He was gone. Barbara stared
after him helplessly. then pulled
herself up with a jerk.
She turned toward the tent-like
hospital that had been rugged up a
few feet away. She was still moving
in a daze. The shouts and multi
tudinous sounds of the place blended
in a confused murmur. She walked
warily, constantly fearing what her
eyes might light upon.
At last she saw 1t They were lift

Barbara came upon them without
warning.
1t was her first sight of death
and death without the palllating In
fluence Of roses and satin and
hushed solemnity.
For a second she closed her eyes
and stood still. Again the thought
og Armageddon flashed into her
mind. All earth and heaven would
some day go out like this, she
thought--each mans heaven and
earth all in an instant.
She looked again. This time she
did not close her eyes. She gulped
a long draught of fresh air. gr'tted
her teeth and went on. us there
anybody alive in that coach?" she
asked one of the workers.
The man did not raise his head.
Couldn't say, MISS" he replied.
Barbara peered fearfully through
the windows Of the wrecked car
riages. Nothing was to be seen save
darkness within. She hurried to-
ward the improvised hospital. A
brawny nurse blocked her progress,
but an explanation Of Barbara's mis-
sion gained a reluctant permission to
enter.
When she emerged, her face white
and her hands gripping a sheaf of
scrubbed notes, 1t was Is minutes
after ten.
She hurried up the long line Of
coaches. turning her head away from
the wreckage. Up the line, work
men were still chopping through de-
bris and helpers were carrying
stretchers away.
Barbara looked around for Bob.
He was not In sight. At last she
