Lanej Marian Gordon by JEAXXE IWH'.W.l.V H Y U f B I B: William Brown, building inspector, fuet hae been acquitted ot a charge of accepting a 110.000 bribe tor paeetng detec tive work on a new high echool building. Uartan Gordon. Horning Dlepatch reporter, return from the trial to find that her former echool friend. Silver Hondon. hae been granted a Reno divorce from Cliff Hondon and that Cliff hae that Mmeelf. Uarian ie flying, to Reno to break the neuie to Silver, accompanied bv Eetee, a Dlepatch tt'")Mi7rapher. Chapter Six DIVORCE PARTY MAJIIAN wondered bow Sllrer would take the ntiws. 8he tried to recall an; bint ot tragedy during cbool daya, and or Sllrer' reaction. Tbere bad been the time SllTBr's Imported cbow dog bad been run erer bj a truck. Sllrer bad teemed more angry at tbe drlrer tban con cerned orer tbe dog. Marian bad been the one to carry tbe whimper ing animal to ber room, summon tbe veterinarian, then accompany tbe if to tbe hospital to stand by while kit foreleg! were put Into casta. She remembered too that after the casta bad been removed and the log mored about with a grotesque Ump, Sllrer bad discarded him with t laugh. Oh well, he was happier through tbe night she relaxed, alept Ettes prodded 5w Into conscious neat at tbey topped tbe divide, t moment later, pointing out Truckxt below, and then not long after that, tbe long ttralgbt row of lights wblcb marked Reno's thoroughfare. She n'as wide awake by tbe time tbe ship bad taxied Into the vast bangar which opened Into the reception room. Henry Marks, the Dispatch corre spondent, was waiting at tbe door, and rushed tbem through without the ceremony ot a greeting. "Got to step on It." be remarked as be ushered them Into bis car. "We're taking the Galena Creek road orer ML Rose. It's a little rough and may be slick on tba top side but we couldn't make It In time by any other route. Hang on and pray." Marian understood what be meant a few moments later. Tbey bad left tbe Carson blgbway and were rac ing, It seemed, straight for tbe sky. She who had ridden lire trucks, po lice ambulances and alrplanet. gripped tbe aide ot the car and hoped tbe equipage would stay on tbe road, and she In the car. AND then she forgot ber tear. They bad topped the mountain and below, spread out like a crinkled pjece ot silver paper, lay tbe moon wasbed Lake Tahoe, rimmed with "HI you, stranger," exclaimed a Jovial votes. than be bad ever been with her. He spent serenely glorious days on tbo Cordon ranch, chasing cotton tails he could never catch, because his bop so closely resembled tbelr own. Perhaps marriage, tour yeart of living in unity witb another being, bad taught ber something, softened her. Husbanda were more Important tban pets. Yet, Marian believed one could gauge much of a person's char acter by their treatment ot animals. That made ber think of Lon and bis Hero, tbe big golden blond German shepherd who rode about wltb blm when she wasn't In the car. She must see he wasn't deprived ot hit rldea. The three ot them could ride la that wide teat. They were circling Sacramento She put ber thougbtt aside like to many cards at they landed. A mes senger was waiting for her wltb a wire. From Bowen probably. She hesitated a moment before opening It, then did and read: "Hondon holding his own. May last through night. Effect reconciliation. Bowen." Marian banded the wire to Estes, who read It wltb a queer little snort ot disgust. "He must think you're Dan Cupid's twin sister," be re marked. MARIAN smiled, but she was re lieved that her word to Silver wouldn't be one of death. She re laxed, as they took off again, and when tbe stewardess came with sandwiches, salad and coffee, found ber early evening appetite bad re turned. Refreshed, sbe leaned back, de termined to enjoy the trip. Dark blue sky sbove, a laty old moon working lit way up from the hills below and ahead of them. Tbe tar Hash ot bea cons wheeling white raya against tbe slivered tlpt of the Sierras, or punctuating the landscape wltb dots of red and blue. Somewhere down there waa her borne. Its planted acrea spread out like a tattered craty quilt with pines and redwoods for a fringe. She wondered If the family would beat the roar of the ship and remark "There goes the east bound," nevei realising sbe was In It. Lulled by the rush of tbe ship snow peaked mountains and fringed with black plnea. Swiftly tbey dencouded to the thore, rolled along the road to turn Into an Imposing grey-stone en trance and follow the drive to a large rock and log lodge, around which were smaller log buildings. Marks drew up before one of these, already hedged In wltb parked cars, and Marian aat looking at It Behind, tbe mountains reared, pine and fir covered to the snow line. Be fore It lay tbe lake. Tor one scant moment It appeared to be a-ploneer lodge on the frontier of civilisation. Bra light flickering on Ita window panes, smoke curjlng up from tbe stone chimney. And then that Illusion was dis pelled. The door burst open to emit a scurrying figure and wltb the fig ure came a blast of radio muslo and rising above this, shrieks ot laugh ter and the chant of a song. "The Battle Hymn of Freedom," remarked tbe Reno man. Marian coked u blm questioning- ly. "Mrs. Hondon Is evidently cele brating ber divorce. Are you going to need belp. or shall we stay beret" "I'd better go In alone," answered Marian, reluctantly. She left the car slowly, walked acrost the Interred Ing space between driveway and cabin, tbe door now closed, and lift ed her band to rap. This waa going to be more difficult than the had supposed. Bad enough to awaken Silver from sleep to tell her Cliff waa dying. But this celebra tion of ber freedom from blml Sbe doubled her fist and beat ber knuckles against tbe door. Tbere waa no response. Sbe tried again, then realising she couldn't be heard above the din, opened the door. She stopped Into the cabin. "Hl-you, stranger," exclaimed a lovlal voice. Marian didn't answer. Her Inter est wss centered on Silver Hondon Silver sat perched on the back of an over stuffed chair, balanced by two men who were likewise perched on the arms. Her pale yellow curls bad been pulled Into a Grecian top knot Her cheeks flamed like field pop plea. fOyil', I'll, ir ( ,-t...) tllvsr't sobs turn taught, tomorrow. out to b FREEDOM FIGHT TILLAMOOK FIRE 8ALFM.
