Could this brief contact with her
have evoked in him a far-buried
something which had never before

it have been anything resembling
aspiration that had glimmered so
palely out of an ordered and sordid
commonplace personality which,
with all its talent for frivolity, he
had accepted as his own?

She went into the deserted draw

sat down on the rug by the fire.
The music was still strewn over the
floor where Calligan had left II. The
song she. had refused to play was
uppermost. Its words floated into
her mind mournfully:
The hour that comes softly
To women and men,
Who only know thereafter
That they were happy-thenr'
She leaned her chin in the palm
Of her hand and looked into the
glowing heart of the fire.
Something in the leaping flames
and the silence made her think of
that last night at the Highway
House when she had left the note
for Philip. The night had seemed
like the first decided step leading
on to the final tragedy. Even now
she WINGED as she thought Of that
moment when she had waited for
him and waited in vain.

Calligan read the words aloud.
Fine, aren't they?" he said.

her head
Not that-I-don't care for 1t

He took II away at once. He felt
that he had unconsciously stumbled
on some memory. He went down on
his knees and began turning over
the pile OF music on the floor.
Eva sat watching him, her hands
idle In her lap.
There was a step in the hall

Eva went out to speak to one OF
