in his library to tell him of his feel
ing for his daughter. The news was
not precisely shock to him, for the
change in Virginia since the advent
of this young man had been obvious
to all. Henry was personable and
likeable young fellow, it was true,
and from many things that George
and Lefty had casually let drop, he
had learned that Henry's social back
ground was unquestionable, and that
he had sound financial position.
But his wish for an almost i'm
mediate marriage was something OF
shock, not only because of losing
his daughter so suddenly. Was it ex-
pedient for two young people to take
such a serious step on such a brief
acquaintance?
On the other hand, hadn't Virginia's
own mother defied her parents when
they had assumed a like cautious at
titude, declaring that she would go
with her lover-would marry him and
follow him barefoot to the ends of
the earth, even if he hadn't got a
nickel! !
John Randolph told Henry of the
privations and trials he and his girls
mother suffered in their early mar
ried life, through the intolerance and
antagonism of her parents.
Virginia is like her mother" he
said gently, land l do not want you
to make any of the blunders which l
made in the early stages of our mar
riage. Virginia can be reached only
through her affections. She has
heart of gold. The key to her char
acter is love. She can be led but not
driven! She is high-spirited and i'm
pulsive. She inherits her mothers
sensitiveness and imagination. The
little things count largely with Vir-
ginia. She can surmount the big
things-she can rise to any difficulties
but where her affections are involved,
she is sensitive to an extreme. Some

Silence was on the pair. AS with
one accord they stopped at the far END
of the garden, leaning over a wicket
gate. Virginia had plucked beau
tiful white rose. Her eyes were down
cast as she nervously pulled at it's
petals.
Came the voice Of Henry in her
ear, as each petal fell to the ground:
"He loves me! He loves mel! He
loves me!", very tenderly.
Her heart raced. Her breath
caught. She felt as though she were
fainting with happiness. AS the last
white petal fell, the young man took
Virginia in his arms, tilted her face
up, and reverently kissed her. High
er and higher, as though waited on
waves of enchanted sound that was
a benediction, the music from the
darby quarters increased in volume.
Words were unnecessary between
these two. He held her tighter.

She gave a little breathless gasp.
She said: "Oh-anywhere you say

Gravely, from his pocketbook, he
took out a tissue-wrapped ring. 1t

death, twelve years ago, he had car

years had touched it.

little slight from one she loves may
become tragedy in her eyes.
Radiant with happiness, Henry at
the time was so carried away that he
barely took in the import of this
speech.
But later on, those words of John
Randolph were to come back to Henry
Van lyle like warning and pro-
phetic bells. -.
The Kentucky Derby presented a
scene of unrivaled gaiety and beauty,
Virginia. radiant vision in pale
blue gown and hat that set off her
slender figure and coloring to per-
fection-clung to Henry's arm, her
feet on air, her spirits bubbling.
She was engaged! To the hand
soonest, most adorable man in the
world-and soon she would be his
wife-on her way to Europe for
honeymoon!
Chotty, who was with George, was
generously elated with her friends
good luck, though her loudvoiced con-
gratulations had not been entirely I'M
selfish. If Virginia could do so well,
why couldn't she? Immediately she
had heard the great news, Chotty had
exacted a promise then and there that
Virginia would invite her for an in
definite stay in New York where
On Park Avenue (that Gold Coast!
thought Chotty)-she would meet sim
ilarly fascinating young millionaires
among Henry's associates.
Mentime, she was getting the kick
of her life at the Derby over what APP
peared to be a happy forerunner of
what life would be like in the Big
City! All those well-dressed, good
looking men, many of whom Henry
nodded to! Chotty saw herself in
town, grabbing off the best of them!
She was thrilled to the marrow.
Virginia herself was surprised at
the number of smart people who greet

ed Henry as an old acquaintance. She
couldn't help tiny twinge-no, it
wasn't jealousy-at cordial greetings
and bright glances flung from glor-
iously dressed women in Henry's di-
rection.
Of course he was so handsome, so
debonair, everyone must admire him.
And he was hers-all hers! Her
heart glowed proudly, possessvely.
After the first couple of races, she
happened to find herself with George
and went to place a bet.
Chotty, laughing and chatting with
Henry at the moment, was observed
by a well-known New York gossip
nicknamed Daffodil.
Daffodil approached Chotty and
Henry, and was introduced casually
by the latter. Chotty was at once

CHAPTER V

Henry, with great amusement, was
witness to this. At the turn of the
road he met Virginia, her diminutive
cavalier tightly clutching her immacu
late white linen breeches from be-
hind.
Henry gave her blithe greeting.
She laughingly explained the pres
ence of the little negro, saying, that
should she abandon him, the bigger
boy would Immediately give him the
huge bundle again. Henry's already
strong feeling for her was deepened
by her kindness and craftsmanship.
Forgetting all about the little cavalier
they rode slowly along together.
These were enchanted moments.
There in the bright sunshine, the tang
of the woods in their nostrils, the
pungent smell of Towering shrubs
about them, they seemed utterly at
tuned to Nature and to each other.
When they neared the house, Chot-
ty came out to greet them and col
ored man took their horses. When
Virginia had dismounted and was run
ming up the porch steps to make
quick change for luncheon-Henry
having accepted an invitation to stay
-Chotty went into peals of laughter
over the imprint of four tiny black
hands on the back of Virgini's breech-
es! SO absorbed had she been in
Henry that she had quite forgotten
her tiny companion on the horse. He
was standing shyly behind the groom
who-on her orders-took him off
to kitchen premises, for food.
In the next few days, which passed
on golden wings, Henry found innum-
cradle pretexts to be with Virginia.
The attraction between them develop
ed with great rapidity. He was like
a schoolboy in his eagerness over this
girl. Utterly different to the New
York type of his particular "set," her
freshness of viewpoint and her UNI
sullied charm opened a new perspec-
tive to him.
His friend, George was divided be-
tween sympathy for Henry's feeling
and natural caution. These sudden
affairs aldom lasted. Their roots
didn't go deep enough. Cautious bach
elor that he was, he had no belief
in love at first sight. He had seen
too many heartaches, too many mar
riages go on the rocks, to be any,
thing but sceptical.
Yet he envied Henry his romantic
dream-even as he cautioned him.
On the fifth evening after their ar
rival, Henry and Virginia strolled
down the path through the rose gar
den, when the birds were making their
last sleepy twittering in the tall old
trees, and the perfume of thyme and
rosemary and myriad flowers and
herbs mingled with the roses in one
fragrant bouquet.
The young moon hung frailly in the
sky. 1t was a night for love. From
the darby quarters came faint strains
of music.
