- 7 MONDAY, MAY il, id60, Golden Chapter 39 DEFIANC - “7M going home, Aunt Phina, and to stay,” Iris said quietly. Her aunt made two steps and faced her, towering over her. “Are you crazy? Or is it you that’s had a tiff with Beckley?” “No. Aunt Josephine, please an- swer me a question. Were you and our mother immigrant girls who came over a-generation ago? Or did you have old Southern ancestry and convent réaring, 4s you told me?” “My darling child—” “I can tell you,” Owen’s voice broke in. “Mother and Phina and Honora were three pretty, clever Irish girls who came to America in their teens and worked their way up. Personally I’ve always been prond of it.” “Then why did Phina lie about it7” “My dear, you're very rude, and your values are silly. My publicity woman thotght it up at a time when it seemed better for the busi- ness, and for me.” “Your publicity woman should have remembered that you worked for Geor, Bi cousins the Dorriens when you first came over.” | {ris quietly repeated all that had} happened between herself and Geor- gia and Mrs. Morgan that day. “But, my dear little tired-out girl, don’t you see it’s ended beautifully? Don't give another thought to it; Mrs. Bloomington and I will work out a plan.” “You ca work out a plan that will ever make me any use to you again,” Iris said fiercely. “You have everything now that your use of me can give you. I'm goi “You romantic, hysterical baby!

Stay with me, | dear, do what you like. You're all} I have.” | “It 1 st d with you I'd be back | in the traces in two days.” He rose | leisurely, and adde Better get your things packed, . if you're leaving tonight. I'll drive you in to the apartment, and you can get a train to Persia tomorrow mor- ning. He turned to go upstairs. Lris made a last move toward Phina, but Phina did not see or hear. Her head buried in her arms on the broad arm of Owen's chair, she was sobbing broken-heartedly. As Iris, still moved, stopped a moment at the turn of the great tapestry-hung stair, she saw Honora come in in her maid's black and kneel down by Phina, who flung herself on her cousin's shoulder and went on sobbing. And that was the last of the picture, sharp in Iris’s mind. “I'm sorry about Camilla,” Owen said abruptly after a long silence. The brother and sister were driving down the long lighted miles of the Merrick Road. “She was finer than I was, and I laughed at her.” When she woke next day in the apartment it was nearly noon, and Owen had gone, leaving her a note: ain “I hated to wake you, you Were 80 worn out. I put a hundred in your handbag. Telephone me when you get to Persia, and tell them I'll be coming over for a visit soon. I love you, Iris, and as Camilla said, I know my road now. Thank you.” ay Y darling little girl. My dar- VE hing—” He was crying, near- ly; surely she could cry a little. “I’ve come home to stay,” she said. Uncle Will, like Owen, took things quietly. He did not even ask her why. “My darling child, nothing could make me as happy,” he said. “But you mustn’t decide in a hurry.” She said no more, then. She let him take her suitcases upstairs, fol- lowing herself with the second load so that he wouldn’t have to. “Morgan is out driving your Aunt Ella heme from the museum,” he said. “They'll be glad to see you.” Presently, still in the old gay affectionate way, she sent him downstairs and dressed herself in an old pink cotton hanging in the closet freshly ironed and followed him down, Morgan was helping Miss Ella out of the Ford. He turned pale, as Iris came to meet him, saying rather tremulously, “I’ve come back, you see.” ris—” Before he could do more jthan hold her hand tight, unabie, it seemed, to say anything at all for the moment, Miss Ella came forward and greeted her in a mat- ter-of-course fashion. “It's nice to have you back, child,” she said a little reprovingly, “you've made quite a long enough visit. I’m glad we have strawberry shorteake—” She trotted off in the direction of the kitchen. “You mustn’t mind Ella,” said her uncle, who could not seem to let her out of his sight for a mo- ment. “She has what she has always wanted, though not exactly as she planned it. She has been given a room at the town historical museum to use ag a permanent exhibit of your father’s paintings. I'm afraid Morgan made some arrangement. I wish you could have married the boy, dear: but that’s selfish, young people have to choose their own husbands and wives.” Then Miss Elia, always with that serene air of having attained all happiness, came in. “Take the child into the parlors, William, I want to set the table here for supper. to help the first night It was like one of those dreams where you go into a known place and ything is different. Her father ere gone—of course, they were in the museum! All the old beantiful furniture was back out of the attic. The white paneling was uncovered; the whole room was what she had alw wanted to be. “Morgan ex place xed your aunt to put this shape,” said Uncle Will She did not know how she got through supper; Morgan, more at home than she was, facing her across the table. But she managed to get through, and lator she slipped out the back dvor, still to avoid Morgan, and made her way around to the garden. An old twine hammock swung as it always had, between two trees. She dropped inte it, and let herself relax. And then, tall and striding in is old blue sweater and loose gray an was upon her. . . well face it first as last. as direct. “Why didn’t you stay?

It was so good, so wonderful, to be there with Morgan—Morgan talking to her in the old angry, tender way. It was too good, too wonderful. “I haven't cong your engagemen: ing he at him. “What do you mean? There's no engagement!” Her heart turned over, then quiet- ed. It might be true and yet they mightn’t want it talked about. “Aunt Ella wrote me you were engaged to Kay Oliver. And when you left me that night in Park Avenue when you brought the music book, you said, ‘Kay mayn’t be bril- liant and talented, but you know where to find her’.” “Well “Well, backed up by Aunt Ella’s letter, what else did that mean but marrying Ka; (Copyright, 193 in tulated you on she said, hold- £ very still and not looking Margaret Widdemer) A_ blessed understanding is reached. tomorrow, Lrfective December 22nd, 1935.
