1t seemed to Rosemary, knee

they had never reached her,
they had never known her. They
had been too busy needing her,
using her, sapping her strength.
She hadn't had time to let
them know her, there was so
much to do in the house, what
with the three meals, and the
lunches, and Franks silk shirts,
and the hot epson salt COM

No wonder she hadn't had
time to have her sick appendix
taken out.
Too late now. The last little

away. Each one was counted.

People came. tracking muddy

Without her the house was

But her final waking thought
that night was not Of Beverly
Greenway. IT was OF Martin
Cole and his pathetically lost ex.
preston when he had looked for
Willowdean and failed to find her.
Beverly Greenway was out of
town for q week or more. A
timberland deal in which his firm
was interested had summoned
him, very reluctant, to the North
west. At first he had declared
violently to Derry that he wouldn't
go; he wasn't going to leave her.
