follow instructions and trust to
luck TO see her through. Whatever
happened IL could not be more ter
rlble than TO read disgust and disil-
fusion in Vereker Sarle's eyes.
She stole down the stairs like q
shadow and found a sleepy clerk
in the booking office. IL was sim
pie TO explain to him that she was
going away for a few days, but
wished her room kept on and every
thing left as IL was. She would
send a wire to say at what date she
would be returning. There was no
difficulty about the bill, for. fortu-
nstely, Beilew had supplied her
with plenty OF money, saying IL was
Dians's and that she would have
wished IL to be used. 1t was too
early far a taxi to be got, even by
telephoning. but the porter caught
a stray rickshaw that CHANGED to be
passing, and April had her first ex-
perience OF flying down hill behind
a muscular black man with feath-
ers in his hair and bangles on his
feet. Before she reached the sta
ton her veil and hair were in
steamers and her scalp was almost
torn from her head, but the ser
vitsls all night had ceased from
troubling, and Joy OF living glowed
in her once more.
She could not help it; there was
something in the air and the wind
and the blaze OF Africa that made
for life and thrust out despair. 1t
swept away misery as the south
easter had swept the skies, leaving
them blue and clean as a fawless
turquoise. ......... ...
Promptly Met.
She caught her train, and in
fate's good hour reached the Paarl.
which proved TO be a town of one
long street dec<ed with stately oaks
and mellowed old Dutch homes.
The mule cart was waiting for her,
and on the drivers seat a woman
with the austere features and blue,
pure visionary eyes OF. Galshad, the
stainless knight. She was dressed
in brooches and a SLOUGH hat; a
cigarette hung from the corner OF
her mouth, and she beckoned April
gladsomely with an immense sow
thong whip.
Come on. I was afraid you'd
shirk the early train, but I see
you're the stun. Hop in"
April did her best, but hopping
into a Cape cart that has both steps
missing takes some practice. The
mules did most of the hopping: she
scrambled. climbed, sprawled and
sprained herself all over before she
reached the vacant seat already en-
numbered with many parcels. With
a blithe crack of the whip and .
string of strange words flung like 4
challenge at her mules, Miss Connal
got under way.
The farm was six miles Off, but
| ere they had gone two April knew
| the painter as well as IL they had
! been twin sisters. Give Connal
hadn't a secret or a shilling she
would not share with the whole
| world. She used the vocabulary OF
a horse dealer and the slang Of a
schoolboy, but her mind was as
fragrant as a field that the Lord
hath blessed and her heart was the
| heart OF a child. 1t was shameful
to deceive such a creature, and
Aprirs nature revolted from the
act.
