Court adjourned. Ronald spoke

would use the main entrance. She
did not know where the small
door, through which he was pass

Someone called to her as she
opened the gate that led to the
small enclosure where witnesses

her. She called him.
He turned, waited, saw who it
was that trailed him, and spoke
in surprise: "Judy! Where did
you come from ?"
Now that she was here it seemed
ridiculous, just as her errand of
mercy had appeared a few nights
ago when she had brought him
news of the slight, short man in
the rakish fedora.
"I've turned detective and I've
uneafthed some more news" she
said in a voice whose calmneSS
amazed her.
His grin was boyish and young.
IT was thinking about you, Judy.
I thought I'd call you up. In fact
I was cutting through here to get
to a pay telephone"
She must not use these words
as balm for her heart. Her status
had not changed. Deserted by the
girl he loved, Ronald had sought a
friend, that was all.
Where shall we go?" he asked
as simply as trusting child.
Judy choked on the lump of COM
passion that welled up in her
throat, so it was a moment before
she could answer. In the interim
he signaled a taxicab, helped her
in, sank down in a corner.

it tightly. She felt tremor pass
down his arm, the fingers loosened.
But as he put her hand back, he
said: "Don't go away, judy"
Away? Oh, that was the silent
prayer with which she had beer
beseeching him.
Where would I go?" she asked
aloud.

was so glad she could only nod,

came out with his arms filed with
bundles.

She cleared the wide sweep OF

"But you shouldn't, Ronald!

head swiftly.

His long, hard body was tense.
He spoke with added vigor, toss.

to fatigue.

him of the money.
She heard the patter of snow on
the top Of the cab, saw the play
of red and green where the traffic

smelled fish and salt air and noted
for the first time that the cab was
speeding along the wharves.

CHAPTER Al

NI1kAL 1hke "a
IN THE BANK, in Judy's name
there still reposed the money, un-
touched, which her father had de-
posted to her credit. She had re-
fused to accept the bankbooA
which belonged to the account
She had written no checks against
it.
But now the man she loved was
in danger, and pride was a foolish
barrier to any help that she could
give him. With money he could
trace the mysterious man in the
green fedora and plaid coat. With
money-with bitter shadow
across the smooth oval of her face
because money that should be SO
unimportant had such power to
save, protect, or destroy, she said:
IF YOU want me to take the
money stili, Il think it might buy
lots Of things I'd like"
Lots of things-Ronald's good
name. His belief in humanity.
His vision recaptured. The re-
ward for which he had sacrificed in
the lean. hungry years. Lots OF
things! Things of which her
father and Mr.. Heaton had no
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS they had not come
up through tribulation.
With the handbook and check
book in her handbag, Judy hailed
a taxicab and went to the court
house. 1t took little while to
discover in which room Ronald's
case was being tried. He was
speaking as she looked through a
crack in the door. An attendant
inotioned to her to come in, sit
quietly, not interfere with the nor
NAL procedure of justice in the
courts of the land. Justice! It
was misused word. She wanted
to laugh and she was going to cry.
But all she did, finally, was shake
;ler head, give the bailiff a watery
smile, and stand by the green
brass-studded door as the case
droned on.
How would she present the
money? Would she be able to
persuade Ronald that it was a
friendly loan such as she would
make to any friend in a crucial
moment? He would reject gift,
but a loan was so different! It
was purely a business proposition.
"A business proposition, prompted
by love, but he must never know
that. If he did, then he would
push it from him firmly and go
alone to seek his enemy. She must
be gay, nonchalant, pretending
that the trouble would be rooted
soon and they would laugh to-
gether.
But what if he said: Suppose
/ lose, Judy? What then? I
can't pay you back for years!"
Then she would say: But
that's all right. Can't friends
make gifts? What is friendship
worth 2"
And an of the time she would
be repeating over and over in her
heart, like you said silly rhymes
that stuck and wouldn't go away:
