There was pleading In his voice, his face wore a harrawed expression. “Don't you see what we're doing to each other?” Judith gave one tiny cry, startled, hurt, then flew into bis arms— “Normy, why must this happen to us?” she whispered, “I can't go back on my word and | love you——” “Then you will see Lampere?” he asked.

Big Tom had even known Norman's reaction. Lampere was his senior partner, bis father’s friend. “Norman, it’s useless.” Judith slapped kid gloves to the dressing table to emphasize the statement. “Either you love me enough to ear ry on through this, or .. .” she held out her hands, pink palms up. The door bell shrilled through the house and in a moment Lige came P & ( up—"Ma’s Lampere, he say he'd like to talk to Miz Dale, alone. . ..” “Tell him Mrs. Dale has retired,” said Judith. She shrugged out of jacket and | skirt, weit to the wardrobe, reached in and drew out the first robe. She | had slipped into it before she real- ized it wa: peach-glow had worn the night of Tom Bevins’ death. “Norman, was it Lampere’s idea | they meet here?” she asked as she stood before him tying the folds of belt, “Yes, but he came at my invita- tion.” Judith stood on tiptoe, slipped white arms about his neck and brought his head down to hers— “Normy. more than you think 1 do. I'd like to tell you my side of the story, but it’s useless, you're too prejudiced to un- derstand. tell chem down there that I'm... oh I know a nice Lampere effusion, “prostrated from the ordea. of the afternoon.’” UT when he had kissed her lin- geringly, and had left her she was no longer poised, cool and self- contained. She trembled with a ner- yous chill and Delphy, coming up, snuggled her into a blanket in a deep chair and brought a pot of hot mite o’ company comin’ t’night?’ chocolate (her panacea for all ills) and a hot brick. After the old colored woman had left, her kindness hung about Judith like an gura, a comforting aura. She looked out of the window on the swale and beyond to the grove of trees stretching east. She ‘oved it all... this home, and Norman. She drowsed a little, then sat up alert as Mathile’s laugh sounded from the hall. Judith thought of the sob scene in the office that after- noon. The sound of motors came from the driveway, meshing of gears, then silence, Soon Norman would come up and they would discuss things and perhaps find a way to compromise. The moon was topping the grove as it had topped the Gulf horizon that night .. . eons agu it seemed to Judith. She had stood on the trawler deck and watched the shad- ows, There had been a triangle and she with the strange premonition of women-kind had sensed the shadow as more than a filament of fancy, One black bar had dissolved ,. , o ite had faded, and yet the tri- ‘angle seemed to hold its place in her life. Word by word she recalled her conversation with Norman that night, She bad asked* him: if she ‘midst make a choice between her work and her marriage and he had said no. He had prophesied that she would be contented, She had been, She would have been stronger in her fight against Lampere had she been able to see the whole af from Norman's viewpoint, She was @ girl-wift stenographer, de voted to the ory of 8 man who had stood by at her father’s death, then as soon as he was able, had given her a fine position, He had suffered sunstroke, soften- ing of the brain, something which had given him peculiar ideas . . . why else would a man leave the building of a dam to a stenogra- pher! He had worked out a cunning Pian and by playing on the girl's emotional loyalty was literally forcing her to carry them out.
