UNCLE EDWARD
IN a moment Georgia wai vide
awake, realizing that It was mere
ly ber uncle coming borne from the
Boar's Head. Sbe passed a trembling
band over her roughened hair and
vent out Into the hall to meet him.
Edward Bancroft itood at the foot
of the stain, bis face Hushed and bis
hat on the floor at his feet; he stared
at Georgia for a moment In silence.
then be burst out:
"What's all this nonsense?
Where's Lovelock?"
Oeorgle's Up trembled. "Dr. Dudd
sent her to the hospital; she's 111.'
"till" he swayed a little. "1111 Rot
and rubbish," he stormed as Georgia
bad known he would. "Over eaten.
that's what's the matter with ber.
Look at met Do I ever make a pig
of myself?"
"Not with food," Georgia said.
He swayed a litis closer to ber.
"What d'you mean by that?" be
demanded thickly. "Yon mean that
I drink, I suppose, do yon? A nice
thing when a man's own whipper-
snapper of a niece tells him he's
drunk."
"I didn't say yoa were drunk,"
Georgle said. She was very near
tears; the events of the day bad
shattered her nerves. "But all tbo
same I think yqn've bad enough e-d
you ought to go to bed."
"Had enough, have I?" he roared
"And who gave yon permission to
tell ma when I'd had enough? Go to
bed and mind your own business."
"I'm going," Georgia said, thank
ful to be dismissed so easily, but
when she would have passed him to
mount the stairs, be caught her by
the arm, swinging her roughly round
to him again,
"Lovelock's gone, has she? Well
you can go too, and good riddance.
I'm sick of white-faced, nseloss fe
males about the bouse. What good
are you, anyway, I should like to
know; standing there staring at me
with your moon-etruck eyes. Just
-like your 'mother; the same self
ish .. ."
Georgia suddenly regained her
courage.
"You can leave my mother out of
the question," sbe said with spirit.
"And as for staying here, do you
think I want to stay It I'd sot any
where else to go?" she broke off
with a little cry of alarm. "Oh, you're
not going to hit me?"
"Hit you." He kept his rough hold
of her for a moment staring at ber
with bis blood-shot eyes, then sud
denly he pushed her from him with
all bis strength, so unexpectedly that
her light body was flung bsck be
fore she could make any attempt to
recover herself. Sbe bait swung
round In a desperate attempt to
catcb at something to save herself
from falling and ber bead came Into
violent contact with the heavy oak
balusters.
"That'll teach yoa, perhaps, my
lady," Edward Bancroft muttered,
and with a grim laugh ot satisfac
tion be slunk oft unsteadily to bis
library leaving Georgle where she
had fallen.
NICHOLAS BOYD came slowly
down the winding old staircase
et the Boar's Head and, orosslng the
deserted lounge, looked out at the
sunshine.
Dr. Dudi' bad advised him to He
up tor a day or two longer, but Nich
olas was not a man to take advice,
0 this morning he had dressed and
had been tempted by the bright sun
shine to venture out,
Nicholas walked slowly down the
road, his thoughts many miles away,
tor only that morning he bad re
ceived a letter from his wife, char
acteristically flippant and selfish. In
forming hi t that she bad at last got
the opportunity she had long desired
and that those who were in a posi
tion to know, were assured that she
was well on ber way to heoomlng a
great star.
"I am to play opposite Roy Fran
els In a story called 'Moonlight.' It
seems funny, doesn't It, that you
and I should suddenly have changed
places In the world. I wonder what
yon are doing? Isn't It rather silly
to bury yourselt as yon have done?
it any rate I am sure that now yon
will see bow wise I was not to have
.j with you. It 1 bad, 1 should
nave missed this chance, but as It
Is, tbe dream of my life fcss come
true."
"Tbe dream of my life has come
true"
Sbe had said almost those same
words to him when they were first
married when she was basking In
tbe reflected sunshine of his glory,
when sbe was someone because of
btm.
He wondered If be envied ber or
If tbe noise and artificial glamor ot
the life from which be was cut off
bad ceased to mean anything to
him.
In those days tbere had always
been anxiety, striving, fear leBt yet
auother star should fall Into ob
scurity, whereas now be knew tbe
worst, tbere was nothing any longer
tc hope tor, or dread I
It was so peaceful bare In tbe
heart of England; tbe trees and
fields and hedgerows were like
faces of half-lorgotten friends which
one recognizes with quiet g'.sdness
to And tbem singularly unchanged.
Nicholas had no thought tor the
future; be was like a ship-wrecked
vessel that has been washed Into
calm waters and Is glad to rest
awhile. He found himself suddenly
by the gate whore Georgle had
loaned and wept tbe morning after
tbey both came borne.
Funny little soull A half smile
crossed his face as he thought of
her, and ot tbe Innocent way In
which she bad tried to force her
friendship pon him.
ONLY last night Dr. Dudd bad
spoken to blm half apologetical
ly, of a German doctor who could
work miracles on battered faces like
his own; yes, Dudd bad been very
apologetic, tearing no doubt to touch
with an ungentle hand the thing
which was responsible for bis pres
ence in this sleepy village. It was
another surprise that he should not
In the least have resented It,
"In these days of marvelous sur
gery," Dudd had said. "I know ot
two apeclflo cases myself absolute
ly satisfactory"
No doubt In Dudd's eyes he was
as ugly as that other almost forgot
ten world bad found blm, as prob
ably everybody had found him. -
"Except Georgle," the thought
came unbidden Into bis mind. Sbe
had not sbrujk from him; her steady
eyes bad rested on bis face with
sweet, whole-hearted friendship.
seeing nothing ot Its disfiguration.
But she was only a child; a child
to be pitied If Dudd and Mrs. Spears
were to be believed. Nicholas bad
seen Edward Bancroft, and bad felt
a sort of contemptuous pity for blm.
He bad met many men of the same
type bofore, and It was only when
one thought of blm In relation to
Georglo that tbe contemptuous pity
was toucbod with something harder
and difficult to explain.
Possibly Edward Bancroft seemed
less repulsive and Impossible to
Georgle than be did to tbe rest o"
tbe world, Nicholas thought, and
hoped that It was so. She was young
and some day she would marry.
Funny to think ot that child being
married; he rememberod ber quaint
ly outspoken words to blm on ths
boat about some man who had asked
her to dance. "I bated the way he
looked at me, and so 1 wouldn't."
Yes, she was Just a child with an
Innate sense of purity and the fit
ness of things; he hoped when ths
right man came along be would be
a decent follow and bring ber the
happiness sbe had so tar tailed to
And.
Poor little kid I Nicholas Boyd
turned and walked slowly back. He
wondorod what sort of a house tbey
shared togother, this Ill-assorted
pair, and with suddenly aroused
curiosity he stopped a farm lad who
was coming whistling down the road
and asked where be could And the
Hollies. Georgle had descrlbod tbe
house to him.
Old," she had called It, "and
rather dingy." Hardly a fitting; set
ting for anyone so llghthearted and
charming.
Tbe lad pointed up the road with
a brown Anger.
First on the left; stands back be
hind a 'oily 'edge."
Nicholas took the road Indicated.
Yes, Oeorgle's description had
been correct;' "old and rather
dingy."
And then a sudden Impulse came
to Nicholas Boyd. He would call and
see her. He had thrown ber roses
Into the sea perhaps the only roses
he should hare kept were those he
had so ungraciously discarded..
He pushed open the gate and
walked np to the front door.
