one appeared to notice that my husband stayed in
the BACKGROUND.
Wine and food were served And in the midst
of the chatter and music my spirits rose. grabbed
the tambourine and began to dance. let myself
go, whrling and swaying in the room, singing a
Gypsy tune at the top of my voice.
Suddenly my husband got up from his chair
against the wall and walked to the middle of the
room
The music stopped. In the startled hush,
Eugene's voice sounded loud

able eyes.

me into his arms, and carried me into our bridal
suite!
This was the beginning of the ever-haunting
experience which was my wedding night-in which
my fear of impending tragedy ruled out all DESIRE
all chance for romance and love.
My weird honeymoon began.

had understood what tenderness meant. A child
might have made a great difference in my life.
l realize, of course, that was too governed by
superstition to have given Eugene fair chance to
win me TO his way of thinking and living.
My days in the spooky castle were horrors my
nights of quarreling were worse When / thought
back over that year, sacrificed for the sake of
night, it seemed unreal.
He did not understand that although he gave
me clothes, automobiles took me to theaters and
suppers-wined and dined and showed me off
among the aristocrats-I still could not help dread
ing being alone with him.
You avoid me every way you can" Eugene
said one day. II don't want to intrude you, but
why shouldn't I? You are my wife. You can't
treat me as if were stranger always.
About you there is an aura of everything
man wants, yet you really all twisted with
superstition and fear. Will you ever CHANGE"
I'm terribly lonely, Eugene live here like a
prisoner No friend is allowed to come near me-"
This was the only time he ever tried to humor
and the result of that marked the turning point
in my life.
'Tll invite your friends from the theater to
supper tonight" he told me.
ooh, will you? How nice!'
AT least that makes you smile" he answered
