He was the very person that she wanted to avoid, but .\lu" was intensely curious about him. To the girl of twenty this man in his early thirties seemed fairly middle-aged. He was a tall and| shaggy fellow in gray tweeds that had taken on the easy lines of his body. The curt “Good morning” he gave her showed that she was only an interruption. Observing him narrowly she saw the structure of his face was vio- lent, with its jutting nose and streng chin. The glance with which he swept her was penetrating and cold under a heavy line of brow. “I wanted to tell you I'm going away today,” his voice was harsh like his personality. Nora wondered what could have attracted her father to such a man. (Copyright, 1930, Jessie Fox) Douglas Dead, alive — or married?
