We were walking along the beach

CHAPTER K.

II there are any who, lilse Mrs. Ora
ham, dislike salt air and object to the
constant intrusion of the ocean, this
narrative will not interest them.
Looking back upon 1t now, it seems
to me that everything we did that
summer, indeed, almost everything
we thought and said, was in some
way connected with the sea. And per.
haps this is not so strange after all,
since we looked out upon 1t from every
window and it's murmur was never
absent from our ears.
1t was Gabrielle who originated the
plan of supper on the rocks. Gabr..
ellie was great in originating, but we
used to tell her she liked to watch
other people carry out her ideas. She
sat in the hammock and urged her
project, while her hair blew about her
ears and her book slipped unnoticei
from her lap.

Mr.. Blake of course"
"And the Grahams," l added.
eff you like" the tone was not en-.
thusiastic. Il must say she gets or
my nerves; she Is so mysterious"
Gabrielle dislikes secrets unless she
happens to be party to them. She
now returned to the subject with re.
newed vigor.
1T is full moon, you know. Think OF
the water dashing over the rocks, and
the fire Wen make ont of driftwood."
"Spoors. forks and napkins for all
those people," ruminated Elizabeth

mo trouble at all. Just get Mary
Anne to put some things in baskets.
In fact" Gabrielle paused moment
before breaking the news, Il have al.
ready asked Mr.. Bennett; met him In
the village when I went for the mail
and 1t suddenly occurred to me il
would be nice to do this tonight"
OF course after this startling dis.
closure 1t was impossible to demur
further. and Elizabeth rose to the oc.
casion.
