But the kitchen was deserted, and dark save for the red glow of a well-banked-up fire. ! “Iwonder it any house In the wor}d 1s as loqelg as ours? Georgle ulghed as she turned away and went, ‘up to her 1. qm. She felt depressed; it seemed so useless having adventures if there was nobody to whom onme could re- late them; she threw her hat down on the bed, and at the same moment she heard her name called by Mrs. Lovelock from across the landing. Something was the matter! The girl's heart missed a beat as she ran to obey that cail which had sounded somehow weak and pathetic. “l thought you must be out,” Georgie said breathlessly, and then, “Oh, are you il1?” Mrs. Lovelock lay flat on her back still wearing the faded cotton frock of the early morning, and her face was drawn and pinched with pain. “It’s here,” she gasped, her bhand on her side. “I'll get some brandy,” said. She flew down the stairs and brought a tumbler from the kitchen She raced up the stairs again, spill- ng the brandy as she went. Then she slipped ar arm beneath Mrs. Lovelock’s heac and made her swal- low a few drops. “How loug have you had the pain?” she asked. A wry .mile crossed the white face. “How away.” “Have you been alone all after- noon?” Georgie asked. “Yes. Who d'you think would be here?” . She move ! restlessly as if in acute pain, “I'll get the doctor,” Georgie gaid. Mrs. Lovelock's thin Jips mov(s in protest. “What's the good of a doctor?” she asked. “What's the good ot having a pain when it might be cured,” Georgie answered practically. She went out into the road hatless fand ran the short distance to the {house of tre village doctor. But .he , octor was out and Georgle’s heart Tell. “Bat | want him,” she said, as 1f that remark helped matters; “Mrs. Lovelock 1s #l, and I want him at long? Before you went “The doctor is not at home,” was all the satisfaction she received, and then seeing the distress fn the girl's yes, “Maybe you'd catch him at the Boar’s Head.” “Oh, thank you.” Georgie fled on {again, and zave a little sigh of thank- fulness When she saw that his car ‘was still drawn up at the Inn door. The doctor was in Mrs. Spelr’l sitting-room; Georgie coilld hear his voice mingled with the lan ady’s Joud, cheery laugh. " She burs: iz upon them upcere- monloualy. RS. LOVELOCK'S il1,” she an- "nounced. The doctor, who possessed the somewhat unfortunate name of Dudd. turned round quickly. He knew Georgle well, and was .o ® of the yery feW peqple in the elghborhood who understood the| o :rearlneu of her life and pitied her, " “Pll come at once” he gaid.” "/, ' As she went out she cast a quick Jook ‘towards the staircase that ‘twisted away In spiral fashion'tothe | aown for the w room above Where she knew Nicho- las must be. Two people il in one 'day! Mrs. Lovelock always said that :$hings happened in threes, She won- ered who the next victim would be. ! “She seems very ill,” she sald.| por eyeg, “She’s got a bad pain.” “Indigestion I expect,” Dr. Dudd gaid abgently; be seldom had any- more serious to diagnose for | 4, peaple like Mrs. Lovelock. Doctors were not very sympa- thetic she thought, or perhaps they were 8o fed up with other people’s { that they no longer cared. She u i;umrp.nnu he had a Georgle | head whica she founé romantic; ke had been very kind to ber too on several occasions when her uncle had been more obstreperous than usual; she gave a quick sigh ot re- lief when they reached the Hollies. “I'll go straight up,” Dr. Dudd said, and Georgie led the way. Dr. Dudd bent over the bed, and for a moment there was silence, then he turned to Georgie. “Run away for a moment.” “I'd like to stay,” the girl insisted, but he shook his head. “Run away. I'll cpme down and tell you all about it,” he promised. “As if 1 were a child,” Georgie thought resentfully, but she obeyed and went down to her uncle's If brary, and poked the dying fire into a blaze. All the snort way home she had tried to screw up her courage to ask | the dogtyr how Nicholas wyas, but somehow it had been @ifficult to npeak his name; perhaps when he came downstairs she would have ' more pluck. She heard his footsteps | and went qut into the hall to meet | him. “Is it indigestion?” she asked, and wondered why he seemed to avoid looking at her. “I'm goin. to take her along to the hospital,” he said. “Hospital?" Georgie's eyes grew wide with alarm. “‘She’ll get proper attention there,” he promised her. “And she can not be nursed here. 'll call in on my way back lance.” Ambulance!” Georgie gasped. r indigestion?” “I'm afraid it's something a little more serious than indigestion,” Dr. Dudd said. “But you need not worry; she’ll be all right.” EORGIL felt as if the ground was slipping from beneath her feet. Lovelock seriously fll! What was she to do without her? “Don’t look so alarmed,” the doe- tor said agaic smiling a little: laid a hand oun her shoulder. “Where is your uncle?” he asked. “At the Boar's Head, I think.” They looked at one another for a moment, then the doctor said. *Why didn’t you stay in America, Geor- gie?" She shook her head dumbly. “This is not the place for you,” told her. Why dia everyone say that?| Georgie wondered. “It's the only place I've got,” she apswered. " “Well, well—" he patted her | shoulder and turned away. “I'll call in and tell your uncle,” he said. "}la won't care,” she answeretl | dispiritedly, she followed him to the | door. “Is Mr. Boyd very {ll?” she ven- he tured when he was well outside in | the dark garden. “Boyd? Buyd? Oh, no he's not very , . Trouble with bis leg, that's all. | Well, I'll be getting along.” Shie stood looking after him till be bad driven away and the night was all quiet again, then she went slowly upstairs to Mrs. Lovelock. “They're golng to take you to the hospital,” she said gently. Mrs, Lovelock did not speak or move, and tcuched with some impulse which | she could uot explain Georgie took the woman's work-roughened band | in hers. “Is the pain very bad?” she asked, and was horrified to fep l!ow “tears creeping from beneath | the closed lds. . “Lovelock crying! Georgle's own eyes were suddenly wet. Angd for the mext hour life was a bad dream; the ambulance which she had hitherto only ¢on. negted with road accidents, stang- ln. ‘at the gate, and two strange | m n carrying Lovelock away on a | stretcher. “It can’t be true,” Georgie told | herself as she went back into the empty house and closed the door. She went to the kitchen because | it seemed the most cheery spot rnd | knelt down by the fire, shivering a little.
