And thought of herselt tached, hon- est thought—was impossible to her; she had never in tier life at- tempted it. But thought of her husband came more easily, though in blind-alley fashion. Without bis.horses and his dogs, what could he do? She tried to imagine him euduring even one day on the tiny income that re malved to them, but the construc tive effort was too much for her. Besides, they planned to go abroad ang imagination ‘broke down be- fore tife in a country that was not England. She began. to -cry loudly, ex- saperateilly, like q child. She bur- ried into her house, and flung her- self from room to room. She had come to the open win- dow of the morning-room and as hee stood before it, the sound of | children’s volees drifted in. Mark's was thin with petulance, Barbara’s unusually round and vi- brant for a child of six. Her honey- gold curls bobbed into view as she darted_onto the lawn in pursuit of a rolling ball. Before i had been retrieved, Mrs. Lodely saw her husband come from behind the shrube that sheltered Mark's spinal carriage and stoop to speak to the | Deautifal child on the grass, Then Sam Lodely went deter minedly across the lawn, down a path sentinelled with golden-rod, and shut himself into a distant summerhouse, Littl Barbara Quentin, looking gravely after bim, | nodde@ to herself ag though she conned over a lesson.
