In Grannock's hand, that clasped hers so closely, a pulse mas beating or was it In her own? It was as if at his touch she had become one irith him . . . And now site must shatter this divine oiteness. She must tell him her name and teej the beating puise of kve check and (al ter. Would he strike lier down In the sunlight? Would he turn amay a tialf-sUlled word. . . 1 I was brought up by a very dear unt who Rare me her name be cause my own would haw been notorious. I don't even know what it h: I accepted her verdict upon it nd although she tried to tU It to me I wouldn't let her. She wrote rt tfovn before site died and left It In safe keeping: so that I could know it If ever 1 wished to. But I think perhaps I havenl found the courage ... So when you ask me my name, I can't really tel you. you see." The careful voice stopped and she knew that it was herself who had been talking. Evading. Coward! "But I am going to find out my real name." she added. "II you call me by it. I si mat feel that it is no torious any more." Grannock was laughing softly. "Does It matter what is 'real' and what isn't? Haven't we made our own reality? ... To me, you are the Ivory rose and a voice that has the aound of the sea in it and a great many other things. All in one." He frowned and hall -turned. "I seem to hear people near us Rose." Hallie wrenched her hand from tits and faced the study window. It I named Dr. Lytton. Never in her life had she seen such anger on a man's fare as she now saw upon the doctors. "What Is it?" Crannock asked sharply. It's Dr. Lytton," she said. "Oh!" Grannock laughed again. this time almost shlyly. "It's you. doc? Say, you dKln t obey orders, cud you? I told you to make it clear to to this lady that she as to lor. Ct all about me. But you see she wasn t persuaded. She Just came. Lytton, charging down upon his patient, failed to sue up the auua twn. "Grannock, old man. I don't know what to say to you. I seem to fall Ton right and left. That this should tiave happened t Come In and rest a little. You're overtaxing yourself. squandering your nervous strenxtli. Nurse Casey!" He barked It over his ahculder. "Oct Mr. Grannock In door, please. Order him some cof fee" "Order coffee for two." put in Grannock quietly. "In the drawing room. And perhaps you will be good enouirh to see that we this lady and I are not disturbed." What's that?" snapped Lytton. Something about his patient then taught his nttention and Ik liesitat cd. "What's that?" lie repeatr un certainly. "It's most inadvisable that yon should have any kind of discus aton with Nurse ElleMnore, old man. You just leave her to "I've no intention of seeinfi I mean, interviewing Nurse Eiles more, cut in Gramiork with Impa tience. "As a matter of fact, I thought she'd left the house." He turned his sightless gaxe towards Halite. "As X cant leaed you Into tie house, will you leaed me? We follow this path to the front door. And if we meet this Ellesmore wo man on tlie way I'd rattier not be told." "Ah!" The gasping sigh came not from Bailie but from Nurse Carey. Halite's hand had sprung to her mouth at that moment when Lytton uncon sciously blundered away her secret: she had tood so while Grannock's rejoinder told her that even now he had not guessed it. But Nurse Casey, whom no one had watched, whom no one had re garded as more than a necessary piece of surgical equipment Nurse Casey was once attain succumbing to the temptation oi becoming "per sonal" about a patient, fighting with her tears, she rushed at Hal- lie and tried to push tier amay lioui Graiiitock. What's the matter?" fretted Gran-, nock. He put a hand up to his band-! ages. "Oh, my God. this bhndnes will take a lot of setting used W What t& happening? Ro&e ? Yes." she answered him faintly but Immediately. "Yes. I'm here." He made a movement towards her and at that Dr. Lytton came to Hi. "No, I'm sorry but I really must forbid" His voice roughened and he had to start again. "I'm in charge of your case, old man. and you must do as I tell you. You're not fit t en tertain Nurse this to entertain anvbodv today." "Wait a minute!"- complained Grannock. His hand went up to his baiidaaes again and Hallie s heart broke atresh at the jxithos of the gesture . . . Ignoring both Lytton and the little nurse she moved close to Granock and laid her hands up on his shoulders. "If you still want me tomorrow, 111 come," she said. "It's quite true you must rest now. But there will be tomorrow. "You promise that?" he aiked oulcklv. Then, before she could re ply "But I dont need to make you promise. If you say it, it will oe so. Till tomorrow-, then." "If you will still want me." she re peated. "I mill come." His laugh changed to a groan and, with the sound of it In her ears. Hallie left him. She turned the ad iacent corner of the house and be gan to run. As she ran out of the garden, down the drive, out into the road she thought one tmng oniy and that wa-s "In a few minutes now I shall be able to cry. In a tew minutes I shall be able to cry. ttut when at last she gamed her solitude, no tears would come. tTo be Continued.)
