She didn’'t want anyone from the vil- lage to ses her leaning out of her window at midnight. The steps were coming towards tiie village, not from it. She wondered who it could be that was coming Home so late, She leaned, foarward again with a shiver running over her. There was someone standing at the gate. She could see no more than that. A hornbeam hedge divided the garden from the road. It was cut into an archway over the gate, and under this arch someone was standing. Caroline could see nothing but a dark shape standing there quite still. The little breath of air had died away. None of the shadows in the | garden moved. And then all at once the shadow by the gate did move. She hieard the click of the latch, the gate swung, creaking a little, and a man came a few slow steps along the ‘path. He stopped between the second and third rose-trees and | looked up. In'that moment Caroline thought that her heart had stopped. Every- thing seemed to stop, because, in the dusk that was neither light nor dark- | ness, she thought it was Jim Randal standing there. He had stood like that a hundred times, looking up at the old schoolroom window when he wanted her—ecalling, “Caroline!” He didun’t call now. It wasn’t Jim —it couldn’t be Jim. Oh, Jim was drowned. How could it—how could it be Jim? Did anyone ever come back like that in the dead of the night? She felt as if she were drowning too, bécause sheé couldn’t take her breath. And then quite suddenly . he ; turned and went down the path and out at the gate. The gate clicked, and everything went on again. Caroline found herself faking deep choking breaths. Her heart raced furiously. The next thing she knew she was on the stairs, running down; and then the door was open and she was on the brick step, listen- ing. There was no sound behind her in the house. Taere was no sound in the ‘garden, not the rustle of a leaf or the stirring cf a bird; but from the road there came the faint sound of footsteps that were going away. She ran down the path and out of the gate and followed them. "It wa§; cool M’ thé road, and dark because of the elm-trees. The moon was somewhere behind the trees. Caroling ran a Jittle way, and then stopped to listen again. The foot- steps Were. just ahead, and present- ly she gould see a something that was ker. than.the shadow of the elms, g before her at a steady geous Fortune 4 WWM —tall pillars of grey stone with a stiff stone pineapple on top of each.

The eélms stopped here, and the light shone clear across the green, Something clafiiored in Caroline’s ear: “Jind’s drowned—it can’t be Jim.” And then she was running through the moonlight and fnto the shadow. The trees that bordered the drive had been growing together for thir- ty years. Old Mr. Randal wouldw't have anything cut. It was as dark: as the darkest tunnel, It was dark even wiien he sun was shining. Now it was like a tunnél hung with black’ velvet, & The gravel was so overgrown with moss that it was like running on a soft carpet. Caroline’s feet made no, noise at all, nor, when she checked and listened, could she hear the sound of any other foot. Shé went on again, not running now, and with her hands fending out before Ler, The tunnel under the trees had an empty feeling. It went right on tg the corner of the house and there ceased. at all. It wasn't dark any longer, but all the light came barred and chequered through the branches of the great cedar which stood up against the moon. The house seemed vague and uns substantial, its tangled creepers daps pled with silver. It wasn’t a place in its,chambers:; It was a house of dreams, Until she stood in the black mouth of the drive and looked at the house, Caroline had been afraid. Part of her had been very much afraid, but she had gone on because she had to go on. Now the part that was afraid stopped being afraid any more. The empty house drew her into its own dream, and she stopped being afraid. She began to run across the bars of moonlight and shadow, and as sht ran she called. “Jim! Jim! Wait for me!” 'AROLINE came to the cornef, and saw the whole front of the house and the gravel sweep before it unshadowed in & faint moony light. In the middje of the lwe:s the man whom she had follow stood looking up at the house. Carol had done with hesitating and being afrald. Those were things, which she had left behind, outside the dream. She came to him, rum ning lightly, and as he turned af the sound of her running feet, sl caught him by the arm, § “Jim!" It was her very warmest, softest, deepest voles. !
