 CHAPTER XLVI
 Hang it all," Dr. Robertson thought. ''Why didn't I think of the telephone before?" He stepped in- side . booth and dialed the Comer- on number. Dialed 1t twice. He could hear the. insistent buzz. weren't the people at home? Why didn't somebody answer?
 The telephone shattered the still- mess at the Cameron home. Nancy heard 1t ringing. Why didn't Dana answer? It would be Ronnie call- ing to say he was coming for her.
 Nancy finally decided that Dana did not intend to heed the call. She stepped into the hall and lifted the receiver from the hook. Some man, not Bonnie, was asking for Dana.
 Just 6 moment, please" Nancy said.
 with her hand over the mouth piece, Nancy called: "It's for you, Dana"
 aPlease take the message" Dana said from the door, where she was securing the fastenings of her dress.
 Nancy said "Hello," again, and then there was 8 long silence. Then Nancy faltered, "Of course"
 A queer uneasiness came over Dana.
 Nancy" she said. something has happened. Tell me, please Oh Nancy, please, is it Scott?"
 "Yes," Nancy said, there's been an accident. It was St. Armand's hospital calling"
 Dana's face had been drained of color, her lips twitched. Her eyes held a pitiful horror. "The key to the car," she whispered.
 Tn the bowl on the hall table" Nancy said.
 A moment later Dana brushed by her. She was bareheaded, with her coat on her arm.
 Nancy stood still. She could hear the car being backed down the drive. She thought, "Gran must have been absorbed not to recog- nize those rattles."
 Gran would probably have tried Go stop her. But nothing could have stopped Dana.
 She thought of Dana's colorless face. Her own face was warm with excitement. She had not told Dana everything, that Scott was all right. The doctor had explained that Scott was operating on some body who had been hurt in the accident.
 Perhaps I should have told her. She would have gone though, any way" Nancy thought. The fact remained that she hadn't. She had sent Dana away, suffering terribly, because she had wanted to be sure she would go. And Bonnie was coming. He was due any minute now. There was his ring. Nancy was trembling. What could she tell him? But somebody had to tell him something! Her grandmother called, Tt must be Bonnie. It's time for him. Nancy, will you go to the door? That new cook is so crude. Will you entertain him a few minutes, until" Grandmothers voice had broken in the middle of the sentence. Nat urally, she was all excited over getting Ronnie for grandson.
 "Yes, Grandmother" Nancy an- swered mechanically.
 The dining room door closed. Be- hind 1t, grandmother would be standing for a moment, pleased and proud. When she heard Ronnies voice. she would go on with her preparatiaons, determined that his first meal here would be properly and beautifully served.
 She didn't know Ronnie wouldn't be here for dinner. And there wouldn't be any wedding either.
 She opened the front door, and Bonnie came in. Bonnie. Nancy saw, was looking sober, as though he had already learned that he had been deserted "at the altar" as old fashioned love stories always put 1t.
 Hello, Nancy Ronnie spoke
