Una doee, and ootlapeee at hie car dt appear Chapter 40 BINDING BARBARA IT wu s month later that Arml tage again cam to the West country. He drore the beautiful Deralet tenderly, because It was one day to be Barbara's; but he drore resourcefully, demanding rery ounce ot power and speed, because he was In a hurry. He remembered with detachment bow he had been In no hurry at all on bis first Journey down. He had almost dawdled on the road, post ponlng the moment when he should present himself, the conventional week-end guest, at South-the-Wa-ter; wishing that It was the Upper Mallard vicarage to which h was going; wishing that he had stayed 1 at home. Not even dimly sonslng what havoc was to be made ot him by a girl's upturned (ace, pearl-clear In the dusk. He entered Kings Mallard on .this second occasion In the late afternoon and (ound his way at once to the house where Barbara had had her lodgings. He knew be would not find her there, but he hoped tor Information. Mrs. Lodely bad frightened him. Mrs. Lodely had complained to him loudly and Irrelevantly ot the sud den alienee ot Barbara. "Sllppln' away that party night, without say In' good-bye I . "And only a line since to say the Way End house Is sold furnished and my poor old belongings stored In some furniture warehouse that I'll bet Is damp and costln' m 1 don't know whatl It's selfish of her, pntttn' me to expense like that. And Mark amllln' to himself when ever I ask him where she Is and what she's np tol No use ever try In' to get a scrap of news out of Mark." Armltage had politely commend- ed her patience whilst his own had Immediately and entirely deserted him. He bad ordered the Devalet and a packed bag and had left Lon don within the hour, ' "No, air," Barbara's landlady leaned her shapeless bulk against the door-post, "Mix Quentln ain't been In Mallard, not sence she tuk Mrs. Lodely's boxes away. To Toxeter, she'd be, llkoly." "No, - I've Inquired In Toxeter. Nothing Is known of her at the house she bad there and ber shop Is sold to a comparative stranger." Armltage reflected. His mind was blankly silent The Yarn Map ket lay ananswerlng under the win ter wind. He sighed, re-startod the Deralet and found that he waa muttering "At Bcgey Cove.1. , , Barbara there? it seemed non sensical. He glanced at his watch It waa not yet six o'clock, not too late, really, and not too cold for a healthy girl to walk by the sea shore. The bay could not be far (rom here. He waa there In four minutes, tor the stony road of his memory had been replaced by very fair paving. There was area a parking-place where he coulcr leave the Devalet "Do you know If there la a lady on the shore t" he asked the man who came to collect the foe. "Dp towards Bogey Head sho went She didn't ought to go tup ther. Tide's oomlng In." "I'll bring her back." Armltage stepped out on to erlsp, olid shingle. The moon was young and faint In an uncertain sky. He strode towards a group ot rocks that awakened childish memories. As he rounded the rocks, he saw her. She was standing with bent bead, kicking a hole In the aand with her heeL She was bare-headed and, under the cloud-hnng moon, her hair looked like a crest of foam. She had not beard him come and, afraid ot startling her, he stopped and attempted to light a cigarette. He knew exactly when the abortive purt of flame caught her gate and he threw away the cigarette and moved nearer. "Barbara!" "Who who Is ltt" And then, as though ashamed of the evasion TORCH SLAYER E RACKKTTSACK, H.

Barbara i aeft-Addmma 4tw -too cant mm 'you are Farrell Armltage. 1 know." The sound of the clear, soft voice speaking through that salty dusk, sent the blood , to his temples. Roughly, be took control of himself. There was so much to be said and he must not keep her long on this spray-swept shore. He noticed that she had a tweed coat on, not very heavy. "Turn your collar up," he said. "I'm not cold. I came down here because I wanted to feel the wind and the spray before I go away from the west country. I'm starting work In London tomorrow." "You are so elusive," he said, bis voice strange to his ears. "How do you manage to be here by the sea when you live neither in Toxeter nor Kings Mallard?" 'But don't you know I'm staying with Mr. Proro at Upper Mallard?" Armltage laughed. At the old, woll-loved Vicarage, the one place he had not thought ofl 'I didn't realise you and the vicar wore such friends," he said. "I never Imagined you'd be there." "We aren't; though I've known him alt my life. In a way. You see. when I'd done the alterations at South-the-Water and finished the Toxeter house and sold It I had no home. And then I met Mr. Frere In Toxeter and he said I must come and stir the creatures In his pond. I was afraid I should be a nuisance to him but he said 1 shouldn't, so long as I didn't make him drink tea. So I'm always out for tea. But, Far roll" "Barbara?" "If the vicar didn't tell you I was down here by the sea, how could you possibly hnve known?" I shall not tell you that until I am quite certain that you will be lieve me." He thought that the color swept her face but the moonlight was troachorous. The end ot her scarf touched his shouldor. He hold It gontly. "You didn't marry Mark," he said very low. " "You didn't cheat," she sold on a quick, timid broath. "I've been trying to find courage to apologise for accusing you of It, but I simply oouldn't write. And 1 thought It might be easier when 1 met you." "It was Poole you beard com menting on Lodely," he said after a silence, "To McLoughlln, the car toonist Apparently Leila Cane told Lodely that you were downstairs but went home directly afterwards. When I heard that you had coma to my house," his voice thickened, "alone, late at night and had not received the barcBt sign ot common hospitality, you, who ought to have been carried over the threshold." He checked himself as she took a startled stop backwards. ' "But It wasn't anybody's fault" she protested, "except Mark's. No harm was done " "No harm. Since you didn't mar ry Mark. I had no means ot finding out whether you and he wore mar ried fof some days" "But why not? Mark would have told you that surely?" "Mark," he said slowly, "had gone to a hospital at three o'clock on that same day that you wrote to me. Sir Robert Phllhay was there. I'd brought him down from Scot land by easy stages. Just got him there In comfortable time. He's old, you seo, and not too strong." "Phllhay, the bone-setter?" "Yes. He bad a look at Mark and said he thought he could do some thing. So Mark was put under an anaesthctlo there and then and Sir Robert rearranged most ot his splno." "Mark Mark didn't tell me there was any question ot such a thing I" "In throe months bo'll be allowed to move, Barbara. And Sir Robert save that within the year. If all goes well, he'll be walking without a crutch; at most with a slight limp." The sound ot the Incoming tide crept between them. "Come, let's walk back to the car. We cant stay here; It's getting late and cold." Hs came nearer, standing be tween her and the freshening wind. "Did you say" she spoke care fully, as though repeating a mes sage "that on the day after Mark gave that party, he wont Into a hos pital, at about three o'clock In the afternoon, and and was cured of his lameness T' Copyright. 11)1.
