of the parting, especially under the
circumstances. She longed 10 stretch

her hopes and fears to him as she
had been able to do in the past. She
ached with some strange pain that
was in every part of her being. II

hugely indefinite, yet sickeninsly

On the outskirts of the settle

and Henry Gay to so on and be
quick. as it was getting late. Then
she walked up and down restlessy,
smiling now and then as the happy
laughter of her small brother and
his sharp exclamations of delight
smote her ears. He. at least, was
happy with their expedition.
They were not gone very long and
Ilona drew a sigh of relief as the
