When the night boat from Dover -
Calais slipped away from her moor
inGs that evening. Hetty Castletcn and
her maid were on board, with all their
bags and trunks, ana Brandon Booth
was supposed to be completely at sec
in the heart Of that glitterinS London
town.
The night was fogladen and drip
ping. and the crossing promised to be
unpleasant Wrapped in q thick sea-
ulster Hetty sat huddled up in the lea
Of the deckhouse, sick at heart and
miserable. She reproached herself for
the scurvy trick she was playing on
him, reviled herself and yet pitied her
self.
A tall man came shambling down
the narrow space along the rail and
stopped directly in front of her She
started in alarm as he reached out his
hand to support himself against the
deckhouse. As he leaned forward, he
laughed.
You were thinking of me. Hetty."
said the man.
For . long time she stared at him.
transfixed. and then. with q low moan,
covered her eyes with her hands.

sobbed.
