He ‘stared at Morgan’s tall serge-clad figure, broad shouldered, loose-joint- ed, lounging behind the older man. “Good afternoon, Allan,” said Mor- gan placidly. “How is Granny?” “So that’s the answer,” Allan said with his little amused laugh. It sounded harmless enough except for the amazing fact that Morgan and Allan knew each other. But Mor- gan’s face was at its blackest. “How dare you go on misjudging Iris?” Then he got hold of his tem- per with an effort and spoke grave- ly. “After all, suspicion’s a family trait. We'd neither of us got hard- ened to honesty.” Allan still looked blankly shocked and a little pale; but he snatched with fair succ at his usual man- ner, “Behold, said he, “the long-lost neir. My Lord, Jim, I may have fallen below the romantic ideal, but at least I never let an old woman break her heart because I pretended | to be drowned.” “Granny knows I’m alive,” Mor- gan said. “She has ever since the night you went back on Iris.” Iris stood struck, gaping and si- lent. She held to the wicker table to steady herself. Jim . .. Morgan, her Morgan was the dead grandson Jim she had heard sof from Gamilla and Allan and everyong.

You wanted to be loved for yourself alone. I hope you keep your illusions this time!” And then Uncle Will, forgotten in the background, quieting the two men on the edge of a new quarrel. There was a moment of politer con- versation, and then Allan, poised and amiable, made his polite depar- ture. he got hold of himself—he made a gallant exit. “I’m glad you're alive, old boy—you know tHat,” he said as he went. “I do know it, Al,” Morgan said, and the two shook hands. ranny;s waiting inside there,” lan added over his shoulder as he ed out of the garden. “Tell her urprise party was a wonderful and that I’m going back to New York. You'll find her in the liv- ing room, probably with a fatted calf in her handbag.” | UT Granny was outside. She had stepped out of the French win- dow, Aunt Ella pehine her. “I was getting a little impatient, Jim,” she said. “I’m sorry not to have said more to you the night of the concert, Iris, but—for a consid- eration—I gave Jim my word.” She beckoned Iris closer, and Iris ran into her arms and kissed her. “I’m getting what I wanted, you’re marry- ing my grandson,” she said. “We necded sound stock in the strain. You're a good child, Iris.” Iris clung to her a moment. Then she said, a little shyly, “And—and Aunt Phina?” “You're a loyal little soul. Well, she’s ridden into glory (or what's glory for her) on your skirts. No- body's going to stop her, andishé’ll have enough trouble,” said Granny dryly, “getting into the ultimate so- ial Holy of Holies to keep her amused for some years yet. People like her aren’t happy unless they're storming redoubts.” “She is a wonderful woman, Phina,” said Uncle Will gently. “You are wonderful people, you Lannings,” said Granny, smiling, yet as if she meant it too, “Well, Mr. James Morgan Jameson, I know you have a good deal to discuss with Iris, and as I’m stay the night rl See you children again The sunset was like a doorway openin \dise.
