake and a number ot his follow officer* v/ent ashore at th- port of Maracaibo. We are not av-cte of what brought on the trouble, but when our rescue party arrived, your husband was dead, from several mortal
knife wounds."
Peggy did not hear any more. © 193G-- Metro-Goldwyn-M:'.yei Corp. (Tomorrow: Peggy, fighting to forget the past, centers ail her interests in f!ie presidential campaign of Andrew Jackson. Out with the Jacksons one afternoon, she sees John Randolph for the first time in five
