once the heavier downtown
~ traffic had been left behind,
the car began to pick up speed.
Derria sat quietly. not speak
ing.
A fine drizzle was beginning to
fall; Derria barely noticed it, nor
the people hurrying everywhere
to get out of the wet. She was
thinking about Cherry's death,
but somehow she couldn't get
past the thought of her lying
there on the dance floor.
Haid spoke for thesfirst time in
many minutes.
"Quit thinking about it." In
spite of the words. the tone was
kind.
81 can't help thinking I'm rum
ming away. After all, she was a
good friend of mine"
where did you first meet
her?" Haid asked.
"She came into Brooke MacIn-
tosh one day in connection with
some work they were doing for
her. was asked to look after
her, and we've been friends ever
since"
"Was this long ago?"'
Actually, only about a year
and half, though it seems much
longer"
"She ever talk much about
herself, or about Holway? Did
she ever tell you what she did
before she met him?"
mo, she never dwelt much on
the past. She usually talked
about the club, or the house on
Lilac Street. She never said much
about Holway, and never asked
her. She didn't like being asked
questions - she'd become very
close-mouthed. All ! really know
is that her folks weren't very
well off. and that she was in
vaudeville years ago."
Derria glanced out of the win.
dow. The rain was coming down
hard now, the thonk of the WHIP
erS sounding loudly inside the
car.
"where are we going9" she f.
nally asked.
Connecticut" came the laconic
answer.
s7What on earth for?"

in that short distance, Derria felt
the wet soaking into the thin
so!es Of her evening slippers.
They entered a large farm
kitchen; the linoleum felt slip
perry under Derria's feet
Good evening, Mrs. Jason"
Haid greeted the woman who had
opened the door. "This is the
Miss Martin ! spoke to you about.
We're late; the roads are bad"
MRS. Jason nodded. Its q ter
ribie night. FIN sure Miss Martin
would epjay cup of tea" Derria
watched her as she hustled about
the room, neat and quick-mov-
ing, all her actions competent.
Derria took off her fur jacket
and hung it over the back of a
chair. Haid, seeing her trying to
brush some of the mud splashes
from the hem of her evening
dress, said:
Mrs. Jason can probably fix
you up with something to wear.
guess you can manage that all
right?" He turned to the older
woman, and moved over to the
door.
1--WE got to be getting back.
There are several things to be
done back in town that won't
keep" He looked at MRS. Jason
meaningly.
What about me-" Derria in
terrupted. How long am ! to
stay here? After all, / have a job
to go to. 1t you think I'm going
to sit here until you're ready to
get me. you're crazy" She moved
toward him. why. what about
Sarah? She'll be worried sick"
can't help that" he answered
shortly. You'll have to stay here
for few days-until it's safe for
you to leave
Derria followed 70 the porch.
Haid's car was already in mo-
ton. She felt the rain beating at
her. At the same time. her arm
was gripped tightly. Mrs. Jason's
voice was quite calm as she
spoke.
Come, my dear. If you stay
out here much longer, you'll ruin
your dress" With surprising
strength, she pulled the girl back
toward the door. Derria caught a
faint fash as the headlights of
the disappearing car rounded a
turn, to be instantly obliterated |
in the rushing darkness. With q
feeling close to despair she fol- |
lowed Mrs. Jason into the house
