Chapter 2 Hwc# was on his feet, saying eagerly, “Well, for the love of—Tubb: and-so. again!” The round. almost chertbic face broadened in a delighted smile as the two men shdok hands lustily, Tubby’s blue eyes shining with delight. “Well, I'm darned! Good old Hugh—best fullback the old Alma Mater ever tad. Best darned architect—hey, what happened to you?” demanded Tubby eagerly “Last I heard of you you'd coma a cropper with a bum ticker or something and had vanished to hell-and-gone in a little, forsaken hole. down South somewhere— some little two-bit town where the only excitement was watching the weekly train go by—* Hugh laughed as he caught the spark in Meredith's eye and held up a warning hand. “Sir,” he said hhaughtily, “you are speaking of the place I love—that I call home; and you haven’t met my. wife. Darling, this is Tubby Porter. an old college pal! Tubby, my wife!” Meredith said, “How do you do, Mr. Porter? And River Gap is not a two-bit town and it’s not forsaken—” | Porter, you old so- it’s good to see you UICK alarm flowered in Tub- by’s blue eyes and he pro- tested, “Hi, hold it, hold it! This River Gap place—do you two live there?” “We do,” said Hugh haughtily, though his eyes were dancing a little. “Then it must be a garden spot, an Eden no less, Paradise—per- haps even a shade of Shangri La! But what did happen, Hugh? Last we heard of you, you’d—er—well er ““Gone away .to die?” Hugh could say it tightly now. “Well. I had, in a way.

You're much too beauti- ful! I mean—well, hang it all, you don't look like a doctor!” Meredith laughed and said to Hugh, “Derling, does that make amends for calling River Gap a two-bit town? Shall we forgive him, do you think?” “Hi, have e_ heart,” pleaded Tubby, and studied Mere edith and then looked at Hugh and said, “So you twb are marricd! Well, I'm—I mean, t'at’s swell! Look, how’s about getting together some of the old gang and having a party? I love impromptu, parties, don’t ycu, Mrs. Prather?” “The name is Merry, to Hugh’s friends,” said Meredith firmly. “And paove perties, period!” "TUBBY bearr2d happily. “My place, then, about nine-ish, shall we say?” and then anxious+ d}ly to Hugh, “Look, are you go- me, -willy-nilly, inte a hdspita sat over me day and. night. Thee some pretty daring things in the way of treatment, and lo and be- hold, first thing you know I was well on the road to recovery!” “And then.” stated Meredith ing back to Carmichael and Blaine?

My wife is the town’s mainstay as a physician and I’m not exactly an unimpor- tant guy down there—big frog in a little puddle, you know. Up here, I'd be just one among a flock of very small frogs?” “I'm sold—say no more,” said anny and rose. “See you at ie eeougied the address and » Hugh watched Meredith as her eyes followed Tubay across the room, When she looked back at Hugh she smiled a little and said, almost defensively, “After all, if we're going to have the rest of our lives together, we can spare an Cel ee and then for your old frien Hugh grinned. “My idea exact- ly,” he sarured her. “After all, the least I can do is let a few of the what a lucky guy I am he told her. ‘UNNY,” she mused aloud, after a little. “The first time I came back to River Gap, I'd al- most forgotten I had a family, consisting of an adored and adoring grandfather, an aunt, and a kid sister, in the years of col- lege and Medical and interriing. I thought it was just what your friend called it—a two-bit town where they_watchea a weekly train go by. I could no more have imagined settling down there and practicing medicine and taking up as much as I could of ‘the Old Doctor’s’ work than I could have thought of sailing to the moon! Yet here I am, four years later, Settled in River Gap for life, fond of the place, fond of the people, and wondering how I could ever have thought I’d like being assistant to the Head of Staff, Dr. Evan Farley, that bril- liant young gynecologist!” Hugh said almost anxiously, “No regrets, sweet?” She stared at him in complete | amazement, | *“Regrets, darling?
