But the quarry was doomed to pass cut Of his plans
for time for on the following Sunday he rode alone
No Dede on a chestnut sorrel came across the back
road from Berkeley that day nor the day a week
later. Daylight was beside himself with Impotence
and apprehension, though in the office he contained
himself. He noted change in her, and strove TO
let none show in himself The same old monotonous
routine went on, though it was irritating and
maddening. Daylight found a big quarrel on his
hands with world that wouldn't let a man behave

knowledge that he had strange rider on his back.
