It was the right thing to do, and
they deserved it. The committee
was very affable, shaking hands
with Mr. Bassett, the director, and
Miss Saunders, the star, who, in
her pages dress with the paint still
on her face, looked tired. poor girl,
but was so sweet and ~unassuming.
The feet of boats, rocking gently
on the narrow channel that sepa-
rated Gull island from the main
land. took on their freight and
darted off. They started in groups,
then broke apart. The launches
skinned, light-winged, the white
furry of their wakes like threads
that stretched back to the island.
Part of the fiotilla carried the
Hayworth villagers-all-year resi-
dents of the little town on . the
mainland. Some of the more solid
citizens were in the launch that
old Gabriel Harvey owned, which
had been used by the actors in
their weeks stay. Hayworth had
gathered a great deal of informa-
ton about these spectacular visit
ors, some from Gabriel and some
from Sara Pinkney, who was Mr..
DriscOll's housekeeper. Every day
she came over to Hayworth for
supplies and had to appease the
local curiosity. which she did
grudgingly, feeling her power.
Now at last the Hayworth peo-
Pile had had a lrst-hand view Of
the actors-the whole company,
dressed up and performing-and

He slid down from the table and
stood in front of her. his hands out,
stretched, as he had the evening be,

disquieted. 1t was like having an

She pushed the hand away. but did
not finish the sentence. Instead, she
rose from the chair and started to-

her cours,,, for no conscious reason
and went over to one of the windows.
where she stood with her back to-
