its moorings under the sheds.
Miriam shrugged uncomfortably as
she made ready for her berth. know
ing that she would have to be reused
before daylight to leave the train at
Skagmore. but she soon fell asleep,
weary with the exertion OF getting
ready for the hurried trip and col.
lecting that basketful OF dollhouse veg
etables and Florida strawberries with
which she hoped to tempt her aunt's
truant appetite. In her dreams she
went back to the summer days of
year and half before when she had
roamed Skagmore's shady streets and
played many a lively game Of tennis
with Hilton Moore, who was there
for a whole month when clematis,
strawberries, roses and rasberries
followed each other In a competition
Of loneliness and lusciousness.
The train stopped with a jerk that
awakened Miriam, and she shiVered
slightly as with consciousness came
the memory Of the quarrel that had
ended that idyllic period Hilton had
gone back to the last year OF his med.

cousin, who was frankly amused at
the audacious way in which she haunt.

Miriam raised herself on her elbow
and looked out of the window as the
train stood painting at water station.
The hills were becoming white with
snow and the skies looked dark and
low. The prospect of arriving at Skag
more before daylight. alone and un,
expected and in a snowstorm, was not
pleasant, but Miriam dropped back in
to the warmth Of her blankets and
once more fell asleep. The next she
heard was the porter calling softly:
'Skagmore next! Awake, Lower
Three"
Half an hour later, she stood almost
knee deep in snow beside the tiny
station at Skagmore, while the Ions
black train pulled its way up the steel

and pale light at the eastern horizon
relieved the darkness, and as he
