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been replaced by very fair paving.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. J Jan. 80 (AP)
Frank Carnora, confessed "torch
layer," waived extradition today and
waa taken to Rockland county, New
York, to face trial for the killing ot
bU wife, Lena, 57.
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'
