CHAPTER X
The Gracious Enemy.


Bright and early the next morning
Kenneth gave orders to have his new
home put in order for immediate occu-
pancy. Having made up his mind to
remain in Lafayette and face the con-
sequences that had seemed insurmount-
able the night before, he lost no time in
committing himself to the final resolve.
Meanwhile he rented an "office" on
the north side Of the public square,
small room at the back of a furniture
store, pending the completion of the
two-story brick block on the south side.
As he was hurrying away from the
tavern shortly after breakfast he en-
countered Lapelle coming up from the
stable yard. The young Louisianian
was in a singularly amiable frame of
mind.
Hello" he called out. Kenneth
stopped and waited for him to come up.
I'm of pretty soon for my place be-
low town. It's only about eight miles.
I want to arrange with Martin Hawk
for duck-shooting trip the end of the
week. He looks after my lean-to down
there, and he is the keenest duck hunt
er In these parts. Better come along"

voice or bearing. On the contrary, he
spoke in lofty, casual manner, quite
as II this perfunctory concession to
the civilities were a matter of form,
and was to be so regarded by Gwynne.

with me last night 1 cleaned 'em OUT
"You did, eh?"
"A cool two thousand" said the
other, with a satisfaction that bor-
dered on exultation. by the way,
changing the subject, I'd like to ask
you question. Has mother the
legal right to disinherit a son in case
said son marries contrary to her
wishes?"
Kenneth looked at him sharply.
Could it be possible that LaBelle's
mother objected to his marriage with
Viola. and was prepared to take dras-
tic action in case he did SO?
We'll. it would depend largely on
circumstances" said Kenneth, judicial
ly. Il doubt whether will would
stand in case parent attempted to
deprive a child of his or her share of
an estate descending from another
