Chapter 21 THE CABLEGRAM GEORGIE vent ' home with a (trail feeling of excitement. It almost leemed at It the closed doors of Lite, as other people knew It, bad slowly began to open and let her through. She sighed and let herself Into the house. It was Ave o'clock and there was a smell of burning tout In the house; why was It that Mrs. Drill could never make toast with out burning It, Georgia wondered Impatiently, and she thought rather wistfully of the wonderful lunch he had had; tea would probably hare been Just as good It they bad had It In the same restaurant. Mrs. Drill came out o; the kitchen. "Tour uncle's been hollerln' all ever the place for yon," ahe said. "Where la her" Oeorgie asked. "Gone out, but there's a telegram on the dining-room table, and he Mil I was to tell you to read It" Oeorgie went Into the dlnlng room; the telegram lay on the tray Reside an empty tumbler, and ahe took It np with a vagua feeling of distaste. Whoever could be sending a tele gram T She could not remember ever haying seen one In the house be fore. This was on different paper to the usual ones too; she looked at the printed heading curiously. It was a cable, brief but to the point "Arriving Friday the twenty-sec ond. Evelyn." Oeorgie alwaya thought It seemed funny her mother should Invariably sign herself by her christian name and not "Mother." raaay tne twenty-second was next Friday; funny they should have troubled to cable her at all. She was et such little Importance In the life of this woman who would sign her- (elf Evelyn. Mrs. Drill spoke from the door way. "No bad sews, I hoper She was all Inqnlsltlveness. t "No, only that my mother Is com ing home," Oeorgie said. "That will be nice." Mrs. Drill said a trifle disappointedly; to her way of thinking telegrams only meant one thing, and that was bad news. She waited a moment and then went back to the kitchen to finish burning the toast. IHun Eawara Bancroft came vi home later in the evening, he oould talk of nothing else but tbe cablegram; he seemed to consider It aa a personal Insult. "Wasting money the kind of thing an empty headed woman would do. Why the devil does she want you to know that she arrlvea on Friday the twenty-secondT She's not coming to aee you, I'll bet a nrer." 1 think It was kind of her," Oeorgi said. , "Kind!" Edward Bancroft roared Ilk a bulL "She doesn't know the meaning of the word. Where's the whlakyr Oeorgie escaped. She went out Into the garden and looked at the noon. It waa a young moon Uke a thin sickle, and It lay on Its back, which Lovelock had alwaya de clared was a bad sign. She supposed that tho same moon shone down on Germany, where Nicholas would soon be; they would nave that In common anyway; not that he cared whether they had any thing In common or not. ' Oeorgie opened the creaking Iron gate and looked out Into the road. It waa nearly nine o'clock, and verythlng was very stllL Dp In a tree somewhere an owl called mournfully, and away In the distance a dog was barking; they were the only aounds to be heard xcept a slow footstep coming down the road. A slow, uneven footstep. I Georgia's heart missed a boat; she would know that tootatop any where; surely It she were dead and It passed over hor gravo ahe would know It She stood staring, her heart beat ing fast. Boyd came on, slowly; was he coming to the fcousef Coming to see her? She could hardly breathe. HE drew level with the gate, and stopped, looking towards the house; then after a moment be went slowly on again. Georgia could bear It no longer; she ran out Into the road. "Mr. Boyd" He stood still at once, turning to face her. She tried to think of some thing to say, but of all the hundreds of words that olamored at the door of her brain she could speak none.

"It's a lovely night," 'Georgia looked ap at the moon again. It's on Its back." ahe said, "and that's a bad sign, Isn't Itr but even as sho spoke her heart denied the words; how could anything be a bad sign when this man waa with hert "Have you been to London?" he asked. "Yes." "Have t good time?" "Tea." The silence fell again, which Oeorgie broke recklessly. Tm so glad to see you. I wanted to say how sorry I am about yes terday." Sorry for what?" For being such a fool," she said vehemently. "I don't know what made ma say all the silly things I did." Ton dldnt mean them?" he asked quietly. She shook her head. "I'm glad," he said. Tm glad to see you again too, now we can shake hands and part friends, can't ffo?" "When are you going?" "Tomorrow." "Ohl" ahe did not know the deso lation that rang through the little word, but after a moment she went on swiftly: "Can I walk down the road with you? Nobody will see us I And It It's tor the last time" "Don't yon want a hat?" "No. I hardly ever wear one." "Come along then." Qeorgle caught her breath with a quick sigh; the moon might be on Its back, but otherwise all was right with the world.
