I should have thought it would have been the first thing he would have said, but perhaps he don’t like to, him a gentleman born anyway as you might say.” “What are you talking about?” Georgie asked impatiently. “He told me he was going to sell the house if he could, and that he was going to live at the Boar’s Head. But if there’s anything else—" “Live at the Boar’s Head is right enough,” Mrs. Drill said with deep satisfaction. “Of course he's going to live at the Boar’s Head seeing that he’s going to marry Mrs. Spears.” “Marry Mrs. Spears!” Georgie laughed. “I don’t believe you,” she said firmly. “I can’t believe you,” she amended her words. “Why, Mrs. Spears doesn't even like Uncle Ed- ward.” “Ab, that’s pect,” Mrs, “But she don't tell everything to you or to anyone else. She’s one of the deep ones. She’s going to marry him alright, and a fine step up it is for her, They're going to be married next week in London. Everyone in the village knows about it, Miss Georgie. Most of ’em think that your Ma knew, too, seeing that she took you away all in a hurry like. I couldn’t believe my ears when I heard that you'd come home again.” Come home! Georgie laughed, wondering if there was anyone in the world more homeless than she. what she told you I ex- -ATER on in the evening; having first made sure that her uncle was asleep in his study, Georgie walked down to the Boar’s Head. The village seemed silent and de- serted, but as she walked she seemed to hear a slow, limping footstep be- hind her, and once she turned her head quickly, almost expecting to see. Nicholas Boyd’s tall figure out- lined against the dark sky. It only—it only! She hurried on, trying vainly tooutstrip the longing which she knew must go with her torthe end of her life. It seemed hard that she must be one of the faithtul port, she thought wistfully; other girls whom she had known in Lon- don laughed and talked about the pumbaer of their love affairs as it it wag quite natural to have half a dozen, The Boar’s Head was gay with| light; jand the sound of the radio. Georgle loved music, but tonight even the cheery lilt of a jazz tune deepenmed the ache in her heart. Georgie pushed open the glass panelled door which was proudly marked “Hotel Entrance” and came face to face With Mrs, Spears. For a moment they looked at one another silently, then Mrs. Spears sdid shelplessly: “Well, I never. Come, right in. I was just thinking aboutyou.” “] anly came back this afternoon,” Geor’e said. “So I hear.” Mrs. Spears looked a 1ittle nervous, which must have been an umusual experience for.her, as she led the way to her own private room. “Take a seat,” she sald affably. “And tell me all the things you've teer Boing in London.” : “There isn’t much to tell,” Geor- gle sald. “And I came to say—to ask—" she floundered helplessly. n RS.

He'll be alright with me.” “I know he will,” Georgie sald gratefully, and she was conscious of a little warm Yeeling round her heart a# she realized that though life might be unkind, in this womun she had at last found a friend.
