CHAPTER Xxx

CHAPTER Xxx
1t was dream-it was ali
dream-like. The bare, busy room
with its grated window and the
business-hke man asking ques-
lions behind it. The yellow-haired
girl in the frankly cheap silk
dress, staring with open curos-
ity. The other giggling couples
and one staid; elderly group.
Boots signed her name; they
all went away in a taxi. Boots
had already. sent a telegram to
her parents. saying she was to
be married. She didn't know
she could not imagine how or
why things had come to pass in
this way. She hadn't expected to
be married in this fashion. What
her mother would feel, she did
not even dare to think. In the
back of her mind, however, was
the confused feeling that all old
scores were, thus being paid off
in Larchneck. She would not
have to go back, to face the
smiles and the patronage of her
enemies. She was free. Marriage
would set her fire.
The dream-like daze persisted
all through the hurried and brief
ceremony at a dingy uptown
church, whose denomination she
did not even trouble to learn
The minister was thin, anxious,
harried, and accepted his dona-
ton from Russ with an almost
pathetic show of gratitude.

I'm sorry" said Packy. you're
quite right"
He was full Of remorse. A nice
way, he felt contritely, to behave to
a girl who had gone to such pains to
get behind his spiritual self and push.
At Yale, where he had been educat-
ed, Packy Franklyn had been an ALL
America halfback, but he had tended,
he fully realized, rather to under
nourish his spiritual self. He had
given 1t the short end, and 1t was
missing, he knew, on several cylinders.
He was self-critic enough to be aware
that if there was a department in
which he could safely be sold short,
1t was the department Of the soul.
How ill it became him, then, not to
cooperate to the fullest extent with a
girl who was trying to jack it up.
Apart from her beauty, what had
fascinated him from the first about
Lady Beatrice Bracken was the
loftiness Of her ideals. When it came

Dorsetshire. and he had come to
Waterloo to see her OF.
She came in view now, walking dis
dainfully through the crowd like a
princess among the jacquerie, girl
so spectacularly beautiful that you
would have thought that even some OF
these perspiring parents with flve
children to look after might have
spared her glance. Beatrice'S was
a comeliness which had lent luster to
Biddlecombe Hunt balls. where come

to attract attention even in the royal
incloSure at Ascot.
At the moment, nervous irritation
was preventing her from looking quite
her best. If there was one thing she
disliked, it was having to travel by
train during the tripper season; and If
it was really necessary that she should
revisit the ancestral home to help her
father entertain his house party, she
thought he might have sent the car
for her But with gasoline at its cur
rent price, the level-headed old man
had been too smart for that.
A girl who seldom smiled, she greet

the upper lip which had come out so

Of increasing Beatrice's irritation.

the girl, sometimes made Packy think

been an enthusiastic yachtsman, "of
an auxiliary yawl, forty-five feet over

Il particularly want you to stay in

Her tone was final, and Packy eyed
her with dismay. He had been look
ing forward to that yachting trip.
But why?"
well, for one thing ="
She broke off and stopped to rub
an ankle which had just been kicked
by child named Ernie And at the
same instant there smote Packy
vigorously between the shoulder blades
one Of those hearty buffets which tell
us we have found friend. Turning,
he perceived a lissom young man with
green eyes and hair cut en- brosse who
beamed Upon him fondly.
! For moment, he was at a loss.
The others face, like his manner, was
! familiar; but, unlike his manner, only
vaguely so. Then memory awoke.
| "Veek!"
MY old Packy!"
It was eighteen months since Packy
had last seen that effervescent young
French aristocrat, the Vicomte de
Blissac. Mingled with his delight at
seeing him now was the feeling that
he wished the reunion could have
taken place a few minutes after the
departure OF Beatrice's train instead
of few minutes before. His friend
| ship with the heir of the De Blissacs
dated back to the brave old days In
New York, and something told him
that the other was going to start talk
ing about them. And experience had
taught Packy that where Beatrice was
concerned it was better to keep the
whole subject of the brave old days
a sealed book.
However, she had stopped rubbing
her ankle, so there was nothing to &C
but present this ghost of his dead
past.
Lady Beatrice Bracken. The
Vicomte de Blissac."
Beatrice bowed In her beautiful
eyes, as she did so, there was stony
look. Packy read its message. She
did not approve of the old Week.
1t was not often that Lady Beatrice
Bracken did approve of Packy's
friends. 1t sometimes seemed to her
that each was more repulsive and i'm
possible than the last. She herself
except for taste for the society OF
intellectuals, was exclusively County
in her intimacies. Packy, on the other
hand, as far as she had been able to
gather, seemed to like everybody. You
could never be sure when you met
him that you would not find him
hobnobbing with a prizefighter OF
