Brigit poked at a clump of moss among the tangled roots of the tree under which they sat, and sulked. "You must, dear. And you must buck up and break the engagement. It isn't fair," continued Pam, energetically, "to go on stealing their love." "I stealing their love! I! And what has he done to me, pray? Do you know that I haven't slept more than an hour at a time, for months?

Both her hungry neighbours made spasmodic attempts to eradicate from her mind the memory of their fanatical devotion to the rites of the table, and she smiled absently at them, wondering what they would have thought if she had politely thanked them for their silence! "My dear," said the Duchess, a few minutes later, sitting down in her favourite corner by the fire, "come and tell me about Pam."

'I wouldn't mind if I were paid wages and could spend the money as I liked. 'Poor old Pam! It is hard lines. I heard father tell the Rector he'd spent eighteen hundred at that sale. 'And I'm ashamed to face any of the tradesmen, said Pamela fiercely. 'Why they go on trusting us I don't know. Desmond looked out of the window with a puckered brow a slim figure in his cadet's uniform.

Pam Quin; flaxen pigtail; grown up nose; polite mouth, buttoned, little flaxen and pink old lady, Pam Quin, talking about her thirteenth birthday. Lucy Elliott, red pig-tail, suddenly sad in her corner, innocent white-face, grey eyes blinking to swallow her tears. Frances Elliott, hay coloured pig-tail, very upright, sitting forward and talking fast to hide her sister's shame.

'Look here, Pam, I wish you'd try and like her. I shall have a dreadful hump when I get to camp if I think she's going to make you miserable. 'Oh, I'll try, said the girl with dreary resignation. 'You know I'm not to see Beryl again? She looked up. Her brother laughed. 'Don't I see you keeping to that! If Aubrey's any good he'll marry her straight away.

Then they separated, Pam going up the sunny slope to her husband and children, Brigit, down through the deserted garden of a long uninhabited house, to the lonely sea. Brigit left the villa the next morning and went straight to London. And the nearer she got to the old town which contained, for her, the very kernel of life, her spirits mounted and mounted in spite of herself.
