THE FAREWELL
Chapter Eight
SULIET leaned against the
open balcony window of her
bedchamber and looked out
Into the twilight "Come, gentle
night," ehe pleaded. "Come, loving,
Mack-brow'd night Give me my
Romeo."
Bow long the hours seemed since
she and he had knelt in marriage.
Her nurse burst tn upon her,
vweeplng and wringing her hands.
Juliet wheeled about In fright
""What news, nurse," she cried, "that
Vtnou dost wring thy hands,"
Ah, well
dayl" wept
nurse. "He'
dead. He's dead.
He's dead."
Juliet's face grew ashen white.
"We are undone, lady," sobbed the
nurse.
The girl seized her shoulder and
shook her violently. Why were they
undone? Who was dead? .What had
happened?
"Tybalt Is gone " began the
-nurse.
At the mention of Tybalt's name
Juliet almost fainted with relief.
What ever had happened ha.l over
taken Tybalt but at tfci next
words her eyes grew wide wiu: hor
ror "... and Romeo banished," sob
bed the nurse. "Romeo that killed
him he is banished."
Juliet felt the room sway before
her, "O God!" she moaned. "Did
Romeo's hand shed Tybalt's blood?"
"It did. Alas the day; it did.
There's no trust, no faith, no hon
esty in Romeo. Shame ' come to
.Romeo."
"Blistered be thy tongue for such
a wish," cried Juliet fiercely.
"Will you speak well of-him that
killed your cousin?" demanded. the
other.
"Shall I speak 111 of him that 13
my husband? Ah, poor my Lord.
That 'bantehed' that one word
'banished' hath slain ten thou
sand Tybalts. 'Romeo is banished.
To speali the word. Is father,
mother, Tybalt, Romeo, Juliet, all
slain. All dead."
She threw herself upon the bed
and wept with such abandon that
the nurse, frightened, ran to find
Friar Laurence. Now was the time
erhen the churchly man alone might
4elp.
In Friar Laurence cell lay Ro
meo, desperate with grief and
anxiety.
"Hence from Verona art thou
banished," said the Friar gravely.
Romeo beat his hands in despair.
"Be patient," soothed the Friar.
"The world is broad and wide."
There is no world without Ve
rona's walls," answered Romeo.
"Only purgatory, torture and hell
Itself."
"But this 13 dear mercy," ex
claimed hl3 confessor, "and thou
lee'st it not"
"Tis torture and not mercy!"
cried Romeo. "Heaven is where
Juliet-lives, and every cat and dog
and little mouse! every unworthy
thing that live here in heaven may
look on her, but Romeo may not!"
He stared about him desperately.
"Hadst thou no poison mixed," he
begged. "No sharp-ground knife, no
sudden means of death to kill. me?"
' "Art thou a man?" demanded
Laurence. "Thy wlldacts denote the
unreasonable fury of a beast! -Thou

then thou canst not pass to Man
tua. At Mantua thou shalt live until
we find time to Maae your mar
riage; to reconcile friends; to beg
pardon of the prince, and call thee
back with twenty thousand tlmea
more joy than thou went'st forth in
lamentation!"
A dawn of hope lighted Borneo's
face. "Go hence," continued the
Friar, "but," be warned, "be gone
by break of day. Sojourn in Man
tua. I'U find out your man, and
be shall signify from time to time
every good hap to you that chances
here. Give me thy hand, farewell."
Romeo aped through the darkness
to Juliet's garden. By a rope ladder
hung therefrom he ascended the
balcony and called to her.
She raised her weeping face from
the bed and listened, with a cry
she arose and ran to meet him.
They held each other close, and
then, with a long drawn sigh, she
led the way Into her chamber.
And the hours which had made
the day too long, now sped on
wings. Too soon the early morning
light filtered through the drawn
curtains. Romeo knew he must obey
the Friar's warning or all would
be lost Tenderly he released him
self from Juliet's embrace.
"And wilt thou be gone?" she
asked. "It is not yet near day."
A bird sang outside her window.
"It was the nightingale." she
pleaded "and not the lark that
pierced the fearful hollow of thine
ear. Believe me love. It was the
nightingale."
Romeo kissed her sadly. "It was
the lark. The herald of the morn; no
nightingale." He
threw onen tha
window. "Look,
love, what envi
ous streaks do
lace the severing clouds In yonder
east. Night's candles are burnt out
and Jocund day stands tiptoe on
the misty mountain tops." He turn
ed to her in all. tenderness. "I must
be gone and live," he whispered.
"Or. stay and die." ..... ...
She threw her arms about him.
"Ton : light is not daylight," she
pleaded, "t know it I " she .
faltered as her eyes filled with
tears. "It U 3ocae meteor that the
sun exhales." she went on hurried-
iy. "3ome meteor to be to thee this
night a torch-bearar and light thee
on thy way to llr.ntua." She held
him close. "Stay ye .. Thou need'Bt .
not be gone."
He kiasod her. "I am content," ha
whispered. 'So thpu.wiljt have jt jjpt .
I'll say yon grey is not the morn- ,
ing's eye; nor that Is notithe lark',,
whose no.es do beat the vaulty
heaven so high above our heads."
He lifted her face to his. "I have '
more care to stay than will to go," ."
he cried. "Come death, and wel- '
come!"
"It Is the day," she wept and
shuddered In his arms. "Hie hence;
bo gone. It U the1 lark 'that sings
so out of time. O now be go.io. '
ho looked fearfully out ho window.
"More light and light it grows! '
"Madame!" called her nurse soft
ly through the door. "Your lady
mother is coming to your chamber.
The day is broke. Be wary."
The lovers clasped each other In
a last embrace. "Window," cried
Juliet, "let day In and let life out."
"Farewell, farewell," murmured
Romeo and kissed her long.
With arms entwined they walked
out onto the balcony. And then
quickly, as if to tear himself away
before the ' pain became too great,
he seized the ladder ana oegan his
descent
"Art thou gone so?" Juliet cried.
"Love, lord ay husband, friend!"
Her tears fell fast "I must hear
from thee every day in the hour,"
she begged. An a minute were are
many days O, by this count I
shall be much In years ere I again
behold my Romeo!" She leaned far
out over the ' balcony to see him
more. U, tninK at inou we snan ever
meet again?" she walled.
"I doubt It not," he comforted. -
"All these woes shall serve for
bweet discourses ' in our time to
come." He tried to smile. "Dry sor
row drinks our blood. Adieu. Adieu."
He turned quickly and spea to
the garden wall.
"Oh fortune, fortune," she wept
"Alt men call thee fickle. Be fickle
fortune. For then, i hope, thou wilt
not keep turn long, but send him ,
back." v .;v. ;V ; . V.
She watched Romeo disappear
over the wait He was gone now."
When would he come back to her? ,
She turned from the balcony and, ,5,.

membering names but'- nobody can
say he doesn't know his cotton ma

ing blond girl who just passed T" The
question was addressed to Mr. Ruten
berg as the young lady went by on
her way to the postoffice." "That is
Miss Pique", answered Mr." Ruten
berg. ."And", he volunteered, "she is
a very. fine young woman", "Pique?"
questioned a woman standing near.
"I didn't know that was her name."
Somebody wanted . to know at this
point whether or not the young lady
was a visitor in town, and so on.
"No"," explained -Mr. ' Rutenberg,
"Miss Pique, is the young'' lady who
has charge of the vacation Bible
School around at the Baptist Church."
- "Well", remarked the questioner,
"that certainly does not sound like
the name I -read in the Perquimans
Weekly, which carried some stories
about the young lady's work Miss
Poplin was the name."
There was a general laugh as Mr.
Rutenberg, somewhat chagrinned,
admitted the name was Poplin and
not Pique'.
Richard Futrell, of Rich Square,
who is spending this week in Hert

close attention to what the minister
says in church was indicated the

Whether or not there is any truth
in the statement that the new

have been so tempting that the fact
is demoralizing, I do not attempt to
say, but rumor has it that the Loaf

a soft ball game to be played on the
town lot which was recently equipped
with flood lights by the town for
night playing, and that it hasn't
been possible to arrange a game as
