rtss now 111 thank you for my she had not virgie thought thank ully afterward put him out of the house she had kept her temper nd she had kept her head but vhen he had gone rattling away in is old car she strode the length of he room and punched the fire sav jely the old pea hen the old ant eater put me out of business will he my mill s falling in is it from a corner came marian s vorried voice he might do it mother he might do it virgie was grateful for an outlet for her sizzling wrath he might run for congress he might try to blow up whiteside mountain too but where would he get nowhere he s trying to bluff me out the penny pinching old hound dog he s sore because he couldn t marry mylnill and get it without putting out a cent i know wallace withers i ve known him most of his life as well as though i had stirred up the mud to make him but the mill is shabby mother all the metal roofing is rusty and the mortar falling out of the bricks nnd tom has propped up the fence in a dozen places red burned in virgie s cheeks her eyes shot blue sparks i should spend money to fancy up the mill on the outside whan the men aren t back on full pay yet when i can t even discount my bills your father never asked for more than thirty days in his hfe and i m thankful if i can get anything paid off in ninety we only took sixty for the new parts for the jordan machine mrs morgan much obliged lucy stick with me will you i seem to need a rouple of friends father marian persisted had d fashioned ideas you know thai lother he was too conserative r these times v looked up a d s p re at the straight strong judi line of his lips at his thoughtful cautious eyes the look heartened her stopped the odd quivering in her knees the shaken cold anger that tore at her david was with her he had died but he had not taken his spirit away from the mill it walked there stood over the blow pits and the great digesters and deckers where the raw pulp was steamed and thinned and ground and dried one fiber that would one day be milled into missals for nuns or paper on which letters would be written to old mothers she gave david a look that reached a hand to him through this strange gloom this shadow which was as fearsome and intangible as the swoop of a hawk through the wind your fathers way was an old fashioned way she said but so are a lot of things old fashioned things like good credit and a good name things like fairness and hon or and decent dealing they ve in vented some err art methods but they ve never invented anything that takes the place of those old fash ioned things we could paint the roller mill suggested lucy faintly we could let the boys work on ft slack days and have wallace withers walk by and see that he s got us scared let him build his pulp mill i m not going to be stampeded into changing my ways morgan pulp is known wherever men make paper nobody gives a darn if it s milled in a pole shack with a brush roof it s good pulp lucy you put all this in the form of a report i might want to prove some time that old withers threatened me i m going to call that lawyer tonight and go over to see tom the first thing in the morning and enjoin those crooks from cutting that timber marian stood up slim and grave and gallant all rig t mother if you re going to fight we if fight with you virgie i grimnlbb i elted and her eyes misted briefly i was just standing i ere wishing to the lord that i h id a st n lift bets pretty thick for d woman son t times but if wt hin u gelher e can beat em u c t iw mmh and take lucy i n t mokt l s sie go with you 1 i i wdni you coming back on th i r id alone mother i ve dmi n it aknc a hundred times i know that and i e been mak ing pulp for years but now all of a sudden somebody tal ls a notion lo burn down the mill though she r sl at ntervalj to take bromides virgie c uld n t sleep her battling bp ril wa roused she found herself dentine her fists in the dark making up savage and tell ne speeches and muttering fragments ff them aloud the thin blue winter dawn came late she had already given up hope of rest when the east began to be pearl and aquamarine she got up and dressed putting on her good blue suit her best silk blouse she would have preferred going into ac tion in her old corduroys and boots but this fight todav was to be one of wits of law and shrewdness not to be conducted in a disreputable old hat jerked belligerently over one eye at least thank goodness her ene my was now standing forth m the open the secret hawk that beat dark wings between her and the sky was a thing of form and definition and she felt sure that if she could keep payne and hooper and wal lace withers from getting possession of the timber area on hazel fork she could defeat their schemes she knew every inch of land every standing tree every foot of availa ble pulp wood for a hundred miles around what little wallace with ers owned even counting the acre age he had bought from perry ben nett would not go far no man in his right mind would put money into a mill with so scant a supply as that in prospect and the rest except for tom s rich heritage was tied up by leases by power concerns or lum ber people or by the great cham pion mill except what she herself controlled she knew that wallace withers would extend himself to destroy her no pestilence ever set loose in any clime could work the havoc wrought by an ignorant bigoted man work ing ruthlessly for his own ends especially when under this fierce cold passion for eminence there burned the moving fury of a person al spite wallace was e vain and jnscrupulous man disdained no ethics would deter him no reasoning ouch him he would break her if he could because only by reducing her to suppliant meekness could he rebuild the brittle tower of his own prime conceit she made a cup of coffee in the kitchen and drank it black and hot lossie came scuffing in m bedroom clippers her hair plastered stiffly in a net my goodness she
