But she had not spoken a word
to Oliver of what was in her heart.
She had borrowed strength from
her pride of him. Few men would

had: certainly not this J. Emmett

There was a resounding clash of

Diane thought. and for a fleeing
second her guileless expression

Her hand moved out and back as
though it held a baseball; with ua-

flowers hurting over the lifted
faces straight to Page Winston's
feet. Then with a soft laugh she
turned and ran up the stairs.

Where was the young man now?
j. Emmet's eyes sought and found
him, not among the dancers. but

groups. He was standing with his
mother and father and the Mat

CHAPTER ONE

CHAP lER ONE
The occasion for the traffic jam
outside the farrell home was the
wedding of Diane farrell to Bill
Arden. Even the sidewalks were
c crowded by the curious.
LET 'em stand" said one of the
policemen detailed to tn event.
"'Tisn't like it was a fight"
MOT yet, anyway" answered
the other, cheerfully.
So the women and some men
continued to stand and to stare
expectantly at the lighted win
dows. 1t was the daughter Of J..
Emmett farrell getting married
behind that blaze. Some said he
was tn richest man in Granular
Dor, others that it was mostly
bluff. That he'd started as a steve.
dore on tine docks of San Fran
cisco, that he'd made his pile
smuggling. No, he'd stuck gold in
Alaska. No, it was tin down in
South America. He had come to
Grandharbor only two years ago
and its citizens, inclined to mod,
esty in their claims for their city's
opportunities, were still figuring
why and for what.
A few talked ABOUT the way he'd
bought this house, n of the fin
est on Oak Avenue. Oliver Mat

Company had built it, ten years
ago, and then his company had

ed and one of them a Romney.
And up had stepped j. Emmett
farrell with the cash practically
in his pocket. He'd kept on the
MattheWson servants and moved

The younger women talked
about the girl. Some had served
her in various eating places
