BALTZ. Secretary : Philip Lawrence and his frail INSTALLMENT L HE Lawrence family, although in the best sense of the word ploneers, had not come to the Golden West by means of ccv- ered wagons. They had left their Boston moorings like the gentle- folk of means and leisure that they were, in the year of our Lord eighteen ! hundred and forty-nine, and had saled elegantly for Ric, for Buenos Aires and around the Horn. They loitared in Valparaiso and in Lima for some weeks, taking things easily, in a leisurely way, and had in due time come up the stormy coast of California and had dropped anchor in the opales- cent harbor of Yerba Buena. For San Francisco had been still familiarly known ‘as Yerba Buena then and the blue waters of the bay had lapped the strand at Montgomery street. The globe-trotters, magnificent Indian- shawled pretty wife, had remained on the ship for a few days, for the settle- ment on shore promised small com- fort fcr tourists. Thus they had en- joyed a safe view not only or the glor- jous harbor strewn with green islands aud ringed with eternal hills, but of the busy traffic between the Mexicans, Spanish, Chinese and Janpanese fish- ing smacks and trading boats that had put off from the shore. Early in their second week, however, they had been obliged to seek lodging ashore. This was for two reasons, one important, one - ridiculous. The im- portant reason was that an heir to the Lawrences was about to be born. The absurd reason was that scme pre- posterous person had discovered gold, or had pretended to, at a place called Sutter Creek and that every one in Yerba Buena had promptly lost his senses. Philip and Abigail La%rence natu- rally did not lose their senses. They were rich anyway; they were above this undignified scramble for lucre. Philip had an income of $3,000 a year and Abigail's father cwned five sailing vessels, including this very Abby Bald- win, in which they had spent their ‘honeymoon. Bufihe sailors, and indeed the offi- cers of the Abby Baldwin, werz not above acquiring fortunes and they had instantly deserted the ship and made for the gold region. So Philip and Abigail had signaled a Chinese crab- catcher and in his little shallop he had rowed them and their carpet bags ashcre. They had felt affronted and be- wildered, and Abigail very faint. But, pale and heroic and smiling, she had sald to Philip that within three days the men would be back and that then they—Philip and she—would bz able to make pretty stiff terms with them. They had gone to “the French- weman's,” & quaint-looking adobe house on a hill, with an upper balcony and shutters. There were no window- sashes but there were tents of mosquito-netting over the bed and the bare floors were clean. Downstairs was merely a level of dim arcades, oored and smelling of spilled | here men lounged on benches | - the Prenchwoman herself tended the bar. But the upstairs rcom had been comfcrtable enough and Abigail had put the daguerrcotype of her mother—a hook-nosed ringleted Love]y “W;-omen Depend Upon This Safe Preparation Thousands of particular women use Key's Astringent Powder in their daily douche.

This would do for the present, she had said. But one could not live quite like a savage. after all, and immediate- 1v after breakfast tomorrow Philip must find a really nice place, even if he bad to buy it, and a good plain serv- | ant and a nurse. If not, then they would have to go back to the ship. So much for Philip's benefit. But when he had gcne out after supper to walk about a little on the uneven hilly streets and listen to the shouting and singing of the strangely mixed population. and watch the card games. the drinking and the fights. Abigail had felt very low-spirited indeed, and had cried a little secretly into the big hard French pillow. They had been 11 months getting so far and the baby was due in a few weeks' time. Per- haps it wculd be weeks before they could get a crew on the Abby Baldwin. Philip had returned fiushed, dis- tressed and annoyed from his search the next morning; he had returned flushed, distressed and increasingly an- noyed from the searches of the fol- lowing days. Desperate, ne had rented a spanking team and a loose-wheeled buggy, and had begun to drive about adjoining country lcoking for elter. Sth: it had become obvious now that the crew was not ~oing to return to the Abby Baldwin. The ship had swung rotting at her anchor in a dismal com- pany of other deserted vessels week in and week out. Meanwhile 50 miles southeast of | foggy Yerba Buena they had found refuge on a rancho. It was managed by a wid-w, one Senora Castellazo, who lived farther south in another hacienda and was willing to rent this one to the strangers. A four-square adobe bufld- ing of four empty rooms, shaded mag- nificently by natural oaks and by & plantation of beeches, gums, cctton- it had con- tained no furnishings whatsoever when the Lawrences had moved in. But many trips up to the Abby Baldwin had pretty well transformed the dismal place. Philip. breathlessly grateful that somehow, with the ald of a Morman doctor frcm Benicia and the care of two stolid wall-eyed Mexican women, Abigail had actually brought forth a first-born daughter, had made no_ccmplaints. Poor pAhigufl had laughed forlornly cn the first anniversary of her wed- ding day. It had found her weak and weary, stretched on a mattress on the floor cf one of the cool rooms, while a burning August day had hammered away at the spread level acres of the rancho outside. Beside her had been Annie Sarah. Somehcw Abigail's ordeal had been got over and she had been free then to cry a little, thinking of her room | at hcme in an orderly shaded Massa- chusetts village, with Ma's lavender- scented linen on the smooth bed and roses in a green glass vase on the bureau, and the lace curtains blowing softly in and cut of the opened up- stairs windows, Lilacs, trembling grass and grandpa’s grave in the graveyard, and doughnuts and currant jelly—oh, dear! As soon as the baby and the mother were well upon the road to normal living, Philip and Abigail had serjously discussad going home. They had kept a sharp eye on all the vessels that came in the Gate, and Philip had gone up t> the city at least once a week to see what the chances were. Then old Senora Castellazo had died .and her sond had wished to dispose of the Santa Clara hacienda. Four hun- dreed acres for $900. Philip had con- sidered it a wise investment. There was fruit—some fruit—there already, there were sheep and cattle included in the sale price. Upon consideration it hed seemed to Philip that this sunshiny sheltered fiat region, well inland, was the cming district, and that by holding on to this property 10 years—15 years, he and Abigail could not fail to be among the prosperous picneers of the new world. Meanwhile, Fanny Lucy had been born. It had been rather trying that a fine ship had left for Scuth America and Eastern ports on the very next day. She had delayed so long in San Prancisco Harbor that Philip and Abi- geil had really hoped to be ab'e to sa’l on her. But Fanny Lucy had delayed, By KATHLEEN NORRIS Copyright 1931, by North Américan Newspaper Alliance, Ine. So Philip and Abigail had signaled a too, and had unconsciously affected her parents’ destinies thereby. For letters had gcne to Boston on that ship and letters four months later somehow had struggled overland in answer. ‘The respective families of Abigail and Philip had been perfectly | delighted at their venture and wrot that they were certainly ehvious of the dwellers in a ccuntry where there were no snow, no thunderstorms and no poverty. They said they were having | a terrible Winter and that Abigail's father had shut himself up in the attic for nine days after hearing of the fate of the Abby Baldwin. Philip’s brother Silas and Abigail's | brother Adoniram had been o fired | with enthusiasm that they had sold out their interest in the family.shoe busi- ness and were now on their way to St. Joe hoping to jcin a caravan, and Philip's aged mother, a blue-nosed crepe-clad widow'of 47, who was sink- | ing rapidly to her grave, as her years bescemed, had sent a message to the effect that she was coming, too, soon's she could get rid cf Sam's place. is had somewhat flattered and somewhat dashed the Western branch of the family, but they had been more pleased than otherwise and had at whose judgment is justified. In due course the 400 acres became 4,000 acres, and the 15 head of cattle that of many hundred head. The | pioneers became “the lucky Law- rences.” Brcthers, cousins, old mu'.h:rv old father, they flourished and waxed fat. Abigail bore eight daughters and the late sixties and early seventies, in a land in which women were still rare and prized. San Francisco grew like a mushroom and Philip might have cgcned a thou- sand doors to great wealth had he been a man to see. But he closed one after | the other with his own hand and went blindly on in an infatuation of satis-| faction with his rolling acres, his miles | of fruit trees, the growing family over which he ruled supreme. Some of the girls went East when they married, some lived in San Fran- cisco or Stockton, some died. It was not a salubrious day for pioneer women, with one out of every seven dying in childbirth. Some were poor, opening boarding houses, scrimping in lonely cross-road villages. But no one of them ever forgot that she was a lucky Lawrence and belonged to a distinguished New England family. They hoarded mahogany and lace and yellowed old glass berry powls; they sent back to Boston for faded primitive paints; they talked incessantly of the significant fact that the Lawrences had not come to California as pioneers. Oh, dear, no! Mother Lawrence had come | to San Francisco harbor on her wed- ding trip, on one of Grandfather Bald- win's own trading ships. ‘The one son, Patterson Lawrence, duly married, too, and lived in the house with which his parents had re- placed the old adobe hacienda. The hacienda was used as a grain house, a place for hides and ropes and farm ma- chinery. The new house stood 600 feet nearer the highway and was reached by a long lane of poplars and euca- 1t Iyptus. Abigail, and after her her daughter- in-law, in their fervor to encourage shade in that hot, dry country, planted eve: ything upon which they could put their hands, close to the house. They did not foresee that the pampas grass and the verbena trees, the peppers and roses and evergreens would grow closer, thicker, darker every year. Eventually the pretentious old frame building with its scallops of mill work and its bay windows, its cupola and balustraded roof, was caught tightly in dusty, heavy leafage, and the garden filled with mossy, slippery patches where even in Summer no light crept in on the sickly grass. ‘The house built in the early 70s had three wide steps,in front coming up from the path, afd a shallow veranda upon which bay windows, on either side of the door, protruded. The doog_itself was wide and made wider by thé rec- tangles of colored glass that framed it. In the door were panels of dark red glass, with woodland scenes, deer, wil- low trees, bridges, etched upon them in white. For 30 years the house of Law- rence had been in eclipse and the gar- den showed it. The baronial acres had long since melted away; the sleépy, prosperous town of Clippersville was situated where the Castellazo bull ring had once stood and only the four acres surrounding the house and a small farm some miles away down toward the marshes re- mained to the lucky Lawrences of the ancestral glory. Acre by acre old Philip Lawrence and his son Patterson had watched their fortunes decline; the old ploneer of the Yerba Buena days lived to see the end of the century and the end of his own prosperity, and died leaving what remained in hands even less capable than his own. For Patterson Lawrence was a poet who lived merely to gather worthless old books about-him, to dream over the painstaking penning of insignificant essays which were rarely printed and for which he was never paid. He read papers to infant chambers of commerce from Sacramento to Riverside, compar- ing California to Athens, and hymning poppies, fog, Junipero Serra and sea gulls in countless verses all beginning ;::l:e rapturous praise of the Golden At 40 he married a poet's daughter who had been precariously existing for all hex 16 years upon bread, water and sonnets from the Portuguese in a shanty on Rincon Hill.

And one minutc later she had | slipped away, leaving the prophecy to gild little Ariel's childhood: The widowed elderly father did the best he could for them all until his eldest son was ncarly 18 and Gail a | capable bustling house manager two | years younger. Then the big guns be- gan to boom across the water, the | service flags flashed in answer 'upon many_a quiet flagpole in Clippersville, and Patterson Lawrence, almost 60 years old, put a copy of Keats in one | pocket and a copy of Shelley in the other and hurricd off to die of flu in overcrowded Weshington, just as sure his loyal children were sure that he | was helping his country and doing the | | patriotic_thing. Then Phil and Gail had to shoulder the burden. ' Gail Lawrence was su- premely the girl for the job. She was squarely _buili, womanly ‘at 16, bri | ming with tnterests, activities, ambi- tions and enthusiasms. | By this time the once lucky Law- | rences had almost no money. The| ranch thrce miles back in Stanislaus was rented for something less than $300 a year and taxes were always over 200. Phil had all but finished high school. But as Phil and Gail quite ‘slmplv agreed, meals were more im- rtant than education. So Phil went ?m work at the iron works, and Gail, | upon being offered a job in the public library, accepted it gratefully. | They were proud of themselves and lof thelr responsibility, and all Clippers- vilie applauded them. They scrambled | along in the disréputable old house | yery happily: they were always laugh- every one was sure that they would get along splendidly. Were they not the last of the lucky Lawrences? Surest of all was Gall, the resolute undaunted, optimistic mother and sis- ter, cook, nurse and lawmaker in one. Life had been a story to Gail for a few years and she had turned a fresh page eagerly every day. She and Edith were going to marry delightful men and Phil chould marry, too. And Sammy should live in Edith’s house and Ariel in Gail's, and Ariel should write wonderful poetry. There would be plenty of money for everything as there always had been—soon. sober, a little thinner, as the years had | slipped by: they had all grown shabbier. Even to her, poverty began to seem a cerious matter. Phil had always been brief, worried and unresponsive when Gail had tried to drag him into her dreams. Edith hated poverty, too; it hurt her pride. She had grown quieter, bookish, in- tellectual, something of a recluse. Sammy had done nothing except slide through his shoes and get D- minus marks in his studies. And Ariel jwas completely spoiled. They had all !spoiled the shy thistledown-headed little girl of 10, with a hoarse boy's voice, that she had been when her her as a poet before she could fairly write. She did write poetry and that was enough for Clippersville. Clipj ville was not critical; the Challenge published everything Ariel wrote. And she was discontented, proud and un- managable and would not go to school without constant urging and under constant protest. Altogether the outlook was dis- counzlns' and promised w grow more Te were moments when even G.ll could not quite believe in the luck of the Lawrences. Her twenty-third birthday found Gail a quick-witted eager capable girl, secretly a little bit scned -nfl doubtful but o\ltvmrd!y gay, sible and pleasant to look at. l.I.ke l“ the Lawrences. The older four had tawny thick hair: Phil's was closely cropped; Edith wore her's wound about her young head in severe bralds. Sam's was often a disheveled scandal, and Gall's not much better. But Galil's wes the waviest, the brightest, the thickest. ‘These four had blue eyes, thick black lashes, heavy eyebrows and square- fingered hands. The Lawrence hands were different from any other hands in Clippersville. The Lawrences stood on their feet peculiarly, too, braced like young blooded horses at stance, their eyes showing.

The old house had set- tled a little as if annoyed, in the great earthquake, and the kitchen flor ever; since had run downhill toward the pantry door, which, opening outward, had to be dragged up with some force like a ship’s door in a sli{hn list. The Lawrence girls were still occasionally cooking on the great French range That mascused 18 Teet by 6. But gas had been brought into the house abcut the time of her father's marriage and on one end of the range was a three- burner stove and a portable oven, where most of the family’s meals were | prepared. On this birthday morning Gail and Edith went upstairs. Gail was heated from domestic labors; her face looked pale with heat; her rich, curly hair, brighter than Edith's, was tousled. Gall's glance approved of Edith. “That looks better on you than it ever did on Mary Tevis,” she cbserved. Edith studied herself in the mirror dispas-icnately. “I never would have got it” she| said. “I don't like dots. But it cer- tainly has come in usefully.” “The worst of Mary Tevis is, she'll glve you a bunch of things one time and then forget you for seven years!” Gall, having made herself compara- tively presentable, said briskly: “Now, when I'm rich I shall have a list cf girls—damn such a shoe lace!” “Abigail, you ought not say that.” “I know I oughtn't.
