He tells Georgie he'is going to Ger- many for an operation that will, he hopes, remove the sear. But she also tells her they must discontinue their walks together. Georgie, wild with grief, rails at him—and ends by confessing that she loves him. Chapter 23 , THE LETTER & went to London'to meet Clifford: with the full de termination Mhat she was not going ‘to enjoy herself. , Her head ached a little and ner ‘eyes were red with crying. By the morning post she had re- eeived a lettes from. ber mother. “Bishop—" ‘so her mother wrote (“is ill, or imagi:.es that’he ts. He Vinsists that he must see a specialist, # German specialist, and so we are “eoming to London for a week.or two, and then going on to Berlin. I should have thought there were plenty of good doctors.out here, but Bishop:is so obstinate (what n.an is not?) and 80 we are sailing next week. We shall. be staying in London, -of course, but you mist come and wee me.” So Bishop was ill! Georgie felt sorry. .Not that the big, red-faced man with the loud voice had ever troubled tc be nice to her, but ft seemed pathetic somehow, to think of anyone so Vigorous as he always appeared to be, having to go so far as Germany to get cured. She broke the news to her uncle EOR! with t misgiving. “Mother's coming home," was her brief an-t of Lei mt. “Home!” aiward Bancroft.glared ‘at her. “What the devil is she cim- fing for anyway?” i { “Bishop is ill,” Georgie said. “I'm not surprised.” There was Mnfinite satisfaction in her uncle’s ivoice, “My own brother was the ‘first fool she Killed off, and now whe'g fund « second, Well, she.can’t, come here and you can tell her so. _ Qéorgia smiled as she thought jher mother’s extreme daintiness and love of luxury; she could hard- ily imagine her in a house where enrene very little comfort, and most indifferent cooking. “She doesn't want to come here,” © ghe murmured. Bancroft frowned. “And why not | Wonderful “how -ansfous “Humph!

Press stunt.” Bancroft de @lared. ‘I daresay if the truth’s ‘known he got his jaw broken in a ‘brawl; you can’t tell me!” Georgie turned away; her face ‘was burning with anger, and she fwas afral. to trust horself to say ‘@ay more. Edward Bancroft might now a great deal about brawls, but he certainly knew nothing about Nicholas Boyd. She went upstairs and dressed to go to the station. It ‘was a bore, she decided, having to Meet a man in whom one was not feally interested; why did life al- ‘ways do that sort of thing? “Never thatime, the place and the dgved one together”—she ‘had read that somewhere In a book, and it struck her as being painfully true, M8 was a fino morning, and London was a glorious place, but it was all @pollt because she was going to @eet the wrong man.
