 The dictatorial note in his voice annoyed her.
 ''Poof, poof," she laughed over her shoulder. If you can make it. I guess I can, too."
 And with that, in a. spirit Of bravado. she cracked her whip and brought it down on the horse s flank, urging it forward
 Down the grassy bank it plunged, tossing it's head and quivering it's oagerness as it gathered forces for the spring. A moment--and it was over-but in making the oppo- site bank it's hoofs slipped in the mud and 1t fell, bringing Barbara to the ground
 At first she appeared unhurt by the fall, but when she tried to rise, she discovered that she had twisted her ankle. She tried to laugh about it, assuring the man that it was of no consequence. Henderson picked her up in his arms and set her on her horse
 Sure it doesn't hurt too much?' said the man solicitously.
 Sure" she assured him. But, of course, it did hurt.
 It felt as though red hot pokers were being jabbed continuously into her ankle and she found herself longing for Ray.
 She wanted Ray to fuss over her, to pet her and to tell her how in- ordinarily brave she was being.
 She kept urging her horse on, im- patient to be back. In her minds eye she could see Ray rushing for ward to take her down off her horse after which he would carry her up the wide staircase and into their bedroom.
 The grooms were waiting to meet them. But nowhere could she see Ray and it was Henderson finally who carried her into the hall.

 Poor little lady" said the major with some sentiment as he pulled at his moustache. She ought 10 have had more sense than to marry musician. What can one expect of fellow who spends his life toot- ing a blasted horn?"
 Upstairs in her room, a white, bedraggled Barbara was crumpling a sheet of paper into little hard ball in her hands. Across it Ray had scrawled in his large, untidy writing:

 "P. S.-Make my excuses to Henderson. Tell him that King George called me up for pri- vate addition, if you like"
 Barbara flung the note furiously into the wastepaper basket, her cheeks burning with the intensity of her rage. How dare he treat her in that casual manner! So furi- ous wos she in that moment that she wanted to do something des- perate: throw vase through the or break up every stick of furniture in that room.
