without replying, Cain steered to
the side OF the road and stopped the
car in the shade Of a huge oak tree.
Mildred stepped TO the ground and
walked around the trunk Of the tree
and seated herself beneath it's ma ssive
branches. Cain followed her and
threw himself at her side. The battle
ground she had chosen was where
there was an open space in the forest
Of trees and where "A view could BE-
had for miles 20 the west Below them
rolled a valley two or three miles in
width and then the ground gradually
rose until II ended in the tall peaks n

that raced overhead threw shadows

throwing the panorama into never

her.

delight to me-" she murmured. There
is always something new TO see, diff

Cain from his gloomy reflections. The
beauties OF nature had no charm for
him.
