CHAPTER III

Back in the Morgan house Marian
Morgan sat in Branford Wills room
watching him.
Ada Clark was having her supper
and Marian was on duty and an
noyed with the vigil. Illness fright
ened her, and this young man had
displeased her. She was not Of the
type to forgive easily. She sat on
the edge of her chair, ready to es-
cape as soon as possible.
Branford Wills had trouble with
his perceptions. They were febrile
and wild, they told him fantastic
lies. This girl was not there, Of
course.
He said, in a voice made dry and
strange by fever, you aren't real,
Of course. I'm sick as the deuce"
She came nearer. Decisions did

4 settlement gathered together on
the plain marks the place where
men paused, where they delayed
and rested. But a town under a
scarp, with foothold on the iron, hos
tile knees of the ranges, with quar-
reling streams gashing a roadway
past the Notwithstanding rise of a
ridge for a barbican, has something
valorous about it; cocky, self-con-
tanned, a little defiant.
Stanley Daniels, chemist for the
Morgan mill, lean and thirty, out of
the University of Missouri, with
young intolerance and the unbear-
able sting and surge of young ambi-
ton in his blood, felt and resented
this cool remoteness of the noun
tain town clustered about the mill.
He was in it and of it, he was Of
hill stock from the Ozark country,
yet this little town had never let
him in. He lived at a rambling
green house facing the main high
way and the railroad; a house need
ing paint, with a vast asparagus
fern on the porch and row of stiff,
Indifferent chairs around the wall
of the parlor, with five kinds of meat
set out in the long dining-room and
the linen not always clean.

When virgie Morgan. widow. and owner

chemical odors he brought in with
him. Her other boarders, widowers
torn up by the roots, judges and law
yers in court week, odds and ends
of detached humanity, were pleas
ant enough to him.
He was young man in the quiet
backwater of old lives drifted to-
gether. He let the elders admire
his youth and take the winds of life,
as they blow for youth, vicariously
in their faces through him, but he
never felt that he belonged.
He was bird alight, he was a
hawk in the wind, something alive
briefly, caught in the slow motion
of mountain mill village; sooner
or later he would be caught up in
a stronger current. But while this
hiatus in his life lasted he would
ease it by such gracious means as
came to his hand. And the most
gracious of these gifts was Lucy
Fields.
Lucy was tuned deep. She had
quiet splendors. She read a great
deal and thought great deal and
she was as foreign to her thin,
leather-skinned little mother, who
wore asafetida around her neck all
winter, as the moon is foreign to
a barnyard lantern.
Lucy still ached a little because
she had not been able to go to col
lege. She WINGED when her mother
said lover yan," or cleaned her dry
fngernails with the scissors. She
worked hard and believed that Vir-
gle Morgan was the finest woman
in the world.
Stanley Daniels was pleased by
Lucy, warmed by her admiration,
sensed the fine gold under the quiet
shyness, generously let her 60 on in
cubating little dreams about him
while he waited, cannily, commit
ting himself to nothing, waiting for
whatever more splendid offering life
might be saving for him.
When the whistle moaned at five
o'clock he waited for her. She was
always conscientiously little late.
She dabbed about, busted, licked
stamps, hated hurrying out of the Of
fee. Usually Virgie or Tom had to
shoe her out.
Get along home, Lucy-your
beau won't wait out there all night
in this raw weather."
The wind dragged at Lucy's skirt
and made her thin silk hose feel like
coatings Of ice on her legs as she
went down the cinder road to the
gate. But at the sight of Stanley
Daniels, hunched in sheltered spot,
warmth flooded her body, sang in
her blood, made her cheeks burn
and her eyes grow bright.
ooh, hello!" The wind caught at
her voice but could not chill the
shine of her eyes. Were you wait
ing for me? You must be absolutely
stiff. Let's walk fast"
Daniels fell briskly into step. SIS

tolerated no weakness and never
known the meaning of surrender.
Bry Hutton telephoned and she
answered him CURLY, while Lossie
stared and listened from the kitch-
en-. No, she said, she didn't want
to 60 out. No, she wasn't mad about
anything. She was just not inter-
ested.
Virgie Morgan drove up the noun
tain road toward Hazel Fork on a
foggy winter morning. The road
was narrow and rutted with out
cropping boulders that raked the
crank-case of the old truck. Stumps
banged the hubcaps on either side.
Frost oozed from the ground, max
ing a gravy-like sludge over the
still-frozen iron of the mountain
slope.
She drove slowly and alone. Her
booted toe prodded the granting old
engine. She wore riding trousers
and a leather coat left open at the
throat.
The truck overheated on the stiff
grade and she waited for the engine
to cool, getting down and trampling
the grass, counting the spruce seed
lings that were near at hand.
Then behind her on the twisting
one-way road, she heard the labored
piston-slaps of another straining
motor.
Somebody's lost" she said aloud,
trampling on her starter. The truck
tangled as the other car came I'D
behind and stopped with a choked
gurgle. A black car, heavy and ex-
pensive, with two strange men in it.
Virgie pulled out of the ruts, her
old engine walloping, got out and
walked back. 49,. t-

said. ''This is nothing but a woods

He had, SO Marian noted, absurd
ly slender, graceful hands. One nail
was broken, it snagged the blanket.
Marian brought the scissors.
Hold still till I fix this"
The twitching heat in his fingers
disturbed her. She brought a cool
cloth and sponged his palms and
the backs of his hands where the
tendons stood up and thin, dark hair
grew. She felt queerly motherly
and tender as she covered the hands
with a blanket.
For a year she had laughed at
men, evaded them, taken what they
had to offer-dances, new cars to
ride in, flowers, candy-but so far
the men had all been alike. One
careless word, one relaxed moment,
the guard down for an instant, and
they were all alike. Country boys
with too much blood in their veins.
But this man did not grip her
fingers hard nor look meaningly up
into her eyes. He whispered, THANK
you," when Marian Strengthened the
pillow, and her heart gave curious
jerk.
When Ada Clark came back, Mar
ian went downstairs and wandered
aimlessly through the rooms. The
windows were dark and beyond the
black glass the mountain night was
cold and lonely, but the dark lone
illness suited her mood. Was this
falling in love? She stiffened against
that thought. Love was weakness,
love was surrender-and she was Of

policeman arrived here a few min- utes before the main procession they went straight north on Main street and some spectators feared the whole procession would proceed up Main street, to save time, instead of goilng over Maple street, but it did not do so.
 Many spectators were struck by MT. Willkie's size. Big and husky, he smiled and waved affably as he rode by. One youngSter was heard to mutter, Gee, I wish he was on our footbal team"
 The high school band did itself proud, rendering number of selec- tions while waiting for the candidate and playing when he arrived.
 Grammar schools were not closed for afternoon sessions as it had been thought MT. Willkie woud have arrived here long before the after noon classes were to start. How ever, many youngsters stayed out to see the candidate and some did not bother to return to school.
 One got the fleeing, watching the crowd milling, showing, cheering, gaping that although some might call it "slnall-town stuff, it is peo- pie like these in thousands of other small towns in the nation that help to make the nation the great coun- try it is.
 Naugatuck. Oct. 10 - Wendell Willkie exchanged handshakeS with only one man here yestreday, this being Sergeant Anthony Farrar of the police department who halted the Willkie car momentarily to per- init a presentation of a corsage to Mrs. Willkie.
 MT. Willkie did not know the ser geant of course and probably never suspected that only few minutes before, the sergeant had saved him from a possible vegetable shower.
 Sergeant Farrar, in charge of a group of four policemen at the Green where the main part of the crowd was congregated, was on the alert to keep order, and noticed a boy with bulging pockets. Investiga- tion showed the youngster had two tomatoes in his pockets and that he had been bragging about intending to throw these at the Republican presidential nominee.
 The sergeant took the boy to the police station where he was given a severe reprimand and later released. So when MT. Willkie shook the seer geant's hand it was deserved ges- ture.

 Many picked vantage points to see the procession but four resi- dents can really claim they looked down on the presidential nominee. They were located near the flagpole on the town hall.
 Others were in trees and office windows were crowded along Maple street. Some perched on anto tops and the roofs of part of the Gen. tral office and also the roof of the building in which the Conn. Light and Power company office Is To- cated had a number of specta- tors on them.
