the look of determination on

Kay wondered what she would
say when she found Barry, espe-
cially If she should find him with
Jetta- That he had run away from
their wedding was undeniable. but
there must have been a powerful
motive back Of his flight. What
ever it was must have been put
behind him now, and he undoubt-
eddy would greet her as he always

and an affectionate kiss.

knew she was going to see him
