APT XIV.

Life at the office went on much the
way it had always gone.
In spite Of their high resolve. there
was a very measurable degree of the
furtive in their meetings. In essence.
these meetings were stolen. They did
not ride out brazenly together in the
face of the world. On the contrary,
they mel always u%nobserved. she rid
ing across the many-gated backroad
from Berkeley to meet him halfway.
Nor did they ride on any save unfre-
quented roads, preferring to cross the
second range Of hills and travel among
a church-going farmer folk who would
scarcely have recognized even Day
light from his newspaper photographs.
He found Dede a good horsewoman-
good not merely In riding. but in en-
durance. There were days when they
covered sixty. seventy. and even
eighty miles; nor did Dede ever claim
any day too long. nor-another strong
recommendation to Daylight-did the
hardest day eve see the slightest
chafe of the chestnut sorrel's back.
"A sure enough hummer" was Day
lights s%tereotyped but ever enthusiast
tic verdict to himself.
His lifelong fear of woman had orig
mated out Of Misunderstanding ard
had also prevented him from reaching
any understanding. Dede on horsA-
back. Dede gathering peoples on =
summer hillside. Dede taking down
dictation in her swift shorthand
strokes-all this was comprehensive
to him. But he did not know the
Dede who 9 quickly changed from
mood to mood. the Dede who refused
steadfastiy to ride with him and then
suddenly consented. the Dede In
whose eyes the golden glow forever
waxed and waned and whispered
hints and messages that were not for
his ears. In all such things he saw
the glimmering profundities of sex,

He strove to pull himself together.
Il Just want to harder than anything
ever In my life before. Ill can't
explain myself. but l do, that's all.
VIII you-Just next Sunday? To
morrow"
Nor did he dream that her low &C
q~uiescence was due. as much as any
thing else. to the beads of sweat on
his forehead. his trembling hand and
his all ~too-evident general distress.
"Of course. there's no way of tell
ing what anybody wants from what
they say" Daylight rubbed Bob's re-
bellious a with his quirt and pom
dered with dissatisfaction the words
he had just uttered. They did not
say what he had meant them to say.
What I'm driving at is that you say
f~1atfooted that you won't meet me
again. and give your reasons. but how
am l to know they are your real rea-
sons? Mebbe you just don't want to
get acquainted with me. and won't say

wanted. And If l thought you didn't

me, why I'd clear out SO blamed quick

1t had been a happy day. Daylight

day drawing to a close and with them
