Nesta hos gone to the hospital, he babbling of emeralds a 8 murder, and taken him home as her hus- band, Jimmy Riddell. Caroline Leigh thinks he may be Jim Ran- dal, her distant cousin, until she hears of Nesta. Then she learns a scrap of a letter was found in the man’s pocket, signed Caroline, and suddenly her hopes rise again. She cannot understand why Nesta Rid- dell_would claim the wrong hus- band, but dashes off in pursuit . mevertheless. The nurse at the hos- \pital where the man had been gives \Caroline a paper to hand Nesta, one Nesta had dropped in leaving, Chapter Sia THE AWAKENING TDES rising and falling—waves rocking—and a long dream that rocked with them—rocking—rock- ing. He was swinging like a pendu- lum between the dream and some vague waking state—swing, swing— out and back again—out and back again. ‘When he swung oui, there was a #ense of light and women's voices; but when he swung back, there was the rise and: fall of water, and black fog, and only ore voice, that never stopped. There was sunlight in the room, TRY TO STOP WORRYIN'--, eous Fortune] Petiicia “1m JDoiN? ALL T CAN FOR YA, OL' PAL--- H + FORGET YOURE N JAIL ===~ oW's HE EELING ? UP IN WenZuiorTh else—an older woman with dark hair and a high color. She came across the room, sat down on the edge of his bed, and smiled a ready- made smile. “Well, Jimmy—so you're awake?" she said. He felt an immediate prickle of irritation. Her eyes were too close together. Who was she? And what was she doing calling him Jimmy? He loathed being called Jimmy. “Well?” said Nesta Riddell in her hard bright voice. “You look pounds better. You've slept round the clock, you know. Are you hungry? You ought to be. Min's getting you some- thing.” He said, speaking slowly and with a sort of frowning intensity, “Why did you call me Jimmy?” Nesta Riddell stared. “Isn’t it your name?” HE frown became a sheer straim ing effort to find an answer to that, And it beat him. He didn’t Inow—he didn’t know what his name was. He knew that he hated being called Jimmy. That stuck out like a corner in his mind, but he couidn’t get round it. “Look here,” said Nesta Riddell, “You wait tiM you've had something to cat. Here's another pillow for you. And if I were you I shouldn’t g¢ “Why did you c: slanting zcross the bed in which he lay. As he moved, someone else moved too. There was a soft hurry of footsteps. A blind came down with & click and the sun was shut out. His arm dropped. He rose on his elbow, and saw 4 girl turning back from the window, a very pretty girl ‘with silver flaxen hair and big pale blue eyes, She wore a blue smock, and she was looking at. him rather as a small child looks at |- a tiger in a cage. . She said “Oh!” in a soft, breath- less way and edged towards the door. He sat up, closcd his eyes for a moment, and then opened them again. The girl had almost reached the door. “I say—don’t go,” he said in an alarmed voice. The girl stood where she was, “I'll tell Nesta,” she said. ‘He repeated the name. ®Who's Nesta?” SHE looked really terrified when he said that. “Oh please—" she began. “I say, don’t look so frightened—1 only want to know where I am.” This was apparently something that could be answered. A little mod- est pride displaced her timidity. “You're at our place—Tom’s and wmine. I'm Min.” “Oh—" He was expected to know |, who Tom was. . . . Tom and Min. He certainly didn’t, but it was obvious that he ought to. The girl said again, “I'l tell Nesta,” and got as far as turning the handle of the door, when he stopped her. “No—do wait a moment. Cin’t you tell me what's happened? I don't know—I—" His voice stopped dead. He didn't know. What didn’t he know? He shut his eyes and. tried to pierce the fog that filled his mind. He had had a dream about fog, and a dream about 2 voice. He had left the voice behind in the dream, but the fog had come with him. It filled his brain. He groped in it and forind nothing. 2 “At the sound of the closing door all me Jimmy?J™ bothering my head about things a. present.” The pillow was comfortable. He relaxed against it, conscious of a swimming head. Then Min came in with a tray, and he found that he was faint with hunger. Nesta watched him eat anc drink. When ke had finished, she took away the tray and came back to her seat on the bed. “Well?” she said, “feeling better?” “Yes, thank you.” “Want to talk?” “Yes.” “All right—go ahcad—" That was, easier said than done Where were you to begin When you had no landmarks? He went back to the question he had asked before. “Do you mind telling me where Iam?” “You're at Tom's place—in Led- lington. He opened his eyes upon her very /| directly. “And who is Tom?” “My brother,” said Nesta Riddell. Then shé laughed a little. “Come, Jimmy—you're not going to say you've forgotten Tom?” He put his hand up to his head. “I can’t remember. Have'l had a crack on the head?” She nodded, watching him. “Do you mind telling me how X got here?” “You really don’t remember? Well, I'll go back to a week ago., You know what had happened. You said you'd got to get off the map for a bit. I was to come here, and you were go- ing to work up the coast to.Glasgow. 1 don’t know what name you went under, but you were on the Alice Arden when she got driven ashore on the Elstop sands. There was a gale first, apd then an awful fog, and she broke up dgainst the cliffs. Very few people were saved. They took you into the Elston cottage hos- pital, and Tom and I fetched you away yesterday. Can’t you really re- member anything about it?” His hand went up to his eyes and pressed on them. He said, “Tom—" His voice choked on the word. Then, in a dull whisper, “I re- mmbor—-lhn fog.” "7 wyri, ALTAR SUGIETY WINTER PROGRAM Given Away at Annual Bazaar in November Members of the Ladies’ Society of the Catholic Altar | ternoon at the home of George Simpkins and discussed the various activities planned for the coming fall and winter.
