Chapter IT
LOVELOCK AGAIN
WHEN Qaorgie got homo ah went
straight to the kitchen to tell
Mr. Lovelock the result ot her trip
to London. But the kitchen was
deserted, and dark tare lor the red
glow of a well-banked-up Ire.
"I wonder If any house In ,the
world la as lonely as ours I Georgia
alghed as she turned away and went
np to her r. om.
She felt depressed; It seemed so
useless hating adventures It there
was nobody to whom one could re
late them; she threw her hat down
on the bed, and at the same moment
she heard her name called by Mrs.
Lovelock from across the landing.
Something was the matterl The
girl's heart missed a beat ae she ran
to obey that call which had sounded
somehow weak and pathetic
1 thought you must be oat,'
Oeorgle said breathlessly, and then
"Oh, are yon 1117"
Mrs. Lovelock lay flat on her baok,
till wearing the faded cotton frock
of the early morning, and her face
was drawn and pinched with pain.
"It's here," she gasped, her hand
on her side.
"I'll get some brandy," Oeorgle
said. She flew down the stairs and
brought a tumbler from the kitchen.
She raoed np the stairs again, spill
ing the brandy as she wenL Then
she slipped ao arm beneath Mrs,
Lovelock's head and made her swal
low a few drops.
"How long have joa had the
. pamr she asked.
A wry jtnsU oroseed the white;
face.
"How longf Before yo went
away."
"Have yoa been alone all after
noon 1" Oeorgle asked.
"Yes. Who d'you rhlnk would be
here?"
She move'1, restlessly as It In acute
pain.
"I'll get the, doctor," Oeorgle said.
. Mrs. Lovelock's thin Hps moved In
protest.
"What's the good ot a doctor!" she
asked.
"What's the good ot having a pain
when It might be oured," Oeorgle
answered praotlcally.
She went out Into the road hatlosa
and ran the short dlstanoe to the
house ot the village dootor. But .be
doctor was out and Qeorgle's heart
fell.
"But I want him," she said, as It
that remark helped matters; "Mrs,
Lovelock Is 111, and 1 want him at
once."
"The dootor Is not at home," was
all-the satisfaction she received, and
then seeing the distress In the slrl's
eyes, "Maybe you'd catch him at tho
Boar's Head."
"Oh, thank you." Oeorgle fled on
again, and gave a little sigh ot thank
fulness when she saw that his car
was still drawn up at the Inn door.
The doctor was In Mrs. Spear's
ilttlng-room; Oeorgle could hear his
voice mingled with the landlady's
loud, cheery laugu.
She burs. In upon them uncere
moniously.
HJRS. LOVELOCK'S IU," the an.
nounced.
The dootor, who possessed the
somewhat unfortunate name ot
Dudd, turned round quickly.
He knew Oeorgle well, and was
ene of the very few people In the
neighborhood who understood the
dreariness ot ber life and pitied her,
"I'll come at once," he said.
As she went out she oast a quick
look towards the staircase that
twisted away In spiral fashion to the
room above where she knew Nicho
las must be. Two people 111 In one
day! Mrs. Lovelock always said that
things happened In threes. She won.
dered who the next victim would be.
"She seems very 111," she said.
"She's got a bad pain."
"Indigestion I eipect," Dr. Dudd
aid absently; be seldom had any-
thing more serious to diagnose for
people like Mrs. Lovelock.
Doctors were not very sympa'
tbetlo she thought, or perhaps they
were so fed up with other people's
pains that they no longer eared. She
rather liked Dr. Dudd; he had a
streak ot whit hair over his fore-
nead wblcj she tounc romantic; ne
had been very kind to her too on
several occasion when her uncle
bad been more obstreperous than
usual; she gave a quick sigh ot re
lief when tbey reached the Hollies.
"I'll go straight up," Dr. Dudd said,
and Georgle lod the way.
Dr. Dudd bent over the bed, and
for a moment there was silence, then
he turned to Georgle.
"Run away for a momenL"
"I'd like to stay," the girl Insisted,
but he shook his head.
"Run away. I'll come down and tall
you all about It," he promised.
As It 1 were a child," Georgle
thought reoentfully, but she obeyed
and went down to her uncle' li
brary, and poked the dying Ore Into
a blaze.
All the snort way home she had
tried to screw up ber courage to ask
tbe doctor how Nicholas was, but
somehow It had been difficult to
speak bis name; perhaps when he
came downstairs she would have
more pluck. She heard his footsteps
and went out Into the ball to meet
him.
"Is It lndlgostlont" she asked, and
wondered why he seemed to avoid
looking at her.
I'm goln to take her along to
tbe hospital," he said.
"Hospital?" Georgle' eyes grew
wide with alarm.
"She'll get proper attention there,'
be promised her. "And she can not
be nursed here. I'll call In on my way
back and they'll send the ambulance."
"Ambulance!" Oeorgle gasped.
For Indigestion?"
"I'm afraid It's something a little
more serious than Indigestion," Dr.
Dndd said. "But you need not worry;
she'l! be all right"
GBOROM, felt a If tbe ground was
slipping from beneath her feeL
Lovelock seriously 1111 What was she
to do without her?
"Don't look so alarmed," tbe doo
tor said again smiling a little: be
laid a hand on ber shoulder, "Where
Is your uncle?" he asked.
"At the Boar' Head, 1 think."
They looked at one another tor a
moment, then the doctor said. "Why
didn't you stay In America, Oeor
gle?"
She shook her head dumbly.
"Tbls Is not the place for you," he
told her.
Why did everyone say that?
Oeorgle wondered.
It's the only place I've got," she
answered.
Well, well" be patted ber
shoulder and turned away. "I'll call
In and tell your uncle," he said.
"He won't care," she answered
dispiritedly! she followed him to the
door.
"Is Mr. Boyd very 111 J" she ven
tured when he was well outside m
the dark garden.
"Boyd? Boyd? Oh, no he's not vary
11L Trouble with bis log, that's all.
Well, I'll be getting along."
She stood looking after him till
he had driven away and the night
was all quiet again, then she went
slowly upstairs to Mrs. Lovelock.
"They're going to take you to the
hospital," she said gently. Mrs.
Lovelock did not speak or move, and
touched with some Impulse which
she could not explain Oeorgle took
the woman's work-roughened hand
In bers. "Is the pain very bad?"
she asked, and was horrified to see
slow tears crooning from .beneath
the closed lids.
Lovelock crying! Uoorgle's own
eyes wore suddenly wot
And tor the next hour life wa
like a bad dream; the ambulance
which she bad hitherto only con
nected with road accidents, stand
ing at the gate, and two strange
men carrying Lovelock away on a
strotcher,
"It cant be true," Oeorgle ioM
hersolf as she went back Into the
empty house and closed the door.
She went to th kitchen becao
It seemed the most cheery spot rnd
knelt down by the fire, shivering a
little.
She knew that her uncle would
be furloua; he hated anything that
disturbed the selfish routine ot his
life; he would rave and what Mrs.
Lovelock always called "carry on."
Nelly wouldn't be able to oome
down for the week-end now; every
thing would be different disor
ganised. Oeorgle drew np the high-backed
obalr with the rod cushion In which
Mrs. Lovelock always sat and olosed
her eyes. The silence and the
warmth ot the Are on her face were
soothing; proeently sbe slepL
She was awakened by tbe crash
ing of the front door; a crash that
seemed to shake the house and
which sent her to her teot still halt
asloep and trembling In every limb.
