OH" breathed Gracia. and then.
after a pause. she came Eearer and
leaned against the low wall beside
him.
II / would speak from my heart"
she asked, If / would talk plain. as
you Americans do, would you like me
better then? Would you talk to me
instead Of standing silent? Listen,
Bud-for that is your name-I want
you to be my friend the way you were
a friend TO Phil. know what you did
for him. and how you bore with his
love-madness-and that was my fault,
too. But partly it was also your fault.
for you made me angry by not coming.
Yes, | will be honest now-it was
you that | wanted to know at first, but
you would not come. and now | am
promised to Phil. He was brave when
you we're careful, and my heart went
out to him. You know how II Is with
us Mexicans-we do not love by rea,
son. We love like children-suddenly
from the heart! And now all | wish
in life is to run away to Phil. But
every time | speak OF 1t you shut your
Jaws or tell me | am a fool"
"Umpum," protested Bud, turning
stubborn again. Il tell you you don't
know what you're talking about. These
rebels don't amount to nothing around
the town, but on a trail they're awful.
They shoot from behind rocks and all
that. and a woman amt noways safe.
You must know what they're like
these old women don't think about
nothing else-so what's the use OF talk
ing! And BESIDES" he added grimly,
i've had some trouble with your old
man and don't want to have any
more"
What trouble have you had?" she
demanded promptly, but Hooker would
not answer in words. He only
shrugged his shoulders and turned
Macon beacon. [volume] (Macon, Miss.) 1859-1995, 1914-11-20
CHAPTER XIII.

There are two things, according to
the saying, which cannot be recalled
the sped arrow and the spoken word.
Whether spoken in anger or In Jest,
our winged thoughts will not come
back to us and, where there is no balm
for the wound we have caused. there
is nothing to do but let 1t heal.
Bud Hooker was a man OF few
words, and slow to speak Ill Of anyone,
but some unfamiliar devil had loosened
his tongue and he had told the worst
about Phil. Certainly II a mar were
the bravest Of the brave, certainly II
he loved his girl more than life itself
he would not be content to hide
above the line and pour out his soul
on note-paper. But to tell 1t to the
girl-that was an objectionable sinl
Still, now that the damage was done,
there was no use Of vain repining, and
after cursing himself intellectually
Bud turned In for the night. Other
days were coming; there were favors
he might do; and perhaps. as the yes
terdays went by. Gracia would forgive
him for his plain speaking. Even to-
morrow. II the rebels came back for
more, he might square himself In &c
ton and prove that he was not a COW
ard. A coward!
It had been a long time since any
one had used that word to him, but
after the way he had knitted dear
Phil" he had to admit he was It. But
dear Phil" 1t was that which had
set him off.
II she knew how many other girls
but Bud put a sudden quietus on that
particular line OF thought. AS long O.
the world stood and Gracia was in his
sight he swore never to speak Ill OF
De Lancey again. and then he went to
sleep.
The men who guarded the casa
grande slept uneasily on the porch
lying down like dogs on empty sugar
sacks that the women might not lack
bedding inside. Even at that they were
| better off, for the house was close an6
feverish, with the crying OF babies
and the babbling Of dreamers. ant
mothers moving to and fro.
1t al a hectic night, but Bud slep'
