He must have known that she was on the ship. Then, before she was aware of it, Terry was beside her. She was dimly conscious of the touch of his hand on her shoulder. His voice when he did speak seemed to come to her from a great distance and through heavily veiled mists, mists that failed to screen the anguish and pain and hope in his empty tones. “Mearna,” he uttered hollowly. ‘There was penitence in his voice. For the first time &he saw Terry the moody, the incorrigible, the little boy, really, truly sorry for something he o had done. It was all so fantastic to Mearna. “Terry,” she answered.
