the
Chapter 24
The Invalid'. Visitor.
Much to the amazement of
entire Mack family, both Thorn
dyke and Jocelyn became dally vis
itors to the sunny front bedroom
where Gramp lay helpless but far
from speechless.
Jocelyn, on the second day of
Cramp's confinement, asked per
mission of Mrs. Mack to use the in-ter-communicatlng
door between
the second floor hallways; so the
Macks did not always see her come
and go, yet her voice, sometimes
eager and laughing, sometimes low
and soothing, could be heard min
gling with Cramp's crackling fal
setto and delighted cackle. She
brought him roses, hyacinths, and
tall red gladioli from her garden.
also pictures of her grandmother
and colorful stories of the early
days in California.
In the beginning she admitted
honestly to herself she had come
because she felt a grudging obi
gation; because she remembered
how much Grandma Jocelyn had
once loved this old man. What she
did not admit honestly to herself
was a growing. Impelling, rather
frightening urge to see more of
young Talbot; frightening because
so many years she had accepted
placidly the fact of her eventual
marriage to Geoffrey Renting; yet
now that it was Imminent she
found herself plagued by disturb
ine thoughts and memories.
"Josie's a right sweet girl,"
Oramp imparted to Tally when
they were alone a few minutes one
morning. "She's Just always had
too much money an' her grandma
spoiled her. She sets in here an
talks an' laughs like any girl. 1 got
a sneakin' idea things is goin' to
change a powerful lot"
"Sure," Tally agreed, his face
Inscrutable, "she's going to marry
Geoffrey Kensing in a little over
two weeks and leave her. to live
In his big town house."
"You don't, want her leavln'?"
old Mack questioned softly.
Tally shrugged. "What differ-
ence can It possibly make to me?
She hates the sight of mo. one
told me so often enough."
"Well" Gramp drawled "if
wanted a gal I wouldn't let her get
awav. Not easy-like, anynow.
Tally changed to the subject of
Thorndyke. "I can't figure why he
comes to see you, Grarr.n. He "eve.
had any use for us. Now he
bounces in and out of the house
with the look of a kid hiding In a
deeD. dark secret"
"Mebbe he is. Now quit totherln'
me. Tally."
The same ouestion occurred to
Jocelyn but Thorn's explanation
to her was no more satisfactory
than old Talbot Mark's to Tally
Two weeks after ranip's a'd
dent Thorn stole Into his room
with the air of a conspirator and
hilt the door.
"I cloned the deal!" he declared
extending a deed for Gramp's in
spection. "That thousand acres cost
me exactly $40,000. I hated the
Idea of sinking all my capital, but
I figured it was really no risk oe
eaiuui Inside of another month II
sell It to the government at a big
profit. If anything harpens that I

Mvh ill do that, anyhow Still.
that would take more tlmr and if
I tan act a oulck turn-rier i ll proo
evhlv make as much Profit. Just
wait until Nola hears .bout this'"
Nat Worried a Bit"
Gramp almost choked with sup
pressed glee. He chewed hard on
his tobacco until he felt his voice
could be trusted, then .aid: Thaf
a heap o' cash to put out on my
say-so. What if that geologist was
wrong? What if there wot no
oil?"
"No ... no oil?" Thorn stuttered
bis fact lining with conatema'
Hon. "But that couldn't happen it
couldn't. You said the land was
full of oil and the government
wanted it!"
"Sure," Gramp soothed. "1 Jest
was supposln'. If I was you, though.
I'd get a geologist on my own to
take a look at the property before
writln' the gov'ment.''
A good idea," Thorn concurred,
"even if there lsnt the slightest
doubt in our minds. It pays to have
conclusive proof. Say ..." he faced
the old man with sudden suspicion
. "why didn't you think of that
before I bought the land? I should
have Investigated first! The only
reason I didn't was because you
said to keep It secret and I was
afraid someone might get wind of
it and offer a higher price than 1
could pay."
"Mebbe so," Gramp nodded.
Mebbe so. You didn't tell me you
was goln' to buy It right off,
though, or I mlght've figured some
way o' making sure. Cant blame
me for somethln' you didn't tell
me."
Well, I guess that's true enough.
I was hasty, I suppose, but I'm not
worried. Not worried a bit."
Know when you're liable to get
the abstract on the property?"
"Abstract? Oh you mean the
paper which gives the history of
the land, its owners, et cetera"
Yep." Oramp appeared slignuy
apprehensive.
'Oh. I don t know, rreny soon, x
guess. I'll have to have It, I sup
pose, before I sell it to the govern
ment."
When Thorndyke had gone to
make arrangements for a geologist
to look over and make a report on
the property. Cramp settled back
Into his pile of pillows. He had
counted on Thorn, utterly lnexper
enced in business and financial
matters, to swallow the hook as well
as the bait. So far, so good, nut
when Thorn found out the truth
there was apt to be a major cata
clysm 1
However. Oramp ruminated, Dis
missing worry from his mind, there
was yet another Job to do. Some
how he had to maneuver this two
legged horse called Geoffrey off the
track.
Jocelyn. having spent the enure
afternoon watching Geoff and his
polo team work out the new string
of ponies on the Dunes Polo field,
demanded tea and sandwiches of
him when he emerged from the
shower, his fair hair plastered ag
ainst his skull, his big square body
encased In white flannels
Geoff eulogised his horses over
the tea table in the cool club patio
until he observed, even lit his ab
sorption, that Jocelyn was pay
ing no attention. Her eyes had a
vague, dreamy light in them and
her mouth drooped pensively at
the comers.
"Are you bored, Lyn?"
"Yes, Geoff, I am."
"Well, it's Just a mood." he dls
missed equably. "You like horses
Just as much as I do. When are
you going to San Francisco on I
shopping tour for your trousseau?
"I don t know. There was an
evasive quality in her tone which
annoyed him.
"But, Lyn, our wedding Is only
a little more than two weeks off."
"I know it. Take me home now
will you? I promised Oramp to
run in for awhile before dinner."
"Aren't you being rather rldicu.
lous, Lyn? Running in to see that
old crack-pot every day. I don't
like It. As a matter of fact, I don't
think you care a darn about him or
his broken legs; you Just use him as
an excuse to see that grandson of
his!"
"Now you re being ridiculous!'
she flared. "I use the communlcat
Ing door on the upper floor and I
seldom see a Mack."
"Much to your disappointment."
he grumbled. "First you have a fit
because they move in, then you go
Into tantrums because they mutilate
Seacllff. and now you practically
live with them!"
"That is not true. Vouie being
stupidly Jealous, Oeoff. I did resent
them at first I still feel badly about
Seacliff but I am beginning to un
derstand their side of It. They they
couldn't help It. They had to live
and eat. Even if they havent illus'
trtous ancestors they are human be-tags."
"Well, I don't want you running
in there. People tal' enough as It Is
about you and young Talbot."
"I don't believe you. You're mak'
lng that up and it's a mean story!
You know Grandma wanted the
Macks at Seacllff. You know she
always cared about old Talbot,
went to see him for her sake. I knew
she'd want me to. I keep on going
now because I want to. It's fun
like Gramp."
