R ich ard h a t R lc tran sferred and San­

and her gran d fa th e r. John I., try to

wom an th a t she w ill not stay.
She

“ I haven’ t even dared le t m yself
th in k since R ic ’ s le tte r came And
there's another danger. Dave This
woman knows R ichard. She knew
h im in H a w a ii. He telephoned last
night. He told me th a t he had trie d
to prevent this m a rria g e by having
R ic sent away, but th a t they were
too quick fo r h im .”
"So R ic knows about his fa th e r ' '
“ No. R ic doesn’ t know. R ich a rd
d id n 't te ll him . And J ill doesn’t

’ ’T hey’ ll have to know, Dooley.
Surely you can see now th a t your
only protection is the tru th ? "
"D a ve , I c a n 't te ll them ! I ca n 't

“ B ut R ic h a rd is a liv e ! You have
a liv in g p ersonality to deal w ith
now. not a shadow, not a m em ory.
I th in k y o u 're ta k in g an a w fu l

J ill m uch worse than the tru th
would be. I th in k you’ re dead

“ M aybe

she sighed.
Dave steered c a re fu lly through
the th in tra ffic on the edge of the
town.
"T o m y m ind, the best protection
J ill can have is the tru th . B ut I ’ m
not going to argue w ith you. I t ’ s
yo u r own problem , yo u 've had the
m ise ry of i t a ll these years, you’ve
got the a n xie ty of i t now. You m ay
be able to count on R ich a rd to keep
his id e n tity concealed. I t ’s to his
own interest, of course. It would be

W ar D e p a rtm e nt got w ind of it.
There are alw ays a few b la ckb ird s
in e ve ry a rm y , but i f th e y ’ re found

"W h a t is a b la c k b ird ? ”
“ A m an who gets discharged
fro m a m ilita r y u n it fo r some rea­
son, o r who deserts o r leaves his
com m and w ith o u t c o m p lyin g w ith
regulations and then enlists some­
where else under an assumed name.
T h a t’ s the spot R ic h a rd is in, rig h t
now, and he’s p ro b a b ly

acutely aw’are of it, than even you
are. I doubt i f he’ ll s ta rt anything.
He was ta kin g a ris k , even to le t
you know th a t he was alive. B u t i f
th is wom an knows a n yth in g about
it, th a t’ s another angle and a bad
one.”
“ She saw R ic h a rd ’ s p ic tu re in
J i ll ’ s room and id e n tified i t in ­
sta n tly as a p ic tu re of Roger
M ackey. I could see h e r m ind w o rk ­
ing. She's a type I ’ ve never m et
before, Dave. I d o n 't know e xa ctly
how to deal w ith h e r.”
"W h y on earth did R ic send her
to you, anyw ay?”
"Because he d id n ’ t know w hat
else to do w ith her. He was shipped
out suddenly — R ichard did th a t —
and I suppose she had no money.
There's nothing at a ll to do. Dave,
but w a it.”

“ H ere's the movie. I suppose we
should go in .” J u lia 's voice was
w eary. "G o in and look at im ita tio n
tra g e d y and forget our own. The
sickening thing fo r me, Dave, is the
re a liz a tio n th a t I m ust be a ve ry
w eak person. No strong woman
could have m uddled up one life as
I have m uddled m in e .”
"W h a t did you have to do w ith
it? ”
Dave demanded,
a little
a n g rily . "D id you create any of
these circum stances, by any act of
your own? You’ ve taken w hat came
w ith courage and made the best of
it. I won’t have you b la m in g y o u r­
se lf.”
"B u t I m ust be to blam e fo r Ric.
A m o th e r has to be to blam e. Dave.
Y our c h ild is given to you—clean,
p lastic clay, nothing carved upon
the surface at a ll, a ll new and un­

I haven’t even a fa th e r’ s influence
fo r an a lib i w ith Ric. I fa ile d some­
how to p u t strength in to his s p irit,
to m ake h im wise enough to judge
values, to give h im the courage to
re je ct e ve ryth in g th a t wasn’ t good
and fine. I t isn’ t pleasant to know
th a t you’ ve failed w ith yo u r only
son.”
" Y o u ’re all wrong, Dooley. Any

“ I d id have the co n tro l of d ire c ­

the weakness and e lim in a te d the
meanness and b u ilt up w hat was

By the tim e he was seven he was
