breakfast, he must meet-her. Re-
morse and jealousy struggled In him
with perverse pride. At any rate,
he would not run away. No, he would
face her. He would look into her eyes,
which would be shocked and hurt The
last embers of ruined existence
would shine through his own. Then,
after she had seen and realized, he
would go away forever and send her
Just one letter-no. just one flower
with his card-to let her know what
be had felt and what he had cast aside.
Then-since the human spirit is
never static-having touched the low
est depths. his thoughts began to rise
toward hope. Just how had be be-

him do? From the haze of confused
memories. a clear fact appeared in
this place and that. He had been
aware of her standing at the landing.
How had she looked? Somehow, he
could not remember her face. Why?
Because he had been looking at her
