she persisted. "Ill never marry Ben

She did not wait for an answer but

pretty hard hit. Those trees have
been her playmatcs for good many

the sun beat down with a fervor
which was almost OverpOwcring. Away
to the west a cloud was hanging. low,
black and OminouS. Not a breath OF
wind was stirring. and the leaves OF
the naples hung wilted from their
stems. The birds barely SKINNED the
earth in their flight. and the crows
were keeping up an inceSSant cawing.

He stopped at the fence and looked
at the sky. The cloud in the west
was no nearer, the air was sitting,
