Chapter It
DISAGREEMENT
'CURB, 1 Ilka It, tut what are 700
doing down hrr Wlllett an-
wared. "Fox with you or eome
thing?"
!"No," Allaire Bald, forcing a amile.
"George isn't here."
PToa didn't come down alone?"
?AU alone, Terry."
"I don't get It. What made you
pick thia Jumplng-off place (or a
alght-aeelng trip?"
"It Isn't a sightseeing trip." Her
Tolce wai low. "I came down be
eauae I I wanted to be with you,
and I waa afraid you might not
coma back for a long time, if ever,
and. Terry, life didn't aeem to mean
thing without you"
There It waa, a girl mowing her
heart That aame girl whom George
Fox bad once seen gently probe the
pllntered leg of a beautiful quiver
lng thoroughbred and algh aa It a
loved child were dying. A girl put
ting all her chlpi on the turn of a
wheel.
Terry could only look at her. In
itiative and action those qualities
had always been hers and he'd loved
them In her. And she'd followed him
down here?
This girl of private cars, and
atone mansions, and silver evening
gowns; this girl In a town like Pro
plonoira. It waa Impossible. She
didn't know what abe was getting
Into.
Even as he recognised those qual
ities of initiative and action, eome
thing warned him something whis
pered aomething eat on hia shoul
der and yelled lc bla ear -stay hard,
the soft stumble. Stay hard, no
good can come of tbls to either.
"Don you mean to tell me?"
He atopped. Why talk about It?
But the girl wasn't afraid.
"That I'm In love with you, Terry.
I've always been, I guess, but I
well, I hat, ao much to learn."
"You're not In love with me," aald
Willott.
"Terry I"
"You'ro in love with George Fo,"
he repeated. It wae almost an order.
"You've had a row, maybe." ;
"Terry, I haven't bad a row with;
anybody but myaelf. I haven't come
to you on the rebound. 1 came be
eauae 1 knew you wouldn't come to
me and we shouldn't be kept apart
And nothing will If you love me"
Obviously, he waa expected to an
wer. There was a audden uncertain,
apprehensive note In her voice. Did
that hard brown figure love her, that
fighter and builder and descendant
of the Cavaliers? Ob, why didn't he
aay so?
Wlllett turned suddenly and went
over to the window. There ware little
beada of sweat upon hla brow.
Ha could see tbe streets of Pro
plonolre, smell the stale seatoam and
coffee beana. There was a man sitting
on the curb across the street He waa
a cripple and a beggar and there
were lots like him In thla town. What
a place tor Allaire West wben Fox
could offer the Court of St Jamesl
A million miles between ber world
and bis and did she think she could
cover It by mechanical distance? Or
by love? Women can't etand some
things; they have to be prepared.
And she had no preparation for thla
life, and It wasn't fair to her.
Besides, and his mouth grew grim,
there was nothing el. her could offer
the other. Love? Sure, fever cared
about love, didn't It? Love had aaved
his mother when she followed Law
rence Wlllett hadn't It?
Love! For heaven'asake, what was
It? She had to go back, It waa only
right and sensible and decent and
some day she'd thank him. .
lyOMEN have to be prepared for
some things. He hoped his si
lence and hla back would prepare
- her. He took a long deep breath and
tried to make his voice sleady.
8lay hard, yon toot or you'll both
stumble. Slay bard; yon have a Job
to do and nothing on heaven or earth
ia going to atop you.
"You've got to go back, Allaire.
Take a room here for the night and
tomorrow I'll put you on the north
bound steamer. Thla Is no place for
you."

! He awung around ..lowly. Her eyes
I swept eagerly over bla face. It waa
set like stone, even though his bands
clenched behind bis back. She knew
the answer to ber question was
there, that It waa uselesa to ask, yet
sbe had to anyhow.
"Don't you love me, Terry?" aba
said quietly.
"Have 1 ever done anything to
make you think I did? Allaire, yon
don't love me "
"Stop telling me what 1 do or
don't" she said spiritedly, "Answer
me."
"I try to keep my path clear of
women," said Terry tensely. "They
get In the way. They ahould stay
out of a man'a way wben be baa
work to do."
She stared at blm, white to the
lips. And because he didn't know
how long he could stand there look
ing at her without going soft as a
sponge, be turned back to tbe win
dow.
Her lips trembled. He was bard.
and somewhere along the course of
his battling life he'd lost the capaci
ty to love. Or, anyhow, he didn't love
her.
And she could crawl back to tbe
Statea defeated and ashamed and
lost tbe spirited youthful Odyssey
ended.
It was pride that came to ber aid
then, a flash of pride that wouldn't
let blm see how hurt she was. She
turned Impulsively and left the room
quickly and allently, a step ahead of
hot angry tears.
He didn't want her. He didn't love
her. And he was going on without
ber.
SUB went downstairs through the
smelly lobby and out on to the
verandah, ber reaction here the aame
aa It was everywhere else when she
waa disappointed, angry, hurt to
get out Into the air, the fresh open
air.
Hoy!" It was Corrigan's voice,
that "big lug's" partner. He wai
striding across to her from the bar.
She wished he'd go away, but Cor
rlgan wasn't wired fo,- mental telep
athy. "Where are you bound?" he In
quired. "It you're bent on wasting an
evening, I know all the best ways to
waste 'em."
"Thanks, Mr. Corrigan, but really
I'd like to be alone."
Corrigan was scrutinizing hei
thoughtfully.
"Say," he said abruptly, "you're
not that polo babe Terry met In tb
capital?"
"Polo babe" heavens, how far
away that seemed.
"I probably am," she said with a
slight smile.
Corrigan looked at her with awe,
"I've otten wondered what you were
like. Only I'd Imagined you with
wings. Let'a have a beer."
She didn't want a beer, but this
husky, enthusiastic specimen with
tbe Jaw like the front of a locomotlvi
seemed to know her. She looked al
him curiously.
"What gave you that Idea?"
"Wasn't I In Jail the same timi
Terry was? Didn't I see him stall oO
the police until you'd left town? Say,
there aren't many women Wlllett
would have done that for. In fact, I
would have bot my ahlrt then
weren't any."
"Mr. Corrigan" she said breath
lessly, "what do you mean?"
"Mean?" said Corrigan. "Why,
aren't you the girl who took a pot
shot at a Splg on the docks ons
night? Oh, don't look startled I've
seen a lot of Splgs popped off. There
ought to be a bounty."
"Why shouldn't I be startled? He
was In Jail?"
"Listen," said Corrigan, "do you
mean to say you didn't know It?"
"Know It?" She suddenly felt as
though tbe earth was shaking gent
ly. She ant down wltL widening eyes.
"Please," she begged, "tell me all
about It Mr. Corrigan. Ob, It's so
Important I didn't know, 1 didn't
dream "
80 you never know he walked Into
a pinch for you?" Corrigan rubbed
his Jaw. "Well, It he didn't tell you,
why should 1?"
"Because It's my right to know,"
she aald fiercely. "Come on, Corri
gan. spill It"
Coma on, Corrigan spill It. Ducky
grinned suddenly. She wasn't fool
lng around; shs wanted to know
something.
"8ura, It's your rlht." he agreed.
"You wondered why I thought you
had wings? Itecanae thnt man
ditched hla father and hla ob to go
to Jail lor keeping his mouth shut
With every hour worth Its weight In
gold, he stalled along until you left
and then he took twenty lashes te
square his sentence so he cou'd gel
out and get moving again."

Starting as an obacure aeaman,
Henry Morgan became a buccaneer
of fame, looting nhlps at ftea and
taking Puerto Principe and Porto
Bello at the head of a free lance
pirate army on land. He sacked Pan
ama In 1671 and for thla he was
arrested and taken to England for
trial.
Here he won the favor of the
king, waa freed of charges, knighted.
And returned to the scene of his
former pirate horrors to be lieutenant-governor
and commander - In -chief
of the king's forces In Ja
maica. He soon proved unsatisfactory
for the Job, however, and later was
dismissed from office.
All thla was crowded Into a brief
period for Morgnn rose from ob
scurity to fame and lapsed back
