Sixth Installment
SYNOPSIS
Three weeks after a cream coiori-u
roadster had been found wrecked in
the sea at the foot "f a cliff, a girl
calling herself Anne Cushing appears
it the desert town Murston. She ha<
bought, sight unseen, a ranch located^
thirty miles away. Barry Duane, her
nearest neighbor and his man Boone
I Petry procure a reliable woman f"r
I her and In Barry's car, loaded clown
? with supplies, they start across the
desert. In Alarston her reticence has
? roused suspicion. Barry and Anne
become more than neighbors, and
when Anne is lost in the hills and
rescued by Barry, each realises that 1
something more than friendship exists
between them.
A quiet mood seemed to have
descended on Barry. When the
coffee was finished lie smoked for a
few moments in silence, his eye*
coming back every few seconds to
the clear little profile turned toward
him. Anne felt that restless
scrutiny.
"Weren't you," , she asked sud
denly, "going to tell me about the
town of Duane?"
"So I was." lie shifted his posi
tion. "It's just the story of a'man
who wanted to turn a "icsert into a
garden. He was my uncle, Robert
Duane. He worked like a giant
tor it. and died broken and ridiculed,
and discrediteJ."
His face was black as he ?taud
down at the lake.
"He loved this country. He came
here from the Fast years ago, and
he came across this lake and took
over a big tract of land: He saw
that this lake was the biggest body
of water in mile-;, but useless to
those dry plains down there, and be
began dreaming of the things that
could be done.'
"I see." said Anne softly. 'It
wus a big dreanl."
"Yes, it was big. It was par
ticularly big for one man to swinj.
He built this place, and after that
I came and lived with him every
summer." ' )
He stopped, frowning remini
scent Iv.
"When they actually starti <1
work on the dam. people began to
take serious notice. They remem
bered what was being: done in ti e
Imperial Valley. 9 \Kaglc Lake
swarmed with workers, and the
dam grew. "And then tfie big day
came. *
'? "It was a great day. No matter
what came of it, it can never l>e
anything less than that. The signal
was given and the water rushed
down the sluiceways to make tits
wilderness blo>som. Everybody
cheered, and Uncle Bob gripped my
shoulder and said, 'Barry,, you and j
I believed in this when other people
laughed. When I go, this is to be
yours."
Barry looked at her with a
twisted grin.
"So this is my inheritance, and
anybody down in Marston would
tell you that it's 110 better thiili
junk. For after the first big mo
ment, the tragedy came. The irri
gation was there, but it didn't ir
rigate. The valley was fuli of gravel
sinks that no one bad suspected,
and the water drained off as fast *?
it was run in. It was a .complete,
smashing failure."
"Oh, how dreadful!" It was all
that she found herself able to say.
Barry threw away a half-con
sumed cigarette and arose.
"The Finos isn't the only stretch I
of arid land around here. There's
the Junipero, bigger and better, and
with a soil ? it isn't really tand ?
that will give its very heart to you
for a steady supply of water. I
want to use this dam to irrigate the
Junipero."
He ran a brown l and through
his hair and laughed abruptly.
"I suppose you think I'm chasing
an elusive rainbow?"
"Why shouldn't -you, if you've
found one that's wopth chasing?"
, "You darling!" His eyes kindled.
? "For these kind words. . . " (
She jumped up and ?ave him a
prim little marionette's bow. "Conic
on, lazy, I want to go dowh by the
lake again."
He arose obligingly and followed
her, overtaking her in two strides.
They went down side by side, and
where the pitch was steep he caught
her arm in his. Within a few yards
of the water's edge he spread out
his coat for her to sit on and
dropped down beside |jer.
"Anne, will you marry me?"
"You're a sudden person, Barry."
She hedged for time. "Do you real
ize that we'd never met until a few
weeks ago? Just four "
"I;our days was enough for me.
Anne, darling, I don't want to rush
you. but you know how I feel, don't
you? I love you. I keep seeing
you here all the tin??, every day,
every hour. You and I together. . .
Ann !"
\\ urmth flooded over her; there
was a sin^in^ tir;jile in her veins.
>Why not? W'.o in that distant,
outside world would ever know?
Just the two of them, here in this
NOTICE OF EXECUTION SALE 1
( v NORTH CAROLINA,
JACKSON COUNTY.
THE BANK OF FRANKLIN
vs
W. C. CUNNINGHAM, J. A. PORT
ER, S. L. FRANKS, and W. L. HIO
DON.
By virtue of an execution directed
to the undersigned from the Super
ior Court of Macon County in tho
secluded place.
Temptation tugged ?.t her. "Take
your chance!" it whispered. "Take
it! . . . "
^ And then recollection flooded
hack, crawling over her like an oily
)wave.
"Anne, look at me!"
Her throat felt stiff and dry. "Oh.
Barry,' please1, We've been such
good friends. Don't let s spoil it.
"Oh ? spoil it!" The warmth died
out of his face. He looked stung
and hurt, and suddenly tight lipped.
% "Sorry!" he said curtly. "I must
have got the wrong idea. I thought
? well, it's been rather nice, going
around like this, I had a feeling. . .
a hope ... it was getting to mean
something to you, too . . . my, con
ceit. probably."
The words came jerkily. Hi
looked up suddenly. "See here, is
it because of somebody else, or just
because I'm myself?"
She shook her head. "There isn't
anybody el$e, And I hate to hear
you talk like that. Harry, isn't it
possible to like ? to be awfully fond
of somebody without ? ? "
"Not for you and me:" Marry
looked at her moodily, softening be
cause she really did look unhappy
abopt it, and because she was so
lovely ? so damnably lovely.
"All right," he said, and forced a
smile. "We won't let it/, spoil
things. It's not your fault if I
don't nuke a hit with you. Hut
don't think" ? he reached out and
laid a firm clasp on her wrist ?
"don't think that I'll give up with
out, an everlastingly good try."
She Woiild not look at hint.
Couldn't he see that he was tearing
ly r heart out? "U's' rio u>e, Harry,
1 like you awfully, but? ? "
"I don't want to be liked." he said
savagely. "I'd want you to be ju>t
as crazy about me as I am about
you. I'd never be satisfied with
ju?t possessing ? I want ?1> of you."
All of her! She felt desolate and
a little frightened. It occurred to
her that no matter what came to her
now? love, friendship, trouble ? she
would always have something to
hide.
. A restless week crawled by. An
other, flat and, uninteresting, trudged
stolidly at its heels. 1 he day s were
just days, one of them plodding
stupidly alter another. Barry still
Came down to Trail's Knd, but he
seemed always to L?c 011 his way
somewhere else.
Playing around with Barry was
dangerous, hut letting him go left
a blank emptiness. Anne worked
violently, indoors and out, but the
zest had gone from it. Warmth
and color had gone.
The day had not been of the kind
to encourage a stiff morale. A hot
wind had been blowing in from the
desert for hours. Anne sat for a
while beside her tinkling little creek.
?'Miss Anne, are you out there?"*
"Coming, Martha. Anything I
can do?"
"I wish you'd do up that package
Boone's going to stop tor. I've left
some paper on the table."
Martha had left a sheet of news
paper spread out for her. Anne
looked down at it, idly.
A heading caught her eye. It
was a Lot Angeles paper, and it
was two months old. She leaned
over the spread-out sheet. Then
she wa? very still.
To Martha, out in the kitchen,
tlu-re came the sharp sound of
tearing paper.
"Oh, Martha, I've torn this!
Have y?? aajr more?"
The win was careless, but her
eyes were brilliant with ucitement
as she came to the kitchen door.
She tied the package up swiftly,
and then vanished into her own
room. The newspaper went also.
Once behind a closed door she
spread it out again with shaking
fingers. She read again, more care
fully this time, scanning each word
for some hidden meaning. Relief
was creeping all through her, warm
and lovely.
"Thank God," she whispered, "I
don't have to be afreid of that!"
The last words were shaky. . . .
Mustn't get hysterical.
When she came out a few mo
ments later there was a lilt in her
voice which Martha had not heard
for days.
"I'm going for a little run before
supper," she called, and went out
toward the corral. A few moments
later pinto and girl flew past the
kitchen window with a clear call
and a scurry of hoofs.
"Somethin's cheered her V up
mighty quick," she commented.
At 011c side of the room hung
two of Anne's dresses, freshly
ironed. Martha went into Anne's
room to put them where they be
longed. Then, arms akimbo, she
looked around. On a chair, half
concealed by an orange cushion lay
a folded newspaper. Martha picked
it tip.
"I do wonder what started her off
like that. Well, if it's in print it
can't he any secret."
Martha sat down to read. There
were only two, sheets of it and the
news would be stale, but she
plodded through it carefully. There
was political news, which slit
skipped. Somebody had been
brutally shot down in a hold-up. A
bold headline featured the latest di
vorce scandal, and a "mystery
woman" who had vanished into the
blue; a much smaller cne noted the
death of a once prominent financier.
Some young girl had been drowned ?
and the body had not yet been re
covered, anci a very rich man had
offered a reward for it. A brief two
inches of type said that the man
found badly wounded in the out
skirts of Ventura had been identi
fied, but refused t name his as
sailant. A screen luminary had just
received his final decree of divorce.
Martha read patiently.
"Murders and suicides and di
vorces!" she sniffed. "I don't see
much in them to cheer anybody up.
Hmp!"
There was a spot on Barry's
homeward way? or rather, out of
his way ? wh.re Trail's Knd was in
full view. He detoured until lie*
reached it and pulled up. half ?
tempted to turn ami ride down.
( hit from the modest group of
low buildings a dancing speck came,
a girl and a pinto horse. IIow
Anne did love to ride!
The pinto was sweeping on glori
ously. They would pass almost
beneath him. He turned Captain
about.
'*( >!d man. if we go around '>>?
the trail it will take half an hour
at your prettiest, but if we take
the old slide we can join the lady
pronti i."
< I 'n mto was a word that Captain
I understood. He took the steep
[plunge Valiantly 51ml without a
pause. /
"Hello. Any objection if I ride
along?"
"Reckless cowboy, aren't you:
Do you usually slide down hiilf a
mountainside to meet your friends?"
,, ".\*o, this is. something special.
Movie stuff." he added. dr;r? vat
inglv. half ashamed at his di <-.111.1 tic
plunge.
1 "It. -whs a real thr II. anyway, but
| for the first few seconds you had
i die well scared. Suppose Captain
had stumbled, or a ything?"
"Captain doesn't stumble or any- (
thing."
"Comet doesn't stumble, either."
Barry glanced UP with a quick
frown. "Pinto, we can't let thesf
two beat us, can we?"
"Don't think of trying such a
thing!"
His voice was rough with
anxiety.
"You did it."
"I've done it before," he said
doggedly. "It's a fool trick anyway.
One misstep, and you could be
killed or crippled for * the rest of
your life. And I'd always have to
remember that it had come about
through an act of mine."
Barry swung close, Us finger*
reaching for her hand.
"You're precious to MC, Anne,
whether you want to ll or not,
Please promise that you won't try
it. Not unless it's life or death."
"I might promise that. I wasn't
really going to anyway." She did
not take her hand away, and he
gathered up the other and held them
together.
"Is that all you can promise?"
She looked slowly ap at him.
"You won't ju*t be friend*,
Barry ?"
"No. There's nothaac to It. l'??
tried, but it won't ?mL"
The hands seeOMi to snuggle
down contentedly.
"I've tried too, Barry, and it
doesn't work at all."
! "Anne! Do you mean it?*'
Anne looked at him.
"Yon darling!" he said huskily,
and gathered her into his arms.
Time lost its meaning.
She looked up and caught his
eyes on her.
"There isn't the least reason why
we shouldn't be married right away,
is there? How about ? tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow!" Anne sat up
straight at that. Indeed I won't I
Do give me a minute to feel en
gaged."
"I nearly lost you once, and I'm
not taking any more chances.
Wednesday, then."
"Just quietly. Barry? Without
any fuss at all?" ? .
"As, quietly as you like. That
suits me. We'll have a honeymoon
at the Perch and take a trip later."
"I don't want a trip. I'd rather
stay right here."
"No trip? Maybe you'll change
your mind. There's lots of time
. . ."About that wedding day . .
"Likes his own way, doesn't he?
I'm taking an awfui chance . . .
Monday?"
"Monday. You know . . . it's
going to be pretty nice, isn't it?"
She nodded quickly. They sat
there together like two children,
suddenly shy.
