PART SECOND
CHAPTER LIy machine had been repaired for a
week but I Wad not had It brought upto town when I received a note fromLeah It was dated Tuesday
Como down immediately filie wroteIf you can think of a plauslblo pretext
but dont say that I sent for you MissFielding will not ask you herself butwo need you very much I truet toyou
I tqok an early afternoon train thenext day and finding no one to meetma at the station engaged a carriageto take me over to Miss Fieldings placeMy driver would I am sure have beenglad to gossip with mo upon tho ladysaffairs bvt I headed off all his hintsknowing pretty well from Undo JerdonsInsinuations what tho tonor of thd neighborhood talk must be
Mldmoadows was about four miles fromthe station and a half mile back fromthe county road Tho house was approaohed by two long lanes overgrownwith shrubbery and hazels ono from theseaside 95 tho eapt and ono from thomain road on the north We took tholatter a wild and tangled wagon trackfilled wish stones and hummocks andworn into deep holes The boughs oftrees constantly scraped across the topof fits buggy and often hung low enoughto threaten our oyes Near tho housethe lane took a turn round the corner ofan extensive oldfashioned garden ofhollyhocks roue bushes poppies andviolets then swung up to the greeneightpaneled front door with its tran-som of old bullseye panes The copsocame in close to the garden partly in-
closing it on tw sides To the right oftho house vegetables were planted withmeadow beyond and behind the hillrose almost from the stable Tho wholeplace had a charming natural wildnessand seemed as indeed it was miles awayform any other human habitation but itwas not uncared for its natural featureshad been amended and composed withthe care of a truo artist
The house Itself was long and lowcovered with unstained shingles Agreat square brick chimney rose fromthe middle of the gambrel roof Thelower windows were leaded and built nutIto wide bays but they showed abovethe little paned saghoe of tho originalbuilding The front was almost hidden
climbing Cecil Bruner roses nowodorously in bloom The southern sidewas lined with a row of geraniumswhich rose in hugo bushes Here in thesecond story was another bay windowof curious construction somewhat re-sembling the stern of an old galleon Itwas Miss Fieldings sItting room whichI had not yet visited
The place seemed deeerUd for notoven tho dogs were visible I got outand knocked while my driver waitedcuriously to catch what was probablya rare glimpse of tho mistress of thohouse
Joy herself wearing a white ducKsailqr suit with a red handkerchiefknotted about her nook answered myknock She held her hand to her eyesto shad them from the of theafternoon sun BO that I could not atfirst QuitO make out her expression Thefirst thing she showed after her surprisewas a moet cordial satisfaction at
me She did not apparently expectme but my presence delighted her Isaw next that she was in trouble Thevery Intensity of her welcome alarmedme The two vertical lines between herbrows were d ply cut into her foreheadher lips were quivering there were darkcircles under her eyes
She drew quickly Into the libraryand I saw terror In her look Her cheekswere pale and wan Her hand trembledas t lay on the back of a chair where
leanedOh I am M glad you have como
had been her first speech murmured inthe halt and it was repeated now as Istood before her I am so glad youhave come I need you so
I had fancied before that her face wason capable of expressing tragedy notevery womans ii Tragedy shadowed
face now giving her a newer moredramatic beauty so moving that despitemy alarm I could not help wondering-at itYou are not well I exclaimed
Oh well enough she repliedSomething is the matter what is ItSit down and Ill try to tell you
Sho dropped into H chair with her elbow on the table letting her cheek fallinto th hollow of her palm Her eyesco ed for a moment the soft longlathes shading her pale oheek Thenshe shook herself and sat erect
Im o sleepy she moaned Ihavent slept since night before
sprang up from the window sootWont you lie down hero and rest
Do I pleadedOh I dont dare I dont dare she
criedToil me what Is troubling so
that I may try to help youShe looked up and said Leah has
gone And she put out a hand thattrembled with a despairing gesture
Gone I repeated Where-I dont know whero I dont know
when she went I dont know evenwhyDo
you fear she has mot with anaccident then
Oh no not that than thatjShe spoke helplessly
Worse I could not understandI mean I think I must have driven
her awayI still ould not Ruass Why how
could you have done that You meanthat she took offense at something per-haps
Oh I must have made it impossiblefor her to stay
But what did you do She was de-
voted to youShe sprang up and walled out with
hitter vehemence Oh I dont know-I dont know If I only knew I coulddo something But what can I donow Shes gone She was my righthand my wes my ears my memory
but Its not that Its that I could havebeen Vruel enough to her to drive heraway Where IB she Where could shehave gone do you think Ive waitedand waited to hear from her or for herto come back two whole days I didnt-go to bed at all last night I didnt darelest she should come while I was asleep
You expect her to return thonShe was walking up and down tho
room her hand clasped behind her backtightly I could that she was on thevctgo of hysteria Sho returned to meagain and said
Oh Loah wyuld never abandon menever Shes too true for that Butafraid to come hack
I went up to her and led her gently tothe seat
Now I said toll me exactly whathis happened
She breXe out again wildly her facetwitching with excitement I dont
Thats the horror of It I mayhave killed her for all I know
Ah Do you moan I Logan afraidto say It that youve forgotten
She stared at me Forgotten JVelJV f i
ten Site put her face Into the pillowand begun to sob convulsively Afterthis nervous crisis had spentsat up wiped her eyes and said with a
spectral smileOh Ill have to tell you everything

now I cant bear it any longer It wasbad enough while I had Leah to dependupon but now J somebody toconfide in orshall go mad If I havent
I looked ovSF at the table where I no-ticed a coffee pot dud a cup on a salver
How much coffee have you drunk Iasked
Oh I dont know Cup after cupIve been drinking it all day to keep meawake
That accounts for your nerves Youmust rest if you sleep a little youllget your strength back
She sprang up suddenly her grippedfists raised her head thrown back in asuddon new access of alarm Oh nono no You dont understand I darentsleep Im afraidafraid How do Iknow what may happen now when rmso worn out
I had done conslderablo thinking whileI was away and I had done some read-Ing as well I was boGinning now tomoko It out piece by piece and put Ittogether in an astonishing whole Itwas too late In this crisis for reservestoo lato for me to keep to my promiseof not trying to know The girl wasdistraught and alone And indeed thedoor to the cupboard where her skeletonhad been hidden was now well ajar
You are afraid you mean of theother one I brought it out deliber-ately
She stared at me like a somnambulistYes she whispered of the other
onoThen for the first time and quite un-
consciously I think sho used my nameIt seemed so natural to me that I wasnot surprised
Oh Im so glad you know at lastChaster Im so glad that it will be easierto tell you She put her harfd on myarm and looked up at me in tenderestconfidence Now you know why I calledmyself the White Cat
Yes I eee Dont be alarmed Illhelp you You must calm yourself andwell find out a way I know her youknow
Yes I know you do You must tellmo all about her some time How youmust have hated
Perhaps I can manage her but nomatter about her now We must thinkIt all out and decide calmly what to
not afraid Trust me and Ill seeyou It will all come out rightIm sure
I wont on so purposely Iterating suchphrases to lull her and key down theintense strain which wrought upon herHer eyes kept on me and I saw myinfluence suggestion I mightsay since it was purposely hypnoticHer hysteria made her abnormally sen-sitive to the treatment She relaxedher attitude slightly sighed anddropped back among tho silken pillowsbehind her
Oh youre DO good breathedYou will help me Youre so strong
its such a comfort to hav t you hereSho reached her hand out shyjy and
In mine where It lay email and coldIt was tho first time she had done soexcept under the direct strew of air arn-ostnesa strong enough to rob the aeUofany personal suggestion It waa a dlsrmet caress fearless and genuine
Now I said begin at the beginningand toll me all about what has hap-pened
