Edith Flood sat straight, almost
tensed, in her seat on the plane,
paying little attention to the sea
an#l none at all to the other pas
sengers. She was thinking, just
now, that Peter had been surpris
ingly considerate. He should have
been. But normally he sulked when
anwthing interrupted what he was
pleased to call his routine. Now
he hafl accepted Ede's departure
almest gracefully, even though it |
meant that he’d more or less have |
to shift for himself. !
Ede feared that things wouldl
be in @ mess until she returned,
and pointed this out to Peter. But
Peter asserted, cheerfully enough,
that he could manage. There was,
naturally, no question of this ac
companying her. Aside from the |
faet #hat he could be of no help, |
he occupied a prominent place in |

lold Cornelius Frey’s Black book.
Ede’s thoughts swung to the
things that might lie ahead. Now
that the first shock of the news
had worn off, she found herself
not inclined to worry too much.
It was serious, of course, or even
her brother Jeffrey, nervous and
somewhat hysterical, wouldn’t
have wired. But there was a
chance that it wasn’t terribly seri
ous. When anything went wrong,
Jeff Frey was always quite likely
to go off the deep end. It could
be that he had sent the telegram
without consulting anyone, fear
ing things that were never destin
ed to happen.
For her mind rejected the possi
bility of Cornelius Frey’s dying.
Hard, wiry, implacable, he would |
fight death as he had fought life,
with a kind of cold reasoned fury.
There was a powerhouse of
strength, she knew, in his tough
lean body. If any man could pull
through an illness, even a grave’
one, it would be her father.
As for her younger brother and
sister, Myron and Jennifer, Ede
scarcely gave them a thought. My
ron was the dreamy impractical
‘type, with vague blue eyes and an
indefinite offhand manner. Jef
frey would certainly have found
him no help in a crisis. And
brigit-haired little Jennifer was
only a kid. Suddenly Ede smiled.
She was constantly forgetting that
she hadn’'t been home in three
years. Jenn would be quite grown
up now, over 19. And remember
ing her, it occurred to Ede that
[Jenn might be something of a
| handful of the remote event of any
"l thing happening to her father.
| Jenn was eazer, strong - willed,
| selfish, with something of Corne
|lius Frey's own strength in her
character.
Well, there they were, thought
Ede. And Jeffrey had considered
it necessary to ‘wire her, who was
by way of being the black sheep.
But there was no use worrying
and planning until she got there
and knew the worst, or the best.
|So she sat in her seat, wondering
how her father would receive her.
Ten to one Jeff had sent that tele
gram without the knowledge and
approval of old Cornelius. |
I** & |
| Jeffrey Frey met her at the air
port. For all his broad shoulders,
he looked thin and peaked. There
was a harassed expression on his
sallow face. Ede's first thought
]was that Jeff had grown older,
Imuch older than the three years
gince she had seen him seemed to
warrant. £ y ’
“Well, Ede,” he said, kissing her,
“this is a rotten homecoming for
you.”
“It's serious, then?” Ede said
quickly.
“Just about as bad as it counl
be,” said Jeff. “Come on. The
car’s this way.” «
Be bundled her into it and they
started for the city.
“Now then, Jeff,” Ede said, “let’s
have it.”
Jeffrey’s tired face tightened.
“He simply cracked up, Ede. It
seemed to happen all at once. The
doctors say complications. But his
| heart’s the worst. He”—Jeff shook
|his head—*“he can’t possibly pull
through.”
“Does he,” she asked hesitantly,
“know that I'm coming?”
Jeff flashed her a quick lock
‘then turned his eyes to the road
'again. “He asked me to send you
‘that wire.”
“Oh,” said Ede, a little weakly.
Even in the shadow of the grave,
it would not be in Cornelius Frey’s
nature to forgive.
The Frey house on upper Fifth
Avenue was just as Ede remem
bered it. Gray and forbidding
from without; high-ceilinged, cool
and dark within.
* * -
Myron had not changed. He was
as vague and offhand as ever. He
greeted Ede casually, almost as
if she had never been away. But
Jennifer came forward auickly,
threw strong sun-browned arms
around her sister.
“Oh, darling,” she said, “I'm so
glad you've come.”
My little sister, Ede thought,
seems to have the makings of a
nice kid. She held Jennifer off
and looked at her. The angular
figure she remembered had re
solved itself into slim willowy
lines. Jenn was tall and straight,
coppery-haired, and with vivid
blue eyes. But the eager look was
still there though, obvicusly, Jenn
tried to conceal it beneath a thin
vail of sophistication. And Jenn’s
mouth was still small and deter
mined.
“You've grown up, baby,” Ede
said. “And you’re very beautiful.” |
And Jenn’s smile was like a light,
turned on suddenly.
“you'd better go right up, Ede,”
said Jeff. “He’s been asking for
you constantly.”
Ede went up the wide circular
staircase slowly. A pleasant-faced
nurse in a starched white uniform
met her at the top.

CHANGES MIND TOO LATE
HAMBURG — (AP) — Scream
ing and shouting, a nightshirt clad
man ran through the streets of
Stuttgart. He had poisoned him
self, but when the painful effects
of the poison made themselves felt,
the man changed his mind about
committing suicide and ran to the
doctor’s, However, he arrived too
late and died on the way to the
hospital.
What is believed to have been
the first production of chloroform
for use as an anaesthetic in Amer
ice was the work of a Nova Scotia
druggist in 1833.
