table and the rest of us just sal
there. Nobody spoke.
Then Fletch sprang after her
and stopped her in the French
door leading into the dining room.
“Where are the boys, Phil?” I
don’t see how any one could have
ignored the pleading in his voice.
Phil just laughed. “You would
never guess,” she derisively said,
and with another ripple of laugh
ter slipped under his arms, where
he had pinned her back against
the glass.
Fletch stood in the doorway
looking after her and the rest of
us sat around the table like
graven images. Then Fletch went
into the dining room and the rest
of us tried to eat our breakfast
as though nothing had happened.
T.ater we heard the' sharp, stac
ato beats of a horse on the drive.
It was Phillipa off somewhere.
Uncle Andrew gave a queer lit
tle laugh. “Women amuse me,”
he said.
“Well; Andrew, that’s one form
cf amysement you’ll never have
to pay your tax on,” Mr. Willson’s
voice was bitter.
Uncle Andrew said chortly, “I
wonder.” :
I looked around Cliff’s Edge, at
the ‘beauty and serenity of it, and
wondered why just one person
could bring so much bitterness
and heartache into a place that
had never known it. I wondered
for a moment if each place must
have its share. God knows my
Miss Jenny and Mr. Willson had
had their share of it before they
came to Cliff’s Edge, but Cliff’s
Edge had known only serenity
and peace and have until Phil
lipa came.
The house at Cliff's Edge sits
well back from the highway
and high above 4it, the broad
driveway from it curving down
ward to meet the main road. It is
a long gray house, with four huge
pillars in , the front forming a
small round portico at the en
trance to the great hall, which is
really the living room. On either
side are flagstone terraces. On
the library side of the house, the
terrace looks toward the woods
that seperate the house from the
farm buildings and the fields. On
the ,other side, the terrace looks
across the broad lawns that stretch
down to the rock gardens that
my Miss Jenny built in the aban
doned quarry fronting on the
highway.
- The quarry years ago had been
worked from the highway so that
where the stone and dirt had been
quarried away, the ground was
Jevel with the highway, but on
the remaining three sides the
walls of the quarry rose on a
jagged surface of rock and dirt
until they met the level of the
lawn. That is where the house
got its name, for from the road
side it did indeed sem to be on
the cliff’'s edge. My Miss. Jenny
'and the gardeners worked stead
ily for three years to turn those
’quarry walls into beautiful hang
ing gardens. Miss Jenny in pants
and boots used to clamber around
that cliff while I watched with
my heart in my throat, for that
quarry wail is ail ol 60 ieer deep.
In the spring now though they
are a patchwork of *“color and
people used ,to come from miles
around before gas rationing to see
them. They would park their
cars and walk acress the lawn
that now covers the floor of the‘
quarry.

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA,
I used to like to walk among
them and listen to their com
ments. But many times I would
hear someone say with little
laugh, looking up at the clifff, “If
I had this at the end of my lawn,
1 would want a good stout fence
up there. Might get absent-minded
and walk off.” “Absent-minded,”
someone would laugh back, “Is
that what you call it when you've
had one too many?”
On an impulse I got up from the
breaktast tabie and waiked
down to the garden”s edge and
looked over. I drew back startled
for Fletch was standing on the
floor of the quarry looking up
history which had been kept at
Cliff’s Edge when he went in the
Army, was parked along the road.
He was, I think, as startled to see

his hand and went over and goi
in the roadster. He was, I hoped
on his way to the mills, but T was
afraid he was off either to try to
find the boys or to find Phillipa
and to wring the truth out of her
or wring her neck.
I went back to the house and
gathered together my mending
and took it into the little morn
ing room, just off the library. Mr.
Willson and Dru were working in
Ithere. I could her him dictating
