the georgetown herald wednesday evening september 10 1941 hawk in the wind by helen topping miller f all the way back to the mill she kepi her eyes grimly on the road wills sat silent but his heart was leaping wildly and a little sjqiu twisted the confer of his mouth she was built fine and gallant and loyal as a silver sword she was cut from a golden width of the fab ric of dream for a dream like that a man could wait a lifetime joiiully 1 virgie went to the mill that sat urdoy morning with her face set like the face on a monument she had argued with herself through long hours of darkness why was she being such a fool being thrown into a tense panic by wal lace withers she could mill pulp and she could sell it she had proved that she could borrow money and pay it back she could manage humble men and make important ones respect her even if wallace bought up her notes she could pay she had kefit her credit good the mill would run on david would have laughed at wal lace withers or smiled his dry one sided smile for david had seldom laughed he had been intent and she could manage humble men and make important ones re spect her grave and hery like marian but he fought an army of enemies and come through his mitl should run on very high headed virgie climbed the steps of her oflice and there lucy fielms looked nt her with a tragic face the west virginia pe pie have canceled she said what the west virginia order they canceled by wire this morning but their stuff is already milled it s practically rexiy to go what reason did they jivl none at all it was a very short message they canceled lucy was wan faced her fingers were un certain as she opened t tradepaper and indicated a pangraph i jusi saw this do you think it could have had anything to do with it virgie scanned the column the paragraph lucy pointed out was headed morgan people in trouble the morgan mills so the type stated were experiencing serious labor trouble the outgrowth of a shootmg affair on the property of the company mr gordon cragg prominent financier and timber magnate so the story ran had been shot and dangerously wounded by thomas pruitt superintendent of the morgan plant somebody ought to show this to tom virgie rammer d flatly i don t suppose anyb ever called him thomas tn his but we depended on that west virginia order lucy worried theyve never canceled before i just looked through the files theyve been buying from us for eighteen years we depend on that order for the tax money ill have to go up there i sup pose and argue with them vir gie said patiently payne and hooper and withers et al are get ting in some fancy underground work how can you go with toms trial starting monday young daniels will have to go virgie sat erect gain at least here was something that could tie done something definite and on the offensive go get him lucy while lucy was gone across the yard virgie thumbed thejnail over wt scarcely seeing tfce type that her ttom would go on trial before a jury and any sentence will kill him r t would be kinder to hang him id be done with it she had an- t red that uhai troubled her most was her iwn ineffectiveness she had been icelv boastful she had defied the rid- as the irish are so prone to to ihe had talked widely and mag- nifkently about saving tom of sav- ing the mill and being undismayed bv wallace withers and now every recurring blow left her more help- e s more inarticulate futile pa thetlc m was a sickening spectacle for a proud woman to contemplate it was worse for an honest woman who could not bring herself to stoop to alibis up to now she had been able to do nothing to stem this tide of disaster somehow of course payne and hooper and wallace withers were behind this newest ca tastrophe she gave wallace credit he was overlooking nothing virgie regarded her chemist net mouth drawn severely straight for a working man she said you re very elerant this morn ingl daniels wore his good clothes a clean shirt a jaunty tie he was a trifle pale but he faced her coolly im sorry mrs morgan he said but i m not working today i was checking over the laboratory i am resigning my position with you today virgie let the old octagonal clock tick off a measured minute while she looked him up and down lucy stood like a statue white as death motionless hardly breathing so they got you too did they virgie said presently daniels flushed then the blood drained out of his fice my decision his not been influ enced by anyone he said stiflly i have felt for some time that i did not have your confidence mrs morgan chemistry is a responsi bility a serious responsibility i feel that i don t w sh n ai nio that responsibility any longer in a plant where i m not ti is re 1 who distrusts u virgie cnun tered her eyes i fr id l 1 he wis manifestly uncomfortable lucy drew a little str inlint brea j her hands at her thro it you were erv plainly sus picious of me mij mr rgan wlicr we lost that pulp and your mi tude yesterday and before that how much virgie cut in did wallace withers pay you to make that speech drj ejb glared affronledlv i have not been paid certainly not by mr withers virgie reached for the telephone call julia gill f r me ml led she said into it evenly julia this is virgie m rjan was wallace withers in town last night oh he came there to see mr daniels did he much obliged no that s all she hung up stanley daniels eyes were blaz mg i think i have a right to my own affairs he iid on my own time without being spied on or citpchized all the right in the world vir gie s tone was wooden the right to cheat

remember all the tragedies aren t played in the little theatre at the laboratory door lucy turned on daniels a livid face how can you do a thing like this to her he flushed angrily what chance did i have i could have explained but she wouldn t have listened you heard her give me the third de gfee telephoning mrs gill you could have explained what what was there to explain i could have explained
