"I'm afraid I'm inflicting myself on prised if Biddy were there too. If he happened to t>e in England in April he always made a pilgrimage to the Shakespeare Festival.

A man offered himself â€" a man with a great position â€" and I accepted him and it was worse than ever, so I fled from it allâ€" to Priorsford. I loved it from the first, the little town and the river and the hills, and Bella Bath- gate's grim honesty and poor cookery! And you came into my life again and I found I couldn't marry the other man and his position " "Pamela, can you really marry a fool like me? . . . It's my fault that we've missed so much, but thank God we haven't missed everything. I think I cou'.d mako you happy. I wouldn't ask you to stay at Laverlaw for more than a month or two at a time. We I would live in London if you wanted to. I could stick even London if I had you, but if you will give me half an hour I shall be grateful." "You must tell me about Biddy," Pamela said, as she sat down in her favorit*r chair. "Draw, up that basket chair, won't you? and be comfortable. You look as if you were ju.st going to dart away again. Did Biddy .say any- thing in particular?" "He told me to come and .see you. . . I won't take a chair, thanks. I would rather stand. . . . Pamela, I know it's the most frightful cheek, but I've cared for you exactly twenty-five years. Y'ou never had a notion of it, I know, and of course I never said anything, for to think of your marry- ing a penniless, dreamy .'â- â- ort of idiot was absurdâ€" you who might have mar- ried anybody I I couldn't stay near you loving you as I did, so I went right out of your life.

No, that's not the right word, t>€cauKe I loved you well enough to wish happine-ss for you whoever brought it. I sometimes heard of you from one and another, and I never forgot â€" never for a day. Then my uncle died and my cousin was killed, and I came back to Priors- ford and settled down at Laverlaw, and was content and quite fairly happy. The War came, and of course I offered my services. I wasn't much Ufco, but, thank goodness, I got to France and got some fighting â€" a second-lieutenant at forty! It was the first time I had ever felt myself of some real use. . . . Then that finished and I was back at Laverlaw among my slioep â€" and you came to Priors- ford. The moment I saw you I knew that my love for you was as strong and young as it was twenty years ago " Pamcia sat fingering a fan she had taken up to protect her face from the blaze and looking into the fire. "Pamela. Have you nothing to say to me?" "Twenty-five year.« is n long time," Pamela said slowly. "I was fifteen thou and you were twenty. Twenty year.«i ago I was twenty and you were twr'nty-fivcâ€" why didn't you speak then, Ltwis? Y'ou went away and I thought you didn't care. Does a man never think how awful it is for a wo- man who has to wait without speak- ing? You thought you were noble to go awny. ... I suppo.se it must have bten for some wise reason that the good God made men blind, but it's hard on the women. You might at least ha\e given me the chance to say No." "I was n coward. But it was un- believable that you could care. You iicv;-r showed me by word or look." "Was it likely? I was proud and marry you we'll live at Laverlaw. I love your green glen already; it's a place after my own heart. We won't trouble London much, but spend our declining years among the sheep â€" un- less you become suddenly for public honors and, as Mrs. Hope desires, enter Parliament." "There's no saying what I may do now. Already I feel twice the man 1 was." They talked in the firelight and Pamela said: "I'm not sure that our happiness won't be the greater because it has come twenty years late. Twenty years ago wo would have taken it pretty much as a matter of course. We would have rushed at our happiness and swallowed it whole, so to speak. Now, with twenty lonely, restless years behind us we shall go slowly, and taste ©very moment and be grate- ful. Years bring their compensation. . . . . It's a funny world. It's a nice, funny world." "I think," said lyewia, "I know some- thing of what Jacob must have felt after ho had served all the years and at last took Rachel by the hand " " 'Served' is good," said Pamela in mocking tones.
