nausea, but under his uncle's encour
agement he was able to be explicit.
"She said ray mother wanted you to1 be
friendly to her about Eugene Morgan.
She said my mother had been using
Aunt Fanny as a chaperone."
Amberson emitted a laugh of dis
gust. "It's wonderful what tommy-rot
a woman In a state of spite can think
ofl I suppose you don't doubt that
Amelia Amberson created this speci
men of tommy-rot herself? Of all the
damn nonsense!" ,
George looked at him haggardly.
"You're sure people are not talking?"
"Rubbish! Your mother's on. my
side about this division because she
knows Sydney's a pig and always has
been a pig, and so has his spiteful
wife. I'm trying to keep them from
getting the better of your mother as
well as from getting the better of me,
don't you suppose? Well, they're In a
rage because Sydney always could do
what he liked with father unless your
mother interfered, and they know I got
Isabel to ask him not to do what they
wanted. That's all there is to it."
i'But she said," George persisted
wretchedly; "she said there was talk.
She said"
"Look here, young fellow !" Amber
son laughed good-naturedly. "There
probably Is so:ne harmless talk about
the way your Aunt Fanny goes after
poor Eugene, and I've no doubt I've
abetted it myself. Fanny was always
languishing at him, twenty-odd years
ago, before he left here. Well, we
can't blame the poor thing if she's got
her hopes up again, and I don't know
that I blame her, myself, for using
your mother the way she does."
"How do you mean?" (
Am!erson put his hand on George's
shoulder. "You like to tease Fanny,'
he fcald. "but I wouldn't tease her
about this, if I were you. Fanny hasn't
got much In her life. In fact, I don't
know of anything much that Fanny
has got, except her feeling about Eu
gene. She's, always had it and what's
funny to us is pretty much life-and
death to her, I suspect. Now, I'll no
deny that Eugene Morgan Is attracted
to ypur-mother. He is ; and that's an
other case of 'always was ; but I know
him, and he's a knight, George a
crazy one, perhaps, if you've read 'Don
Quixote. And I think your mother
likes him better than she likes any
man outside her own family, and that
he Interests her more than anybody
else and 'always has.' And that's all
there is to it, except "
"Except what?" George asked quick
ly, as he paused.
"Except that I suspect " Amberson
chuckled, and began over: "I'll tell
you in confidence. Fanny uses your
mother for a decoy duck. She does
everything In. the world she can to
keep your mother's friendship with
Eugene going, because she thinks
that's what keeps Eugene about the
place, so to speak. Fanny's always
with your mother, you see ; and when
ever he sees Isabel he sees Fanny.
Fanny thinks he'll get used to the idea
of her being around, and some day her
chance may -. come! There! D'you
see?"
" "Well I suppose so." George's
brow was still dark, however. "If
you're sure whatever talk there Is, is
about Aunt Fanny. If that's so"
"Don't be an. ass," his uncle advised
him lightly, moving away. "I'm off lor
a week's fishing to forget that woman
in there, and her. pig of a husband. '

and without the emotion he had ex

grew, fiery red, and her eyes dilated.
"What on earth do you want to bring
such trash to me for?" she demanded,
breathing fast. - '
"I merely wished to know two
things : whether it Is your duty or
mine to speak to father of what Aunt

' Fanny stamped her foot. "You lit

fool! Your father's a sick man, and
you want to go troubling him with an

that cat would love you to do !"
"Well, I "
Tell your father if you like! It
will only make him a little sicker to
think he's got a son silly enough to
listen to such craziness!" .
"Then you're sure there Isn't any
alk?"
Fanny disdained a reply In words.
She made a hissing sound of utter con-
empt and snapped her fingers. Then
she asked scornfully : "What's the
Lucy Morgan? Let in: j. seer.; I seem

after Inscribing his protest in the mat

to tenderness, and proceeded to read a
letter, from his mother which" had

T
Fanny stared at him Incredulously.
You mean you'd quit seeing Lucy?"
"I hadn't thought of that side-of It,
but If such a thing were necessary on
account of talk about my mother, I-
-" He hesitated unhappily. "I sug"-
gested that if all of us for a time
perhaps only for a time It might be

"See here," she Interrupted. "We'll
settle this nonsense right now. If Eu

get up and leave the place the minute

That would do just as well. What Is
It you're up to, anyhow? Do you really
love your Aunt Amelia so much that
you want to please her? Or do you
really liate your Aunt . Fanny so much
that you want to that you want to"
' 'She choked and sought for her hand
kerchief; suddenly she began to cry.
"Oh, see here," George said. "I don't
hate you, Aunt Fanny. That's silly. I
don't" ,
"You do! You do! You want to1
you want to destroy the only-thing
that I that I ever" . And, unable to
continue, she became Inaudible in her
handkerchief.
George felt remorseful, and his own
troubles were lightened : all at once it
became clear to him that he had been
worrying about nothing. He perceived
that his Aunt Amelia was indeed an
old cat, and that to giveher scandal
ous meanderlngs another thought
would be the height of folly. By no
means Insusceptible to such pathos as
that now exposed before him, he did
not lack pity for Fanny, whose almost
spoken confession was lamentable ;
prove to be, and if it Ms,, it would be
worth the long struggle. we had with
him to get him to givg up and come.
I'm afraid that in myanxiety to get
him to do what the '.ioctors wanted
him to, I wasn't able t$back up Broth
er George as I should $n his difficulty

Inert semblance of the quiet man who
had been always so quiet a part of his
son's life so quiet a part that George
had seldom been consciously - aware
that his father was Indeed a part of
his life. As the figure lay there, its
very quietness was w?at was most life
like; and suddenly it struck George
hard. And in that unexpected, racking
grief of his son, Wilbur Minafer be
came more vividly George's father
than he had ever been In life.
When George left the room, his arm
was about his black-robed mother, his
shoulders were still shaken with sobs.
He leaned upon his mother ; she gently
comf6rted him; and presently he re
covered his composure and became
self-conscious enough to wonder if he
had not been making an unmanly dis
play of himself, r "I'm all right again,
mother," he said awkwardly. "Don't
worry about met you'd better go He
down, or something; you look pretty
pale." - " '
Isabel did look pretty pale, but not
ghastly pale, as Fanny did. Fanny's
grief was overwhelming ; she stayed in
her room, and George did not see her
until the next day, a few minutes be
fore the funeral, when her haggard
face appalled him.
The annoyance gave way before a
recollection of the sweet mournfulness
of his mother's fata, as she ha'ijl said
good-by to him at the station, and of
how lovely she looked In her mourning.
He thought of Lucy, whom he had seen
only twice, and he could not help feel
ing that in these quiet interviews he
had appeared to her as tinged with
heroism she had shown, rather than
sold, how brave she thought him.
When he went back to college, what
came most vividly to George's mind,
during retrospections, was the despair
ing face of his Aunt Fanny. Again and
again he thought of It ; ; he could not
avoid its haunting. Her grief had been
so silent, yet It had so amazed him.
George felt more and more compas
sion for this ancient antagonist of his,
and he wrote to his mother about her:
"I'm afraid poor Aunt Fanny might
think now father's gone we won't want
her to live with 'us any longer and be
cause I always teased her so much she
might think I'd be for turning her out.
I don't know where on earth she'd go
or what she could live on if we did do
something like this, and of course we
never would do such a thing, but I'm
pretty sure she had something of the
kind on her mind. She didn't say any
thing, but the way she looked is what
makes me think so. Honestly, to me
she looked just scared sick. You tell
her there Isn't any danger in the world
of my treating her like that. Tell her
everything Is to go on just as it al
ways has. Tell her to cheer up!"
Isabel did more for Fanny than tell
ing her to cheer up- Everything that
Fanny Inherited from her father, old
Aleck Minafer, had been invested in
Wilbur's business; and, Wilbur's busi
ness, after a period of illness corre
sponding in dates to the Illness of Wil
bur's body, had died just before Wil
bur did. George Amberson and Fanny

"He's Isabel's only child. He's an
Amberson. He's a boy." - - - -
"Weil, Mister Bones, of these three
things which are the good ones ?m5
which are the bad ones?" - - --'
"AH of them," said Eugene. - -
George took no conspicuous part in
either the academic or the social cele
brations of his class; he seemed to re
gard both sets of exercises with a tol
erant amusement, his own "crowd'
"not going In much for either of those
sorts of things," as he explained to
Lucy. What his crowd had gone in tor -remained
ambiguous ; some negligent
testimony Indicating that, except for
an i astonishing reliability which the
all seemed to have attained In mattei
relating to musical comedy,, they had
not gone in for anything. Certainly
the question one of them put to Lucy,

Said Awkwardly.
and he was granted the vision to uu
derstand that his mother also pitied says she says he's dd
Fannv infinitely more than he aid. go nome,
This seemed to explain everything.
He patted the unhappy lady awk
wardly upon her shoulder. "There,
here!" he said. , "I didn't mean any
thing. , Of course the only thing to do
about Aunt Amelia is to pay no atten
tion to'her. It's all right. Aunt Fanny.
Don't cry. I feel a lot better now, my
self. Come on ; I'll drive back there
with you. It's all over, and nothing's
the matter. Can't you cheer up?"
Fanny cheered up ; and presently the
customarily hostile aunt and nephew
were driving out Amberson boulevard
amiably together In the hot Sunshine.

CHAPTER XI. -
"Almost" was Lucy's last word on
the last night of George's vacation
that vital evening which she had half
consented to agree upon for "settling
things" between them. "Almost en- j
gaged," she meant. And George, dis
contented with the "almost," but con
tented that she seemed glad to wear a
sapphire locket with a tiny photograph
of, George Amberson Minafer Inside It,
found himself wonderful In a new
world at the final instant of their part-
lug. For, after declining to let him
kiss her "good-by,H as If his desire for
such a ceremony were. the most pre
posterous absurdity In the world, she
had leaned suddenly close to him and
left upon, his cheek the veriest feather
from a fairy's wing.
She wrote him a month later:
"No. It must keep on beingN almost.
"Isn't almost prettj pleasant? . You
know well enough that I care for you.
I did from the first minute I saw you.
and I'm pretty sure you knew it I'm

tremulously, when the atter appeared.
"Poor fellow !" he said.tjand patted him
repeatedly upon the shoulder. 'Poor

"owned not a penny and owed not a
penny," he continued, explaining his
phrase. "It's like the moment just be
fore drowning : you're not under water
and you're not out of it. All you know
Is that you're not dead yet."
He spoke philosophically, having his
"prospects" from his father to fall
back upon; but Fanny had neither
"prospects" nor philosophy. However,
a legal survey of Wilbur's estate re
vealed the factUhat his life Insurance
was left clear of the wreck ; and Isa
bel, with the cheerful consent of her
son, promptly turned this salvage over
to her sister-in-law. Invested, it; would
yield something better than nine hun
dred dollars a year, arid thus she was
assured of becoming neither a pauper
nor a dependent, but proved to be, as
Amberson said, adding his efforts to
the cheering up of Fanny, "an heiress,
after all, in spite of rolling mills and
the devil." .
The collegian did not return to his
home for the holidays. Instead, Isa
bel joined him, and they went South
for the two weeks. She was proud of
her stalwart, good-looking son at the
hot el where they ' stayed, and It, was
meat and drink to her when she saw
how people stared at him in the lobby
and on the big verandas indeed, her
vanity In him was so dominant that
she was unaware of their staring at
her with more Interest and an ad
miration 4 friendlier than George
evoked.
Both of them felt constantly the dif
ference between this Christmas time
and other Christmas times of theirs
in all, it was a sorrowful holiday. Bur
when' Isabel came East for George's
commencement, in June, she brought
Lucy with her and things began to
seem different, especially when George
Amberson arrived with Lucy's,, father
on class day. Eugene had been In New
York, on business ; Amberson easily
persuaded him to this outing ; and they
made a cheerful party of it, with the
new graduate of course the hero and
center of it all.
: His uncle was a fellow alumnus.
"Yonder was where I roomed when '.
was here," he said, pointing out one o:
the university buildings to Eugene. "
In; response to investigations of her
seemed to point that way : "Don't yo
think," he said, "really, don't yo
think that being things is rather bettei
than doing things?" 'j
He said "rahthuh bettuh" for "rathe
better," and seemed to do it deliberate
ly, with perfect knowledge of what h
was doing. Later, Lucy mocked him
to George, and George refused to

What else he had acquired, It might

mation necessary for such a feat just
ong enough to give a successful per
formance; then It would evaporate ut
terly from his brain, an& leave him un
disturbed. George, like his "crowd,
not only preferred "being things" t'
"doing things," but had content 1 hlxfr
self with four years of "being thing"
as a preparation for going on "beinf,
things." And when Lucy rather shylj
pressed him for his friend's probable
definition of the "things" it seemed m
superior and beautiful to be, George
raised his eyebrows slightly, meaning
that she should have understood with
out explanation; but he did explain:

Lucy gave the horizon a long look
but offered no comment.

fully. "But she will, as time goes on."
"TlmeU have to hurry, then. It seem
