Jorvln de manded of Rosemund. who stood be low his window looking up at him, the moonlight grey upon her lace. "I'll tell you it you come- down. Don't wake anyone." He hesitated, irowntng furiously,; What was all this about? He turned hlo wrlBt and looked at the luminous dial of his watch. It was 3 o'clock. What on earth was Rosamund play ing at? "Jervls, I'm In. a perfectly dam nable hole." Ho said, "All right wait a mln ute," and turned Into the room. He got Into some clothes a ten nis Hhlrt, flannel trousers, a blazer, socks, and shoes. Then he went down to. the study, opened the win dow, and got out. "What's the matter?" ho said. "My car broke down." "Where?" "About throe miles away, on the main road." "Well, I'll wake up Mrs. Melllsh. She'll have a room got ready for you.', j. "No no I don't want to do that." She came quite close and put a hand on his arm. "I want to get back. Janet Tetterley doesn't know I'm, out." "What have you been up to?" said Jervls. . 'That's not your business." 'What do you want mo to do?" said Jervls angrily. "Make less noise to start with and then lend a hand with the car." "What's the troublo?" "I've ditched her. We could get her out together, but I can't budge her alone, and thero lmVt likely to be anyono passing for tho next four hours or ao." Jervls did not know what prompt ed htm to say, "You'ro alone?" "Well, would I como and dig you out In the middle of the night If I wasn't? I don't walk three miles In evening shoes for fun." "All right I'll got tho car out and run you back." Rosamund's hand closed on his arm a strong hand for all Its white ness. "No, you can't do that It'll give tho whole show away." "What Is there to give away?" said Jervls. "Well, to be quite frank," Bald Rosamund, "I can't afford another scandal on tho top of turning you down. It Isn't all Jam as It is. Janet's under Basher's thumb though, you wouldn't think It. Basher's a prudo of the first water when It comes to his own womenfolk. If he knew I'd been out all night, he'd never have mo In the house again." "And It's not my business where you've been?" "Well Is It?" "How can you get back without someone finding out?" "It's as cany as maid. Tho second chauffour sleeps over tho garage. Vou couldn't wake him, If you drove a truck through tho room. I've got a key, and I can take her In the same way I took her out, without anyono wing the wiser," So she couldn't havo gone out much boforo midnight. Queer busi ness this. "Well, wo'd better bo getting along," ho said. Rosamund moved, let go of his arm, and stepped out of the shadow. The moonlight touched her uncov ered head and took all the gold out of her hair. It looked grey with threads of silver In It. Her face, her hands, and the column of her throat were llko ivory seen through water. Sho was wrapped In a black Chinese shawl whose embroidered flowers were like faint ghosts whose color and sweetness have died and been forgotten. Sho moved besldo him, walking quickly and In silence. Sho could keep pace with him without effort. Sho produced, as always, an effect of graceful case which was In sharp contrast to the habitual bluntness of her speech. She did not speak now until they were past the gates. Then she said In a mocking voice, "Don't you want to know where I've been?" "Not particularly. "No wonder I Jilted youl You don't care whom I ve been meeting?" "Why should I?" "Do you?" . "No, X don't." . "No healthy curiosity?" ."I'd like to know what you're driving at." "I'd like to know myself," said Rosamund, her voice harsh on the words. ' They walked on without speaking for a couple of hundred yards. Jer vls couldn't help a feeling of ex treme nervousness perhaps It was the fact that his rest had been dis turbed In so curious a manner. Nan had dreamed that he was dead. It wasn't an omen, of course, because he was an Intelligent cltl- aen of the twentieth century who hadn t tho faintest belief In omens and tabus. Yet he could not put It out of his mind. Nor were his nerves due to his strango errand. Nan would never have demanded such a thing at such an hour. Nan would not have gone out on a shady venture; If she had been caught with a ditched car at 2 o'clock In tho morning, she would not have made unreasonable' re quests of the neighbors. Not even 1 odher husband. , ; 1 Yes. .The, mpro he , thought, the, less strange this early morning visit was . Rosamund was a demanding person. She was never a consid erate person. Probably It had seemed ; quite tho proper thing to do, this ! business of flinging pebbles into someone's window to savo her own skin. Ho felt better. Then he askod: I "Are you going to mftrry Leon ard?" "Should you mind If I did?" "Not In the least. But I should think twice before I did it If I were you," "Why?" said Rosamund. : "Tho man's an outsider." , "Thank you he's my cousin I" '"Evoryone's got some dud rela tions. Are you going to marry him?" . "No," said Rosamund. "Well, that's damned sensible of you." Rosamund mtovod a little farther away from him. "You'vo made such a sensible marriage yourself haven't you?" , Jervls said nothing. Quite sud denly, when she said that, ho saw Nan as ho had ecen her settling back against her tossod pillows; her rumpled hair, soft and brown; her little tremulous smile; her eyes clear and shining after rain. . Sensible? That wasn't tho word for tho marriage that had brought Nan Into his life. Who wanted to mako a sensible marriage? Ho had taken a leap In tho dark, and it had landed him In a place of extraordi nary enchantment. You weren't senslblo In an enchanted place. Ho threw back his head and laugh ed. What a Jest fate had played on him. What a gorgeous, rollicking, enchanting Jest! Ousts of laughter shook him. He wanted someone to sharo It with him. But ho couldn't very well share It with Rosamund. It was Just like fate to thrust Rosa mund upon him at this juncture. She had crossed to the other side of tho road. They had reached a bend where half a dozen wind-driven thorn trees stood above the hedge on one side and a row of elms cast a dense Bhadow n cross tho road from the other, "Hero's the car." said Rosamund. "We haven't come throe miles." "It felt llko four In theso shoes." Tho road dipped Into tho shadow. Tho car stood In at an angle to wards tho hedge. Tho place was as black as overhanging boughs could make It. "You ought to havo left your lights on," said Jervls. Rosamund didn't answer. Ho heard her move, but ho couldn't sco her. Ho opened tho door of tho car and leaned forward to switch on tho light. (Copyright, 1032.
