Finally Nola asserted: “I've just about completed negotiations for giving away ten million dollars tg the government toward re-for- estation. “Why—that’s a splendid idea,” Thorn exclaimed. “However did you arrive at it?” “Oh, with the help of a lawyer friend.” Jocelyn felt sure she meant Tally and hoped, for Thorn’s peace of mind, Nola would never divulge the lawyer's identity. “Anyhow,” Nola went on, “the point is this—if I can Fre the gov- ernment ten million, I guess I can give my hosts and their friends a party.” Thorn’s eyes, appealing and mis- erable, met Jocelyn’s. “You'll do no such a_ thirg,” Jocelyn declared. “You're our est.
