SECOND INSTALMENT
"Tour father was away when
I made my discovery. He’d been
mvay tor several weeks on some
thing that he called a ‘big deal.'
1 was expecting him home the
very night that I saw the doctor,
and I planned to tell him all
abont you, at once. So I sat in
the garden and waited for him,
and watched for his train. And
finally I saw it—the train that
ahonld have brought him to me
—sweep across the valley below
the house. I saw it stop at the
station, and I saw It go on again.
And I waited, with my soul full
of the news I had to tell—I
waited to give him the tidings of
his son (for I thought, darling,
that you were going to be a
•boy!) but he didn’t come, al
though I waited all of that night.
. . . And the next day, when 1
got the message that told me he
wasn’t coming back, ever, I went
•upstairs, and into my room and
locked the door. And I sat down
and began to knit a blue sweator
ter you. And I whistled, hard,
as 1 knitted. I haven’t whistled
since—and I certainly never
whtetled before, Ellen! That’s
why, I guess, you were a girl.

... A boy wouldn’t have had
any use for a mother who whis
tled so badly. ... A boy—’’
All at once Ellen’s mother had
stopped talking. Her voice had
dwindled away Into a funny,
tragic silence. And Ellen saw
her face go oddly white, felt her
hand go chill and limp.
It was then that Ellen, start
ing to her feet, saw her mother’s
head sag forward.
"I’m going for the doctor," she
half sobbed. ‘‘Your chest. ... Is
it your heart, darling? Is it—’’
Ellen’s mother had rallied.
Her smile was less wan than it
had been.
"My heart?’’ questioned El
len’s mother. "Oh—nonsense!
Indigestion, no doubt. Something
I—’’ even then she managed a
trifle of gayety, "something I
ate as a child, no doubt! I'm
quite well, now. . .
• • •
It didn't occur to Ellen In the
weeks that passed, to ask her
mother for the details of what
had happened to her father. In
her mind she had a vivid im
pression of some major calam
ity—of a train wreck or an auto
mobile disaster. Only a calamity
could hava kept her father from
her mother at such a time, she
was sure!
And then, perhaps a month
later, the special delivery letter
arrived.
It was the boy from the post-
office who brought the letter.
Because her mother •n’as at work
she had signed for it, and dis
missed the boy, before she spoke
to the woman who painted so
absorbedly.
"It’s a letter," she said, “a
special delivery for you. I guess

With a start her mother came
back from the land of her own
creation, to reality. With listless
hands she took the envelope
from her daughter, and slit it
open. Ellen watched her mother
idly—so idly that at first she
could scarcely believe what her
__ eyes were seeing! For, as she

her mothor, and watched oh her
mother's shaking hand wrote a
check—^wrote”lt to what. In El
len’s knowledge of the family
finances, was an alarming a-
mount. It was only after the
check was carefully made out to
a strange name, and as careful
ly blotted, that the woman spoke
again.
"Ellen,” she said, ‘‘dear. Get
your hat and take this, at once,
to the post-office in the village.
And send it special delivery, and
register it.”
Ellen, even in the face of her
mother’s tragic hurry, couldn’t
quite grasp the seriousness of
the letter. Her mother’s sudden
illness seemed so much more im
portant.
“Too bad I didn’t ask the boy
to wait,” she said. "Ho could
just 8s well have taken a letter
back.”
"I couldn’t,” said her mother
with a great effort, ‘‘have trust
ed it to anyone else, this letter!
You’d have had to take It, any
way. . . . And I’m glad—remem
ber that, always, Ellen!—that It
Is just about all the money I
have. I’m utterly grateful that
there was enough. And—I don’t
want a doctor. I’m not ill. I’m
never 111. . . .”
She rose again. She turned
heavily away, toward the house.
And Ellen, with no other word,
but clutching tbe envelope, went
out of the garden and started
townward. She walked so fast
that she didn’t have time to won
der about anything. But she
reached the post-office with a
good margin of minutes, and
followed her mother’s instruc
tions soberly, and started back
home.
The w'y back led past the
doctor’s square white house. He
wasn’t in. But she left a message
with the 'doctor’s aged house
keeper—w'ho eyed her with a
frank curiosity—and hurried on.
"Mother’ll be cross,” she told
herself, as she scuffed her feet
along in the dust of the road—
"because I’ve asked the doctor to
stop by. But she can’t go on,
having these fumy spells! I
wonder who th.> letter was
from?”
The letter! Ellen couldn t help
being curious about ii—could
n’t help feeling that it held the
elements of mystery. It didn’t, of
that she was sure, relate to bus
iness, for what business dealings
could have to do with such a
largo check? It must be some
thing strange and ominous. It
might almost go back, across the
years, to her father, and yet . . .
The house lay in the last light
of the setting sun, it was her
world. Its four walls bounded all
of her life, and her childhood,
and her fragile store of exper
ience. It was her home—sur
rounded by her garden.
Down the path she went, with
its border of fading beauty, in
through the wide open door. In
the hallway she paused for a
moment before a dim mirror and
automatically fluffed her hair.
Suddenly, without knowing why
she did it. she was calling wildly,
was running toward the stairs.
Screaming—
"Mother! Molhetl darling!
Where art you? Where are
you—’’
There was no answer, only
a whispered echo from quiet
rooms. Elle 1, with the cold fin
gers of dread touching her heart,
found herself running up the
flight of stairs t. .at led to the
second floor.
Ellen knocked, not too softly,
upon the panel of her mother’s
door. And then when she hoard
no sound from within, she jerk
ed the door open and paused,
panting, upon the threshold.
At first, as she stood there,
she kneiv a great sense of relief.
It was as she had supposed—her
mother was lying on the bed,
resting! As she tiptoed across
the room, Ellen thought that her
mother was really asleep. For
her lips were smiling very beau
tifully, with their old magic;
and her eyes were softly closed
it was as if. in truth, she were
the sleeping beauty.
At first Ellen thought her mo
ther wa.s asleep. And then sud
denly she knew completely and
utterly, and with an overwhelm
ing sense of aloneness, that her
mother was not sleeping!
Perhaps it was something in
the sweetness of her mother’s
smile. Perhaps it was something
in the chill magic of the room.
But Ellen knew surely. . . . And
yet, knowing, she did not touch
that still figure, and neither did
she cry out. Instead she walked
very close to the bed. And as she
came close, she saw that her
mother’s fingers held a letter,
ever so slightly crumpled. It was
the letter that had come only the
space of a few hours ago.
Ellen, scarcely knowing what
she did, reached over and took
the letter from her mother’s
hand. She smothed out its wrin
kles very methodically, and read.
And then, suddenly, she was
lying on the floor, beside her
mother’s bed, sobbing out all of
her heartache and her disillus
ionment and her pain.
For the letter, written, with
brutal frankness, in an untaught
band, was from a woman. A wo
man who told of a man’ff> death
MORDAY, OCfH. 22,'
- WASHINGTON ... Donald Bieh-
beig (above). Director of the In
dustrie Recovery Board, in the man
around whom the administration of
the NBA now swing* as General
Hugh Johnson deflnitelj 'stepped
lout, on October lA
in a cheap lodging house, in an
other state. "Toward the last,”
wrote the woman, "he spoke of
you, often. But still and all,
there wasn’t any reason why he
should have seen you! He’d
stopped loving you—and he did
love me. Maybe he thought you
were well to do—and, at the
end, he hadn’t anything. And
after all, you were his wife, for
there was never any divorce. And
now that there’s no money for
funeral expenses — well, o f
course, If you want charity to
bury him. . . . But a grave and
a marker and all the rest—’’
here she named a sum of money,
a sum that Ellen had seen her
mother write upon a check.
“I don’t suppose, though." the
letter ended, "that it matters
much. now. Only he was sort of
proud, always. . .
Ellen, sobbing, understood at
last.
But Ellen was never to know
the details of her father’s final
degeneration, or of his death, or
of his burial. All that she ever
knew was that the last check her
mother had written was return
ed, duly endorsed by some dist
ant firm of undertakers, to the
bank.
She never knew the final chap
ter of her mother’s tragic story!
But she did know, at last, why
her mother had crept away from
the city, from people—why she
had tried to shield her only
child from cities, and from peo
ple.
The darkness, creeping ghost
like into a room of sadness and
death and despair, brought with
it a swift memory of tha garden,
the garden as It had been a
month before.
Through the darkness Ellen
could hear the approaching rum
ble of the doctor’s Ford. But
she was aware of its subjective
ly. The only actual sound that
she heard was the echo of her
mother’s voice, speaking. Say
ing—
“Love lightly. Don’t get inten
se about love. Don’t give any
thing. . . . Take everything, but
don’t—’’
Oh, it had been a magnificent
lie! Ellen’s hand, wet with her
own tears, reached up to touch
her mother’s chill fingers that
had been clenched upon a cruel
letter.
