with crooked elbow and knee against
veranda pillar. His keen aquiline
features and deep-set eyes We're lit up
by the moonlight and seemed scarcely
to belong to his great, lOose-jointed
frame. He was loose-jointed but like
fiail-strong and tough. There's
one thing about the purple cities" he
added, ''the daylight always beats you
to 'em jest like in the po'm." He
turned and went off to bed.
Gerry sat ON in the moonlight seized
by a strange sadness-the sadness the
spirit feels under the troubled hover
ing OF the unattainable and the mi
rage. Life had queer turns. Why
should a cowboy start out to look for
purple cities? 1t was grotesque on the
face of it but, beneath the face of 1t.
it was not grotesque.
Margarita stole out to seat herself
beside him. She slipped her hand into
his. She was worried. She was al
ways worried when Gerry's thoughts
were far away. "The Man." she said.
for thus she had christened her baby
boy from the day of his birth, the
Man sleeps. He cried for thee and
thou didst not come. So he slept, for
he ts man.

he smiled n smile of content 1T Is

wrinkled up. There was a gleam Of

about her and lit the color in her

Alan felt a sense of sudden insula-

waved at an approaching four-wheeler,
piled high with travelling kit and con-
voyed by his hurried but never flurried

But Glen stuck to her guns. "Real-

loaded cab and with arching eyebrows.
Then her smile burst again. You
can't expect me to be surprised, can
you? We seem to have a habit of
meeting when you are on the point Of
going away. There. You must be in
hurry. Good-by," and she held out
a gloved hand.
Alan's spirit was ever ready for war
and this, he suddenly perceived, was
war. He braced himself and smiled
too. "Twice hardly amounts to hab-
it." he drawled. He had never drawled

felt a sinking within him. For a
