In one quick glance shed seen that the girl had tried s to hide the by an inexpert dabbing of powder around her pretty blue eyes. After a minute Gramma said casually, "John left early. "And not a minute too soon, Nedra returned quickly, sinking deeper into the fireside chair and turning her face away. "Ho, so you two had a quarrel. Gramma knitted a little faster than before. No, a conflagration, an explosion, a dissolution, a parting of the Nedras voice was both ways. angry and vehement, and a little tearful too. "As bad as that?" Gramma inquired mildly. "I gave him his ring. Its all Nedra swallowed a sob over, quickly. Gramma made a little clucking sound but she went on plying her needles industriously. At last Nedra burst out unhappily. "Well, aren't you going to console me, or congratulate me, whichever the case may be?" Gramma stopped knitting for a moment, looked up. You and John have quarreled before. They are something like the squalls wed sometime meet up with on the Saint Lawrence when Id made a trip with your grandfather on his steamer. He was a you know. Well, thered be a terrible lot of noise and wind, and then the most beautiful calm you ever saw. Its natural for people in love like you and John to quarrel once in a while. Nedra sat up. Darling, youre an incurable sentimentalist. John and I are sensible and modern and analytical about love, as all young people are nowadays. Weve had several bitter quarrels since we became engaged, so weve simply had to face the fact that were not compatible and that marriage would be a mistake. "It was sensible of course to face this before it was too late. "Its the modem way, Nedra said in a small, desolate voice. "But love is not modem, Gramma observed quietly. Then she added, "but of course someday youll meet the right man. The sudden white horror of Ned-ra- 's sweet face was like a shock. "Therell never be another man, never I she exclaimed passionately, as she rose and left the room. Two or three days passed. One day at noon Nedra was lying on a chaise longue in her room, listlessly turning the pages of a magazine when Gramma burst in, excitingly waving two important looking tickets.

So it happened that in a very few more days, Gramma and Nedra found themselves on a fruit-bobound for the intriguing destination of Trinidad. And on their very first morning on deck, they both saw a tall, dark young man standing at the rail, gazing moodily out to sea. Nedras heart almost stopped. She clutched Grammas arm and drew her around to the other side so quickly that she almost lost her to bring these two stubborn kids together would come to nothing at all. It looked plain enough that John and Nedra had no intention whatever of making up their quarrel. . . . Next morning Mother Nature herself decided to take a hand. They awakened to find the ship tossing in a sudden gale, thunder roaring in demoniac fury, lightning flashing with every split second, the waves tearing at the ship as if possessed of the fury of a thousand devils. Nedra dressed hurriedly, went into Grammas room to find her also dressed, as early as it was. Nedra asked Is it a hurricane? shakily. I dont know, dear. I think Ill Just go and try to find out. Dont stay long. Im beginning to be frightened, Nedra pleaded. "Ill be back in a jiffy. Theres nothing to worry about. At least I think not.
