Georgie has told m of her beautiful mother and ch stepfather in America, of her wncle with whotm she lives in Eng- land, of her dead father. whose clgarette case sha always carrics as a reminder of him and lus love for her. Chapter Seven - GIFT FROM NICHOLAS ICHOLAS finally safd, “You must have been very young when Je died.” i 1" was seven but I can remember him quite well. He'd only been dead fvyear when mother married again.” “So ‘mueh for everlasting con- stancy,” Nicholas said cynically. “4 don’t blame her,” Georgle sald quickly, “She’d been used to every- thing she wanted, and she couldn’t have it after he died. She simply had to get married again.” ! “For money?” “Yes. Evorythlng my father had he left for me.” “And so you're a young woman of wealth?” “No. I've got about fifteen hun- dred dollars a year. It doesn’t go very far.” “Whnt do you do with it?” “L spend most of it on theaters and things like that. Ilove the the- ater and the pictures. I've always wanted to go on the stage.” “Good God!” Nicholas sat up sud- denly, a heavy frown on his face. “Don’t be a little fool. It's a hell of a life.” “Is {t?” Gecrgle said wistfully. I should love to be able to make peo- ple happy. I should love to see a great big theater full of people all laughing and applauding because they liked me.” A big sailing vessel was crossing the path of woonlight that lay across the quiet bosom of the sea. A fairy ship it looked. its dark silhouette tinged with gold, its sails like wings of silver. Georgle started up—"0h, let’s go and look at the ship.” . They wert out onto the open deck and leaned on the rails. It was a warm, still night, and the great vessel seemed hardly moving as they looked down at the silent sea far below. : “And to think we've got to leave it all.” Georgte whispered. ./ She was gtanding very close be- slde him, their arms almost. touch- ing, and she said suddenly: “1 won- der if we shali ever meet again.” i He laughed. “Some day, perhaps, the world is small.” She looked up at him, her face very fair in the moonlight. “l suppose you won’'t come and see me, even if 1 give you my ad- dress?” “‘l‘ seemed a long time before he .angwerec ;. then he. said. unemo- tignally: “When you've travelled as ‘much as 1 have you will know that people you meet at sea always seem far more attractive than they do when you meet them on land. There’s an gonatural glamor.” “l know,” Georgle sald. “Nelly was saying something of the same gort this evening. You know she’s had quite a iove affair with that man 1 told you about, but she says she doesn’t suppose she'll ever see him again when they get to England. . Bhe'd been crying. I expect | shall “lery too, when we get to Southamp- ton.” . “You will? What for? You haven’t had a love affair with anyone.” Georgle turned her face away, one . hand clutching the wooden rail with frantic fingers. “But 1 shan’t see you lny. more,”. . she almost whispered. He must have heard—she knew * quite well that he must bave heard, but it was a long time before ue ; spoke. “I'm thirty-five,” he said then, very quietly. “And I'm a married man. You're twentyone, and all your life is before you. You've been kind to me—don’t spoil it all by ‘making yoarself absurdly and sent- mentally miserable even for. five minutes. | shan’t forget you. 1 be- leve I've even grown, well, fond of you in & way. But when we get to England—" he broke off. A sudden tea) splashed down onto Georgie’s erimson frock. - “I will ses him again, | wlll." she told herself passionately. ‘She moved suddenly to turn to bhim, and the old silver clgarette case she bad been holding slipped itrom her hand and fell into the dark \sea below, She gave a little ery of paln—"0h| . it's gone. , . .* “Yes, It's gone right emough,” Nicholas sala grimly. “Why you baby, you're not erying. . “l wouldn’t have lost lz m the | world . .. it was my father’s. I loved it.. ." B touched her arm—"Let’s walk along. The band has stopped and people will be coming this way.” She went with him obedlently, walking slowly to keep pace with his dragging step, brushing her hands across her wet eyes. “You're like a little girl who has E.C. v SwepnGEN~ “ #Nelly’s had a love affair.® broken her doll,” Nicholas said, teasingly. She laughed brokenly. “I'm not only crying—because ef the cigarette case.” “It only you wouldn't be so dam- nably truthful,” he said ruefully. They reached a deserted part of the long deck again and Nicholas stopped. “I'd like you to hau my case, 11 you ' will,” he said..He took it from his pocket. “It's a presentation af- falr, but 1 don’t want it. Luckily our last initials are the same. Will you have it, Robin?” “I should llove it,” Georgle sald with a sob. He put his hands on her |houlderi. turning her so that the moonlgh/ fell full on her face. “No more tears,” he sald. *You shan't see them anyway.” “But there mustn’t be any more.” “I can’t promise that.” He looked at her with a strange expression in his eyes, then he sald softly. “Goodbye my. little friend.” Georgle's lips moved, but no words came, then suddenly and be- fore he could prevent her; she stood up on tiptoe and kigsed him on the scarred side of his face. , . ., Nicholas caught his breath and his hands tightened :their. grip on her shoulders, then very deliberate- 1y he took them dway. She stood 100king up at him, trem- bling. then she said brokenly: . . “Nelly was right. You have to kiss a man—before you knov it you i, really 'ove him....” . Then she ran away from- him down the deserted deck, and Nicho- las Boyd stood logking after her, looking atter ber even when s o bad disappeared from sight. g (Copyright. 1938, Doubleday Dmn} Nelly, Monday, has a dlre premonition, | triet. “I have ney seen anything like it and the captain of the Dell- wdod said he had never experi- enckd anything of the same na- ture,” declared Mr. Hell>nthal 4 : 2 Ows' the lesser brafich of the' cur-'ASearly as 1884 the Alaska Com- |but most of the fish are caught in Tent to the Siberian coast.
