 After a while they were at the mountain cabin. and Row, with tears running down his yellow face, was helping them. Then they went into the old living room. and Alix was lying there, splendid, sweet. untouch ed, with her brave, brown forehead shadowed softly by her brown hair and her lashes resting upon her cheeks. and her fingers clasped about the stems of three great, creamy roses.
 There were other flowers all about and there were women in the room. White draperies fell with sweeping lines from the merciful yelling of the crushed figure, and Alix might have been only asleep, and dreaming some heroic dream that lent that secret pride and joy to her mouth and filled those closed eyes with a triumph they had never known in life.
 Peter stood and looked down at her. and the men and women drew back. But although the muscles of his mouth twitched he did not weep. He looked long at her, while an utter silence filled the room and while twi- light deepened into dark over the cabin and over the mountain above it.

He put his hand over the tigeriSh pain that was beginning to reach his heart. His throat felt thick and choked, and still he did not cry. "An hour ago." he said. eff it had been that the least thought of what this meant to you might have reached me an hour ago, it would not have been too late Alix, one look into your eyes an hour ago might have saved us all!
