And then they must pile out into
the street again so lost in woe that
they did not know how they were
trampled or elbowed. Marjorie's de-

Fortune relented a moment and
they found a taxicab waiting where
they had expected to find it. Once
more they were cosy in the flying
twilight, but their grief was their
only baggage, and the clasp OF their
hands talked all the talk there was.
Anxiety within anxiety tormented

The taxicab drew up and halted,
but they did not get out. They were
kissing good-byes, fervidly and nu-.

porter winked at the winking chauf-
feur.
Marjorie simply could not have
done with farewells.
I'll go to the gate with you,' she
said.

touched his cap, though it was not
his custom to allow strange fares to
vanish into crowded stations, leaving
behind nothing more negotiable than
instructions to wait.
