CHAPTER 11
8id did not come again, but
Eugene called three nights later,
when Jennifer's pln for avoiding
him had been forgotten, and they
talked together lor a few brief
minute In the parlor. Always
pale and Insignificant In ap
pearance, he now looked weary
and sick at well. He told her
quickly, not sluing down, not re
moving his coal, mat he had
slept liadly since he had seen
her last, that he had been pos
sessed of but one thouaht that
he must know.
"That man Burrows, you said
his name was? what was he ever
to you? He came In as If be
were at home. His manner . . . 1
could have killed turn for his
manner . , ."
"Eugene, wont you sit down?"
Jennifer's face was as pale as his
'own: the grip of his two hands
on her hurt her.
"No, I can't ait down. They're
holding dinner for me at home;
I said I'd be there before eight.
Jennifer, you never loved him?
You never gave him the right to
call you 'darling'? Tell me. You
liked him. you were friends, but
he was never your premised hus
band? Not a man like tnat-a
worldling. You'll not see htm
aealn? If you promise me that
The man's very presence is I
pollution. Can't you won't you
promise yourself to me, give me
hope, let me protect you from
the contagion of a man like
that? I'll wait.' IH serve you
aeven years and another seven
years, but I cannot leave you to
the danger"
"Eugene." She Interrupted the
wild now or worai geninr, ai
miM Tjitvinslv. "Sit down," Jen
nifer said again, aittlns down her-
sell. Eugene aeaiea nimseu De
side her and again gripped both
her hands in his own cold thin
fingers.
'I know." he said, "I know that
you've been admired. That's nat
ural. That doesn't surprise me.
Anything else would surprise met
And I know the manners of those
people the arrogance. Complete
ly sure of themselves I You never
liked him?"
"I did love him, Eugene," Jen
nlfer said quietly. "He made me
very unhappy. But I've told him
now thai I never will see him
again."
"You loved him. But people
don't jfve and then atop loving.
You thought you loved him," Eu
gene said feverishly. "You say ha
made you unhappy. How did he
make you unhappy?"
' "I thought we were going to be
married," Jennifer sal. looking
squarely at him while the color
slowly drained from his face. "I
trusted him. I don't have to tell
you this, Eugene, but I want to.
Nobody else knows. Mot Betty.
Not anyone."
There was an unmistakable
significance In her tone. The man
sat looking at her steadily, blood
darkening his temples.
"You don't have to tell me any.
thine," he said.
"I wanted you to know that."
1 don't know what to aay," Eu
tenr presently murmured In a
vague, nuzzled tone, "I dont
think you know what you're say
ing." "I never wanted to see him
again. I tried to forget," Jennifer
began, the fell silent. "You can't
forget things that have really
happened," she laid.
"He asked you to marry him?
Why didn't you?"
"He never did." It waa all so
strangely simple and easy the
cold, unvarnished truth. Jenni
fer was glad to get It aald: she
already felt the relief of It. Weari
ness and ahamefacedneaa but
Infinite relief.
She felt a curious Impersonal
sympathy for Eugene. He was
shocked to the Innermost fibers of
his being; he could make no secret
f it. The contemplation of sin
was sickening to him.
Jennifer could be son? for him.
But at the same time she felt
no need of explanation. Justifica
tion, apology. Her tragedy was
her own; and she waa very tired.
"I'm not going to keep you," she
you." she said to him, for the mo
ment the older of the two. "Well
are each other again. I'm terribly
tired tonight: I'd Just told Betty
that I was going to bed as soon
as the dishes were done, and now
I've left her to do them alone.
Good-bye, Eugene and come
whenever you want to . . . .When
ever you can . . ."
She was hardly conscious of
what ahe waa saying, and Euaene
spoke not at all. He held her two
hands for a moment in the hall
and then went swiftly down the
long sum. She heard the door
close behind him.
A week went by and there was
no sign from Eugene. Jennifers
nerves had somewhat quieted and
ahe felt herself once more restored
to normal living And thinking.
Now and then her thoughts went
ta Sid but the old ache, the
hull and the longing were gone;
it was only with a sort of weary
satisfaction In her own changed
feeling that ahe (ememsred him
now.
.Than rtna nisht she got home,
tired and grimy and cold, Betty
had news.
-See in the paper about Eugene
Eugene Evansl What" Jennifer
sat down neavtiy n wis
table, her frightened eyes fixed
on her etepmoiner.
"Knocked down In the street
Mnt unini tn live his father said.
"His fatherl Did you telephone
his father?" , ,
"Nope, his fattier telephoned
here. Says he wants to see you.
"Mr Evans wants uj see ni
Jennifer asked, her mouin dry.
HHn tfiioanik does"
-Oh, then he's conscious? Then
he wasn't ameai
"His father said 'dying.'"
"urh.t htnivnNl. BettV?
The paper said he waa knocked
down by a truck. They held the
driver. But he says the driver
asys that Eugene started to cross
on me rea ugnt, sioyvcu m w
middle of the street, and turned
back. Says he stepped right In
front of the truck; there was no
way of missing mm.
Jennifer began to tremble. Rain
was falling; ahe completed her
costume with her msshed old rain
hat, worn raincoat and rubbers,
and was ready half an hour later
when the Evans car was at the
door. .
She was frightened and trem
bling a they went through the
white halls. In the waiting room
Mollie and Mollie'a husband and
Eugene's parents and others of
th famllv. all white-faced and
red-eyed were sitting. Eugene's
mother embraced Jennifer on a
burst of tears; his father asked
In a low voice If she would come
uo immediately to the sickroom.
Still without speech Jennifer put
her cold hand in nia ana uiey
went to the big elevator.
Thev came to a row of private
rooms; the wide doors had neither
lock nor knobs. Jennifer and her
companion silently pushed one
door open and she saw a high
bed and Eugene lying In It swath
ed In white bandages, with the
fingers of one bandaged hand
moving on the white sheet. His
eyes were anut, nv lace oioooiess.
The Driest who was with him
murmured something and went
away; the nurse slipped quietly
from the room. Eugene's father,
too, was gone. She wss alone with
the sick man. She went to the
side of the bed and knelt down,
taklnsr his hand in both of hers
and laying her cheek against his
fingers.
Eugene opened his eyes, frown
ing as if the effort hurt him.
closed them again.
"It's you. Jennifer." he whis
pered. "They were good to send!
Thank my father for that."
Silence. Jennifer could seem to
think of nothing to aay.
"bwaa ao wrong." Eugene said
In the merest essence of his old
voice. "I waa wrong all the way.
I kept thinking of punishment.
But lis au iorgiveness every
where, for everything. It's si
much brighter than I thought it
could be.
Jennifer, awed, still could not
speak. She raised her head and
loosed at nun in ieaniu las-
clnatlon.
Forgiveness even for me," he
whispered.
You. Eugene I" Jennifer ex
claimed. "You've always been so
good. You dont need forgive
nessl"
"Even for this understanding
and forgiveness. Even for me
lye judged everyone except
myself," he ssid after another
cause In which lie breathed hard
struggling to find his voice. "We
mustn't Judge. It's ail forgive
ness." he said. -I ve oeen stum
bling about in blackness all
these davs. T aaw It. vou know.
I saw it coming. I turned back.
I've told my father. Nobody else.
Not my mother ever. Jenni
fer .. ."
It wasnt that Truly it wasnt
that." She caught at his arm
She wanted him to be fatherly
to be kind to her now at he had
been on the happy night of
Mollle's nam. "I can't tell you
what it was. Mr. Evsns. But
truly It wasn't that! I did like
him . . . You were all so terribly
kind to me . . ."
"Ah well." he murmured, not
hearing her. He Joined the other
men and they went away, jen
nifer stood perlectlv still for
lont minute, her cheeks burning
Then she went out Into the light
