BEATRICE RUNS AWAY
CHAPTER III

Beatrice Huntington Daven-
port sat up very straight in her
car, and looked fixedly at the
back of Jenkins head as he
drove through the slow-moving,
heavy, late afternoon traffic. She
had promised Clarence that she
would marry him next week.
Promised because, for q moment
in his arms, with his lips on hers,
she had believed that he was
right.
1--WE shall be so happy! No
other pair in history have ever
been as happy as we shall be,
darling" he had whispered. mo
more discomfort, my love. !
promise you, our life will hold
more than parties and social
foolishness and wild running
around. I love you, and you love
me. We shall have q marriage
the world will wonder at"
Beatrice realized that Clarence
was utterly serious, and with the
realization came q rush of pride
that she had not, after all, been
fooled by fortune hunter. Clar-
ence loved her and wanted to
make their marriage a real and
solid bond.
But after he was gone - while
she sat here in the car and the
city streets darkened around her
uncertainty gripped her. Being
engaged to Clarence was fun.
Taking him away from Mimi
rockingham had been fun. At
least, until this afternoon, 1t had
all been enjoyable enough.
But she had never actually set
the date of her wedding. She had
never thought what marriage
meant. Its permanence-the So
lemnity which Clarence was
bringing to lit! nsarnessl Next

Her wristwatch showed that 1t
was a quarter to six. This crowd,
then, was going home from
work. Home on the subway.
She gazed at the kiosk in fas-
cination, as she moved out of the
stream into q little island of peo-
pie waiting against a drug store
window. OF course, she'd been on
the subway. She could close her
eyes and see the station at Fifth
Avenue and the Park-long and
echoing and empty. She could
see the way while columns
flashed past as you sat in q car
and hear the noise Of air rushing
and the rumble Of wheels.
Yes, she had ridden on the
subway. Years ago. With girls
from school, and with her gov
erness before that. But she had
never ridden the subway as an
adult-never when she could
see, hear and understand and
somehow feel the difference be-
tween these peoples lives and
herself.
She remembered her grand
father, saying, There's no fun
IL you never have any battles to
fight" These people battled
life, every day. They had wor-
ries and struggles and because
they had, sometimes they must
have fulfillment, too, and tri-
umph.
All at once, her mind was made
up. I'm going to live their
way, for q while. I'm going to
see what It's likel"
Beatrice Huntington Daven-
port, in the mink coat that was
so dark and shining, stepped out
into the stream and let IL carry
her down the Uttered steps to
the huge, busy subway station
below the sidewalk.
The first thing she noticed was
q bank Of parcel lockers. Quick
", she slipped out Of her coat,
wadded Il up and opening one
Of the lockers pushed the ex-
pensive, telLtale bundle inside.
She slammed the door, took the
key and walked rapidly away.
