i i : 2 THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 22, 1932 Fo 'since she marrie¢ Smily Crayn had been Ta the Malcolm, constantly worried by his old 'debts | and new bills. The day before the wedding at Emily Rallifer's Mary- land home, Barton Hale, Mac's New York broker. telephoned for more margin but Mac could not put up more money and was wiped out. On their honeymoon he spent $1,000 his mother had given Emil; wedding present to help furnish their home. As a result they could not move into an apartment from their New York hotel, but he took another flyer on a. shoestring and made $2,000. They moved then to the suburban apartment house in which Bette Osgood, married daughter of Emily's cousin Louisa James, lived. Mac kept on specu- lating, winning, then losing at in- opportune times, until he lost his job with a title and mortgage com- pany, Emily was close-mouthed through pride but once she told her troubles to Virginia Gover when Virginia came to her to confide her worries over her hard-drinking husband Ted. Mac did not look for another job. Just after her baby girl was born at her parents' home, the Govers committed suicide to- gether in England, and Virginia left Emily a legacy of $125,000. Frighiened by Mac's attitude to- wards money. Emily put this in- to an irrevocable trust fund. - without telling Mac, who had gone ahead renting offices and preparing to gc into the market in a big way. When she toid him what she had done he was very angry and left home, Emily phoned the next day to Tory Birch, who had been Mac's Har- vard room-mate. INSTALMENT NO. 27 In the cool first dawn Emily awoke stiff and chilled and cramped, and saw that night was over and Mac had not returned She got into bed and lay there shivering, trying to hold herself steady in the panie which fell upon her. She heard one of the servants go downstairs, tle household would soon be stirring and she knew that she must have a protective lie to begin the day. When she heard the second maid going down, she went to the door "Ida," she said, 'Mr. Crayn won't be her for breakfast, please tell the cook. He went over 'o our apartment for some things last night and said he'd stay over there."" It wasn't much or an excuse, but it would serve. Then she went in to young Emily for her first feeding, but said noti- ing of Mac's absence to Miss Haines, fearing to wakxen her avid curiosity. Let her find it out casually, as a happening of no importance. Again, as she heid her Huy daughter, Emily felt the imposs bility of doing anythicg but what she had done. The ex- ence of this child was an ob- tion to certain duties, wheth- ef Mac shared in them or not. There it was, hard and plain-- whether Mac shared in them or not. ' "When her breakfast tray was brought up Cousin Louisa came with it, "Good morning, my deap," she said. "Ida tells me that Mac went over to the apart- ment. He might as well have come back for breakfast, it isn't far." "Come on in," said Emily, "I want to tell you something. Miss Haines would like to go bacx home tonight, she's got another case, and I'm wondering if I can get along without a nurse at al'. What do you think?" --~ "Well, of course, while the baby's so tiny and so good and sleeps so much--when she's a little older you could have some: body to take her out afternoous * --but I should think you couid get along very well now. I'll help you. I'd jove-to." "But after all, we're not per- manent residents on you. We © ought to get back into our own { place pretty soon--"' 1 "You certainly seem full of ideas for so early in the moru- 'ning. Everything doesn't have to be done at once, T hope." © "You sound exactly like Mo- . ther." The little talk with ousin Louisa reassured her, shed away the terrors of the Just because she pre- i seemed as if it truly was. began to feel that any minute Mac would teiephone or walk iv. "But he did not come, he did fi: not telephone, and as soon as 0 imily was dressed she went over & 'the apartment only to find that 'he was not there and had not "been there. She tried to think ] . where he might be and' at she called Toustan and Ways on the telephone and ask- ed for Barton Hale. "I'm sorry to disturb you in business hours," , "but if Mac's there I'd to speak to him.

I'll tell him to call you if he does come in. He's robably 'over in his new offices; i 's going to be so high-hat now 'with all this money he'll not ome around much. Tell me, how are you and when am I go- ing to see you?" "Soon, 1 hope."' If she could ly ask hin where Mac's new of were! But she must not confess Ler ignorance, She went 'on quickly: "I want you to come to dinger as soon as we get back to our apartment, I sollected 2 t of recipes while I was down Om 8 -- \ © 'T'm mot soming because of ihe { I want to see you." "You siways make we feel so and fascineting, it's marvel- ! Pleasc don't forget to tell A d "it's really very important." y as al ground floor she met the agent. Mac to call me up if he comes in, "I'll remember, surely." She called up Tory Birch's of- fice, but Tory was out and wouldn't be back until noon. So there was no more she could do, and perhaps by this time there was a message for her at Cousin Louisa's. She locked the apart- ment and hurried out, but on the "The party that's got your six- room's talking as if they'd like to stay on,' he told her. "Of course, at this late date, with -on- ly another week till they're due to go, I didn't give 'em any en- couragement, but I was going tn call you up today and ask yon about it. I believe they'd pay a little higher for the accommoda- tion." "I'll speak to Mr, Crayn tonight and let you know," said Emily, "I think we'll probably want it back." With the income from Virginia's legacy she could race the higher rent and still have plenty to live on. Besides it might please Mac if they were in the large place, he so disliked the little one. It might make his see how reasonable it was, how sensible, to be able to live comfortably and not worry--al- though, she recalled, Mac had never done any worrying about the rent or any other expense. The painful suspense of the day increased when she found nH word from him had reached th: héuse in her absence. Bette as wcoming to lunch; Emily felt she must escape the sharp eyes and sharper intuitions. "I have a sick headache coming on, |! think," she said to Cousin Louisa. "I'm going to lie down and try to sleep. But if Mac 'phones be sure and call me; there's something I want to talk to him about specially." She was just going into her room when the 'phone rang, and she crossed into Cousin lLouisa's roo and answered it, Tory Birch's voice, not Mac's spoke to her. "You called me up," he said. "Anything I can do for you?" "Oh Tory--do you Mac is?' "Gosh. no--what's the matter, old dear? You sound up a tree." "Haven't vou seen him? He didn't come in town and stay with you last night?" "Why no. Say, what is all this?" know where "Don't bother unless you can't come, I'll be glad when you're back in the apartment, I miss you like the devil. So does Andy." Bette kissed her and went gaily on her way. Emily forced herself to eat a piece of toast and drink some tea, then again resigned herself to wa't. She heard Bette and Cousin Louisa go out, and sct her door ajar to listen for the jphione, If Tory didn't call her by half past three, she would call him. She set this bound to her waiting to make it easier, but the minutes lagged drearily, It was only by supreme effort that she kept still and silent. A little after three she heard the phone and hurried across to Cousin Louisa's room, snatched the receiv~ er. It was Tory. "Did you find him, Tory, is he all right?" she beg- svi ged, } "Yes, 1 found hita," The connec- tion was bad, there wis a dry buz- zing in her car and Tory sounded verv far off "Is 'he all right, Tory? where is he?" "He was at the club, he'd just come in there, Emily, I don't know what to say. he's got his back up frightfully, I couldn't make him hear to reason. I--well--if I were vou I'd leave him alone for a day or so. When people are so sore thev're not easv to deal with--" "What did he say, tell me exact ly. And he is all right, isn't he." "Oh, he's in good health, if that's what vou mean, oh ves. He said-=- well. he didn't say mach but he seems to think vou don't Trust him, and that--that vou didn't play fair about the Gover legacy."

She put down the "phone and tip- toed back to her room, pulled down the blind, set out aspirin and other accessories of a sicks headache. It was a mere camouflage to gain time and k-~-» the secret of Mac's ab- sence her own as long as possible. She hoped that she would find him before she must expose herself tq pitving curiosity and a sympathy she would hate, but must not rebuff too sharply. It would have been easier, she reflected with a twist of irony, if they had waited to quarrel until thev had gone back to their own apartment. They would at least have had privacy. She lay there still in the darkeri- ed room, she could hear faintly the noises of the house, the servants' paseing, Bette's arrival and now and then the ringing of the 'phone, When that happened she sat up, taut and stiff with expectation, but it wag never for her. Miss Haines brought in vounz Emily at her hour and took her away again with- out much comment on the supposed headache. She was too absorbed in getting ready for her departure, which could not, Emily reflected, have been more aptly timed. Once ret her out of the house and every- thing would be easier.
