CHAPTER FORTY-THREE

O'iH EN- FpiN
1T WAS hot in New York in
July, but New York wa home. The
doctor said that Halle was wen
enough tt return and the heat
would not hurt the baby, who now
was SIX weeks old. The baby Wa a
thin little thing She didn't gain
weight as she should and that was
another reason why Halle was
where she could have a baby Sp,-
cIallSt care for her. She called her
Letitia. That was Eric's mothers
name. 1t seemed quite a long one
for such . tiny bit of humanity.
1t was a wrench to leave the big,
chintz room in Vermont. There
would be no more lazy, long sunny
days under the shade trees on the
lawn, with endless eXpanses OF
blue and white above. There would
be no more evening symphonies Of
tiny night sounds. She would miss
Minerals strange clucking over
the baby and, she admitted this
without reservation: she WOULD
miss Wins Kindness, his dry nu-
NOR, his companionship. There was
a routine and regularity about life
in the big house in East L.yubrook
that gave a pattern to living.
The days began early when she
breakfastod with Win in the sunny
dining room and ended with their
good night before midni9ht.
Meals were on time, each Day had
its tasks and evening was Just the
end of a pleasant day. one d;da't

nave someone in to pass the time.
1t was quite different from New.

Each day saw its accomplish

Halle felt she ought to have been
delighted, but when she saw it, she
thought: How much did it cost -
What would they use for money?
Dr.. Foster, the baby specialist on
Park avenue, said that he WoulC
want Mrs. Adams to bring hei
baby to him to be looked over

I'm tell you all about it when the
baby gets veil"
Halle didn't say anything for a
long time and then. tonclesslv, she
said. The baby ISM guin. 10 pot
well. If l could only breath life INTO
her again Her voice broke.
Win turned away bliudly from
the door.
Eric ran his fingers through his
hair. I'm going outside tor a
smoke, he mmsrIcd.
No one stopped him. Minerva
spoke not one word to him.
1t was 4 o'clock that morning
when the dame nickcred out. The
baby gave a tiny sigh and the light
was cXtn2uished forever.
Halle knew. It was as If her own
heart gave that gentle sigh and
then died.
Eric and Win stood beside her.
Eric put his hands over hi. face
and his shoulders moved with a
deep sob.
But Win lifted the stricken
mother and said gently, Come.
Halle. I'm going to give you some
thing to make you sleep"
Halle didn't cry. She lay in the
big bed and looked at the ceiling,
all life drained out of her. Days
and nights, sunshine and storms,
they came and passed and she
seemed not to know it.
The funeral was oVe and Eric
had to get back to his new job.
Halle, YOU just take it easy for
a few days. You'd better stay here.
I've got 10 get back. In flying out
10 Arizona, but I'll be back in ten
DAYS. Ill come and get you
Halle said, I'm not going
back.
Good, It's much better for You
to stay here until you feel like fac

There isn't anything to face

In the bedroom that seemed so
diSproportionatcly huge to house
the little crib where Lctitia lay.
Halle sat hour after hour, with her
heart in her eyes and a desperate
prayer in her heart.
Sometimes she dozed from sheer
fatigue and the nurse led her. half
asleep to a couch, and covered her
with a blanket. Minerva called
upon all her skill to prepare the
trays that Halle sent away scarce

with all its meager powers, but its
shadows vas crushingly near.
Winthrop Adams heart achcd
with the wish to comfort Halle,
but she lived now within the shell
Of her terrible expectancy and it
vas beyond human power to reach
and comfort her.
The frustrated wish gave rise to
anger. Win would have gladly
thrashed Eric into the mold of what
he should have been.
If Win had dared, he would have
brought Hallie's tired head to rest
against his comforting shoulder
But that was Eric's place, and Eric
was flying to Honduras. And Win
blamed himself for that. He had
somehow failed.
And then Eric came back, arriv-
ing calmly in the middle OF the
night, saying, is the baby okay?'

been through hell while you've been
on a holiday. Your child is dying.
It's got n chance n a million of

what to tell Halle"
But when Eric saw her, saw the
waXen form of the baby. he coulC
only touch Hallie's hand and say
Honest, honey, 1 didn't know it

Halle looked a him with no in

tortured glance went back to the
baby.
