But in the stillness of these English woods Barbara felt she could not continue that sert of thing now she 1 Ray.

Down the grassy bank it plunged, | tossing its head and quivering its| cagerness as it gathered forces for the spring. A moment—and it was over—but in making the oppo- site bank its hoofs slipped in the mud and it fell, bringing Barbara to the ground. At first she appeared unhurt by the fall, but when she tried to rise, she discovered that she had twisted bher ankle. She tried to laugh about it, assuring the man that it was of no consequence. Henderson picked her up in his arms and set her on her horse. “Sure it doesn't hurt too much?” said the man solicitously. “Bure,” she assured him. But, of course, it did hurt. It felt as though red hot pokers were being jabbed continuously into her ankle and she found herself longing for Ray. She wanted Ray to fuss over her,| nything I can do for you myself?” | Her answer was short and muf- | fled. “Nothing, thanks.” “Will you be able to come down to dinner tonight, Barbara?"

Seating herself at the vanity table she muttered under her breath, | s it Ray she made a feeble effort to change | to.pet her and to tell her how in- ordinarily brave she was being. She kept urging her horse on, im- patient to be back. In her mind's eye she could see Ray rushing for- ward to take her down off her horse after which he would carry her up the wide staircase and into their bedroom. The grooms were waiting to meet them. But nowhere could she see Ray and it was Henderson finally who carried her into the hall. “Is Mr. Lowther upstairs?” she} asked the butler. The man raised his eyebrows. ‘ #No, ma'am. He caught the four @'clock train to London.” And then, in.reply to Henderson's startled ex- elamation. “He sald it was urgent business, sir.

Strange that she started the cele- bration by suddenly leaning for- ward, her head in her arms, and bursting into tears.
