No, one couldn't expeet a fiancé to let you go to Spain!” “That .s just over,” Petronella told her. “That isn’t the reason.” Instead of questioning her, Clare explained. “I wan: to make a camp some- where in the mcuntains near Madrid. Soon, the city is going to fall to Franco,” Clare assured her with conviction. “We shall keep the children safe while the air Yaids finish their job, then return pen tu their homes, when Madrid as surrendered.” .. +5 5, Petronella’s exprbddion was agonized, as she met Clare’s eyes. “There’s nothing ['d rather do. It would be fine, to try to save something from the awful wreck- age, and pain, men inflict on them- selves, and their children. I've seen so much suffering. I've seen chil- dren as you've seen them, pale, starving; and babies. with eyelids @s mauve as crocuses. But if only you'd ask me to go somewhere else. Not to Madrid.” Quite bluntly, Clare suddenly asked ner question. “Why?” She leaned towards her. “Tve known since [ first met you, that we ought to be talking about you,” she stated quietly. “If it can Possibly help? Of course, if it can’t, shut me up. I'm so used to organiz- ing people.” she smiled. “l wi you could © organize me. You — you remember Tony Lance?" Petrone!la asked. Clare did not pretend denseness., “So he is the trouble!” For a moment Petronella was silent, while Clare waited. Then, as though were years at er, she blurted out the truth. "ve loved him for years, years. } know he’s no good to me, but I'm @ fool, and can’t help it.” One of Clare's eyebrows lifted ey “So youre the girl he met in Rangoon!.1 wondered, when he me second, then, to his told me.” ‘2 just went off without a she ten. “He pu: work. word.” “Yes, he told me something of the sort.” “It has been the same ever since.

He hadn t seer me for a long time. I'd changed a great deal. It suddenly struck him that. after all, my life with Peter had turned me into a Possible wife for him. So, at last, when it really suited him, he ad- mitted that he loved me. But then—” “Yes, tel] me what happened in Cairo?” Petronella’s low, urgent, unhap- PY voice described the few days of ippiness, and .he way they had ended. He: eyes met Clare’s. “You see? Life with Tony would be like that—danger. trouble, hor- ror. If 'd married him, I'd be in Madrid, now.” Clare Horton sat back. Her lips smiling, her eves soft. She shook her head ently at Petronella. “Then that is where you ought to be, my dear. You love him. “You ¢an’t make your own: tetms with Jove.” 4 ‘ od “But he doesn’t :ove me enough. He can’t!

For three days he abode darkness when Ananias, a believ er in the city, was instructed te visit him, restore his sight, and inform him that God had selected him as his messenger to the great Gentile world. Saul accepted the task, staying a short while in Damascus, then going away in- to Arabia, where he readjusted ‘his mental and spiritual life com- pletely to the new faith im his soul. He returned to Damascus, escaped from his enemies who wanted to kill him, and went to Jerusalem. Barnabas allayed the suspicions of the Christians there, so Saul talked with Peter, the leader of the apostles, and James. the brother of Jesus.
