STORM

4 WEEK later the storm broke.
1t had been rising slowly for
days. heralded by many spasmodic
rat.a-tat-tats of Quick-rising angry
'downpours. AlIaire knew something
was wrong. Corrigan and Willett
went about stern and silent, and
even the chattering Chaikis felt that
horrible presage of the season gath
Iering itself for one final blast.
The river rose and rose, angry
and black. spreading a thick Shiny
silt over the ground for yards
around near the banks, and then one
night the storm burst, caught up
with its messengers. and spread all
over them.
All that night the storm rode
viciously over mans handiwork,
and all the next day. The air was
very warm and close, but there were
beads of perspiration on Allaire's
brow that were cold and not caused
tby the weather. Had she picked up
the fever, she wondered?
What a time to worry Willett
when he was faced with crisis. But
she had to admit to herself that she
didn't feel well, and when Willett
suddenly caught up his REFER and
went outside. she decided to go to
bed.
