She also = that he had lost his tem- Phe was correct: Tally and his grandfather had both insisted they were more than content and had mo wish to go elsewhere. “How- ever,” Thorn finished, “young Mack promised to do something about the old man and the child over- running our place; also about the ennoyance of the chickens and so “dust what?” ‘Thorn shrugged. “I don’t know. Anyhow. they can’t be bought off. i them five thousand dol- lars cash,” Jocelyn sighed. “I wish Bob would get back from the. tennis meet in Los Angeles.” “Why? He certainly is no help, If anything, he. would gnequrage them to further outrage.” “Perhaps. But they do seam’to like him and he might be able to do more with them than we tan, After all, he ought to help us; we are his own flesh and blood.” Thorp growled. “Tell vou what. Lyn — jump into some. sports slothes.and T'll run.you over to the club for the rest of the day. You negd to get away from here.” “T need something!” A few minutes later Tally, rest- ing on the plow handles. saw them @rive off. His chin hardened; his eyes rezistered resentment. Gramp ambled over, his wrinkled jaws worrying ‘his “chaw of tobaccy.” His sh~2wd old eyes noted Tally's exnression. “What's eatin’ on you, Tally? The qt 9° them folks traipsin’ off to their swell doin’s?” “No. It's none of my business what they do.’ “Wish you was rich like them?” “No. Not if it made.me like that smr¢. nompous ape that calls him- self Thorndyke! Gramp, get vour| he hammer and nails. We've got work to do.” ‘A Little Snob’ “Wat you aimin’ at, Son?” “A fence,” Tally stated. “A high board fence with no knot holes and no chinks!

So he was a stubborn fous fool. Maybe Gramp was right. He | could have accepted the five thousand dollars Thorndyke had | offered him and taken his family elsewhere. There actually was no valid reason why he shouldn’t have. Well, why hadn’t he then? Probably, he told himself, for the same reason he had st ed on and | on in Texas, hating to admit ok was licked.
