She urged her pony through the
light timber growth and across the
little meadows where the rank grass
and strange v%aricolored flowers were
springing up under the urge Of the
warm spring sun. Twenty minutes
brought her to the clearing. Silk and
Satin and Niger, loafing at the SUNNY
end Of the stable, pricked up their ears
at her approach, and she knew that
Roaring Bill was home again. She tied
her horse to a sapling and drew nearer,
The cabin door stood wide.
A brief panic seized her. She. felt q
sudden shrinking, a wild; dasice: fog

knew that for good or ill she would
never turn back.
On the soft turf her footsteps gave
forth no sound. She gained the door

Bill faced the end of the long room, but
he did not see her, for he was slumped
in the big chair before the fireplace,
his chin sunk on his breast, staring
straight ahead with absent eyes.
In all the days she had been with
him she had never seer him look like
that. That weary, hopeless expression,
the wry twist of his lips, wrung her
heart and drew from her a yearnine
little whisper.
