They went off together, (hand in-hand. smiling eagerly into each other’s faces, their laughing yoices drifting back to the unhap- py. girl at the window.

It would be very , she reflected. if she could just blame someone else her Tt would also nice if she permitted herself the lace of self-pity. However, if the loss of both love and money had done nothing else, it had disclosed, to her at least, an inner courage and fortitude she had not dreamed she Perhaps, after all, she was not so different from Grandmother Jocelyn. It must re- juire a great deal of courage and rtitude to live one’s life to the end with a man one did not love; on with head high an to spirit undaunted. But... she didn’t want to live her life that | way. She wanted Tally now and | forever! Was it not inconsistent, she con- sidered, how one’s sense of values could become completely reversed in less than a year’s time? For now the words: Family. Tradition, Background, Social Standing, were merely hollow, empty words, not ‘a bit comforting, while Love, Laughter, Giving, Sharing, were not merely words ... they were synonyms for saree! Strange that ola, with a background even more traditional, more rigid, more fabulous than her own. should have-intuitively known enough to select these synonyms for living and discarded all others. ‘Collusion’ ‘HE raucous blast of an automo- bile horn from the drivewa: disrupted her introspective mood. Disrupted it effectively. It was Geoffrey’s horn. Once more she hopped out of | bed and ran to the window. Geoff was standing on the running- board of his roadster with his back . to her.

Very well, Geoff, you may have a room. 1 can use the money | and you won’t miss it.” _ After he had unpacked he joined her at breakfast in the glassed-in rch off the big dining-room, arm yellow sun streamed in, fee Fy her copper-hair, ‘touc! the soft creamy skin of her face and throat.

Later —Jocelyn on Mephisto, Geoff on Ranger—they rode along the surf- sprayed beach, then made a turn east up into the brown hills back of the highway and let the horses nibble grass.
