softly, ''some otter drink, mean?"
Kemp's quicl eye roved over the
group. He saw that nobody was TAX
ing anything bHt tea and at the same
time he noted gratefully that nobody
was watching him. The judge and
j. Y. were talking to each other.
Nance, junior, and Cousin Tom were
kneeling before Gerry, junior, stolen
for a short hour from Alix. That
dwarf Molocl, arrayed in starchy
white that stuck out like ballet skirt
above his STURDY, fat legs, was gravely
devouring sacrifice Of cake. Charlie

Kemp could feel scene; his strange
nature was moved at finding itself
rubbing elbows with such group
and when Kemp was moved he al
ways talked to hide his emotion. Mrs.
J. Us kindly eyes led him on, made
him feel werdly akin to those quiet,

and swept over the scene again.

and then Alan remembered Red Hill.
"Where are you staying, Kemp9"

Alan looked at his watch "Come

We've just got time to rush down and

"What for2' drawled Kemp.

the country when found you. We've
got just forty minutes to catch the

A wary look came into Kemp's eyes.
"Your folks out there, Mr.. Wagner"
he asked.
"Yes," said Alan, and then added,
"Nemp, do you take me for a man that
would steer you up against a game

then found himself hated and hurried
into taxi before lie could further pro-
test.
If Alan had any gualms about intro
ducing Kemp Ito Red Hill they were
soon allayed. Kemp was duly present
ed on the lawn at Maple House. To
everything in iettlcoats he took of his
hat and said 'ma'am," but before the
men he stood hhtted and vouchsafed a
short "HowdyC accompanied by a
handshake where it was invited.
Strange to Kemp must have seemed
the group of which he found himself
the center. At tea table under the
biggest maple sat Mrs. ]. Y. She called
Kemp and motioned to a chair beside
her. Kemp let his hnky frame down
slowly on the fragile structure, took of
his domed hat and laid it on the grass
at his side. For an instant Mrs. J. Y
fixed her soft myopin gaze on him and
then looked away. Glen brought him

Alix.
She was almost glad when he devel-
Oped some trifling aiIment becoming

tine Alix came, frightened. Alix was
like a wilted flower. but she braced
herself until Gerry, junior, recovered
into his healthy self. Then she dropped
once more and refused to be COM

If it had not been for Alan, Alix'
trouble would have cast gloom over
the rest of Red Hill, but it was known
that Alan had sought out Mrs. Ian
sing and told her that not even he
knew just how Gerry's battle stood,
but that he did know that there was
battle and that Gerry would surely
come back as soon as he had fought
his way clear.
SO the Hill in general went almost
untrOubled on its way trying to forget
that it was still awaiting a fulfilment,
