They sat in happy silence; the pangs of alter

had suffered were making the reaction of JOY
greater. Neither realized that the minutes were
passing, until heavy voice from the dark win
dow brought them to reality again.
Jeanne, it is ten o'clock. You must come in.
And Richard felt that he must go.
All summer the weather fine and warm,
and therefore it seemed unusually easy for Rich

Jeanne. Jeanne's waist became small; her laugh,

good friends; but evening was the time for love.
Los Angeles herald., 1908-07-19

Most of the thrilling moments occurred on an old
stone wall near the lake, half a block from
Jeannes home. There they watched the yellow
moon rise the dark water there Richard
wrote on the stone wall with a blue pencil,-"I
love you" and Jeanne laughed and pretended not
to see it. Once he frightened her with a ghost
story, and when she started to cry he put his arm
around her; she cried harder than ever Then he
was frightened and took his away. Then she
stopped crying and was angry with him for telling
the story.
September came, and they were very sad
Jeanne must go back to high school, and Richard
to Cornell. He tried to persuade his father that

hope; they must be separated.
The night before Richard left, he called for the
last time; but not alone. An unfathomable fear
brought with him George Worthington a friend of

Jeanne and said in a low but bold voice.

They gazed at each trembling and flushed until
the music ended Then the spell was broken
Richard laughed and talked noisily with the
others; but Jeanne was silent. They snook
hands for goodbye quite naturally, and Richard
said:
You'll hear from me soon.'
That night Jeanne prayed long and hard with
her hands gripping the coverlet and her feet
twisted up in her nightgown; and lay awake
until one o'clock with hot cheeks and eyes
strained wide open.
The first letters were full of questions and
always began:

BY JEAN WATTS.

Did you ever think that the sweetest songs,
Might never yet have been sung?
Did you feel that the greatest love-
Might never yet have found tongue?
Did you dream that the heaviest griefs,
Might be hidden by a smile?
And could you believe that the greatest wrongs,
Seem freest sometimes, from guile?
I'll tell you The poet was dazed and dumb
With the beauty of his song,
And love is divine how it be told
With words which to earth belong?
Grief: that is between your God and yourself
And nobody else need know;
But where's the amend, for a great wrong DONE
By seeming friend, not open foe?
