Ine AN INMATE SYNOPSIS: Georgie Bancvoft, yeturning from a visit to her mother and wealthy stepfather n New York, finds Nicholas Boyd, her girliiood movie hero aboard the England-hound ship. Two months Velore Boyd hnd been at the top o/ the movie world. But n heroio rescue has left him with a maimed face, a limp, and no contract, Bernie Boyd. his wife. has remaincd o New Vork, unable to face ob- scurity with Nicholas tn his natire England. Georgie has forced Nich- olas to talk to her at every oppor- tuniry. Now she has searched through the lupnage to find the ad- dress on Nickolas' trunk—and it reads only “London.” Chapter Nine | “THAT'S THAT. 'T seemed tc¢ Georgie, therefore, that the chances of finding Nich- olas Boyd would be small, even sup- posing she set about trying fo tind him, and Georgie seldom 'went to London. Her uncle bated it, possi- bly because he had spent all his wild | rackety youth there and most of his | money. He seldom moved out of the vil- lage where they lived now, unless it was to see his lawyer about his will. He often sa 7 his lawyer with regard to his will, because Georgie knew he changed his mind about it once a month on the average. Once he had informed her that Mrs. Lovelock was to have every penny, but that was when he had been very drunk. As a rule he hated Mrs. Lovelock and was always tell- ing Georgie that he meant to =ack her, only when it came to the point he could never find the pluck. Yes, people were funny; even Nicholas Boyd was afraid of some- thing, and that was why he would not tell ner where he was going, and why he would not say he would see her again. He was afraid of life; Georgie realized it with sudden 1p- finite pity; now dreadful for a big man like he was to be afraid of life, Just because his face was scarred, and he wis po longer so handsome as the world bad known him. Georgie went up on deck and looked at he sea. It was cold and grey and angry; the spray lashed her face and the wind blew her hair into disorder. Soon the would be able to see the “white cliffs of old England” as peo- ple poetically called it. Georgie was conscious of a thrill. She had been happy in America, but she was glad to be going home. Her mother had sald that she never wanted to see England again, but then her mother was such : shocking sailor, and never got out of her cabin from the time the ship left one port until it arrived at auacther, She had talked to Georgle serious- ly about ge ing married. “Doesn’t your uncle take you about xnd see that you meet eligible men?” she enquired. Georgie had giggled at the thouglt. Her uncle uever took her about anywhere, and she was glad of it, because onec never knew what sort of condition he would be in trom one hour to the next. “Fuddled again!” was Mrs. Love- lock’s way of expressing it. “It's & marvel to me how he lives.” Georgle wandered down below again and unce more leaned her .J bows on the top of Boyd's big trunk, staring down at its untriendly label. Why couldn’t he have said to her: “I'm going to London—let's travel up together.” EORGIE had to go to London and cross it, in order to get down to her uncle’s. There would be nobody to meet her, she knew, and for the first time it struck her that she -sould feel a little lonely, arriving at Southampton docks BytheWorld FORGOT A New Serial by Ruby M. Ayrcs | opposite one another in a crowded pcorner with a sigh, He frowned a little as he lookcd at her. “Well, you go first,” he sald. “My business will take some time.” It was a definit§ dismissal, and without giving her a chance to re ply he turned on his heel and left her. “And th.t's that,” Georgie told herself philosophically. “But of corse he'll come and say goodbye to me,” 8o she comforted herself, but she was wrong, for al- though she lpoked everywhere for Nicholas for th» rest of the duy, and again the following morning she ¢'d not see him, And how it rained at Southamyp- ton! Georgie shivered in spite of her big tweed coat as she stood waiting to go on shore; pushed here and there by excited peonle, deatened by the noise and clamor all around. “Anyone meeting you?” Nelly | asked her, and Georgie shook her | head. “Are you going up to London alone?” she asked. “Yes,” there was a bitter note In Nelly’s voice. “My lot went off di- rectly we got in. He said he had ‘friends’ to meet him, but I saw her —about a. unlike me as you can imagine anything.” d “We'll t.avel up together,” Geor- gle said kindiy. “I'm going third clags,” Nelly told her. “So am L” And presently they were sitting compartment. Georgie hung out of the window with a fine disregard for the feelings of her fellow-travel lers, but there was no sign ot Nicho- las Boyd, and for the first time she was conscious of.a little feeling of anger inst him, “Stupid! ‘stupid!” him in ber heart. As if it could make the least dif- ference! \s if people could turn Fate away from the path in which it was destined to go. The train moved slowly out of the station, and Georgie sat down in her she accused HE little country town seemed as If it had gone to sleep and had torgotten to wake up, Georgie thought as she drove up from the station in one of the antidiluvian cabs which optimistically stood 2l day behind each other on the station rank. She felt a little solitary and sad. For one thing it was twilight, the | saddest hour of a summer’s day, and for another she had begun to realize for the first time that she was a lit- tle lonely. Surely no other girls of her age | were quite so lonely? ‘The old horse clopped along the | dusty road, and the windows of the old cab rattlea. Georgie sat stiffly erect on the edge of the hard seat, her bands clasped in her lap, ber eyes staring .before her at the re memberea scene, She bad cnly been away for six | weeks. It seemed now like six years, or as if she bad bad a long sleep and had only dreamed about New York and the skyscrapers, and | the noisy streets, and the modern luxury of her mother’s apartment. She was a Cinderella, back from the ball, shorn of her short-lived splendor, princeless! The striped blinds of the vicarage were closely drawn over the win- dows to keep out the last rays of the setting sun; Trouvé, the old collie who belonged to Mrs. Spears at the alone. In New York she bad been met by her mother and her step-father, and a big llmousine; and she felt guite dmportant with a lverfed man to carry her modest luggage. At South- ampton, 20 doubt, she would have .to fight for a porter—porters did not jeare very much for unattached, in- significant girls. “Are you H1?” a voice asked, and 'she turnec with a start to find Nich- olas Boyd beside her. “Il1? no, why- Do I look fll'l" she asked helplessly. “You were leaning over my crnnk in rather a suspicious fashion” he answered. Georgle laughed. | “I've been looking for you,” she said candidly. “lI suppose you baven't been on deck.” “No» “It's quite nice up there,” she sald ‘bopefully. Boyd 3hrugged his shoulders. “Is it? I'm just going along to the purser’s office.” “l want to see the purser t0o,” Georgle sail. Boar's Head, lay asleep on the path, and did not even open ap eye or move as the cab lumbered by. Georgie liked Trouvé: she liked his name which Mrs. Spears, who fancied herself as somethiog of a French scholar, had bestowed upon him because ehe had found him as a starving puppy, with a tin can tied to his woe-begone tail. Mrs. Spears loved dogs; she al- ways had various assorted breeds hanging about the Boar’s Head. “It's all she does love, then,” Mrs. Lovelock declared with & sniff. Mrs. Loveiock invariably alluded to the worthy landlady as “One of those painted ones.” Mr. Scarlét’s old cab lumbered past the tiny village green, past the little row of thatched cottages which. were supposed to be many bundreds of years old, and sharply round to a lane where, beliind a high holly hedge, stood her unele’s little house, hiding its {vy-clad wallg from the gaze of passers by.
