Z her heels. She had waited UNI
til Donna had been with Con
several minutes before entering
the cemetery.
To her chagrin she had been
unable to hear what they said.
Much as her ears burned to catch
the words, she had not dared to
move closer. But. in spite of the
obscuring darkness and the fall
| ing snow. she did see Cons arm
around Donna's shoulder and her
righteous soul boiled over with
indignations as such "goingS-
on"
She had hoped Bill also would
be witness to the meeting,
but she did not see him any
where. One thing was certain,
she had gagged Madeline Siddal
correctly. The girl was a
"hussy," unfit for decent folks
to associate with, and before an
! other "a hours went by not only
Bill Siddal but everyone in Leb-
anon was going to know about
it,
But what could folks expect
/ of a circus girl, who probably
never attended services until she
found it paid to do so? A girl
who had married her own cou-
sin! Well, half-cousins were too
close kin to make marriage what
it should be. Mrs. Planter would
have felt more sympathy for Bill
when he learned the truth If nc
had not been a party to such a
Goddess deed
She waited until the man and
woman had gone on about 80
wards. Then she gathered the
shabby folds of her coat about
ther and began to run in the OPP
Iposite direction. If that lazy
Jamie hadn't started supper
there'd be the old Nick to pay.
Jobs weren't so plentiful that
Mrs. Planter wanted to chance
losing hers, even in doing her
duty towards the community.
She wished she could have
found out where Madeline and
that circus fellow went after they
| left the cemetery but, after all,
that didn't matter much.
Gonna and Con passed no one
on their way to the car. Donna
climbed in and unlocked the en-
CINE, then held out her hand.
LETS part friends. Con. For the
sake of Madeline. | know you

"I'm going with you," he an

hand.

"There isn't any to come to.

She switched on the engine and,
with a sputter, the car leaped
forward. 'I'll drive you to the
corner of the square. Then Pm

"And try to induce the old
man to change his will?"

Lumpkin may develop much more
strength later on than he now
seems to have. McEachern is
expected to have the support Of
the agricultural bloc as well as
of many other groups. In both
the 1881 and 1888 sessions he
put up a stiff fight for more
efficient state department CT

have to hurdle if he gets TO
become speaker, will be the on
position of Graham, who is ex-
pected to exert all the political
influence he has-and it is re-
garded as being probably more
formidable than that of any 9TH
er state official-to defeat Nc
Eachern. For McEarchern was
chairman Of the house committee
on agriculture in the 1888 ses-
sion which tried to get through
several bills to reorganlze Ora
hams department and deprive
him of the almost autocratic
power he holds as head of it.
Most of these bills were effec-
tually stopped in the senate, how
ever, where Commissioner Ora
ham seemed to have more friends.
Lumpkin has served in the
house longer than either John
son or McEachern, having been
there continuously since the 1929
session. He is also lawyer and
considerably younger than the
other two candidates. In both
the 1929 and 1881 sessions he
was regarded as being one of
the more radical members of the
the ECONOMY at any price
group" and of the "get the
money where the money isl that
followed the lead of Angus A.
MacLean of Beaufort county and
of Josephus Daniels. In the 1888
session, however, Lumpkin gave
evidence of having quieted down
considerably and was more con-
sentative, although he was still
closely identified with the east
ern rural bloc and the drastic
economy group though he finally
broke away from the more ex-
IRENE Tam Bowie bloc.

asmuch as he is reported to have
had a majority Of the ncmbers
of the 1888 house pledged to
support him for speaker in 1888
and because he IS expected to
have the support of his klnss-
man, State Treasurer Charles M.
Johnson, conceded to be politi-
callv potent in great many
sections of the state. There is
no Doubt that Johnson has some
excellent backing and that he IS
going to make a strong run Tor
the speakership. But the fact
that apparently not more than
80 members of the house IN the
1888 general assembly Will re-

Con drawled sarcastically. He

Donna knew it would take the
better part of an hour to reach

could he prove if he did go?
And to say she had committed a

But if he should go to Bill
she would lie. Lie to the last
breath! Oh, God, if only she
had never become tangled in such
a mesh of lies. The truth SEEM

How could she account to Bill
for her silence during all those
weeks when he had hesitated to
ask her to marry him because ne
believed they were related? Bill
would find that harder to forgive

knowledge of Madeline's death

In her dismay Donna forgot
that Con himself was an enemy.
