CHAPTER XXX111.
DON’T feel right about
I letting you go home
alone,” she said. “Even if
you do feel all right now, you
might get worse before you get
home. Maybe you ought to have
some kind of a stimulant.”
“1 think maybe you’re right,”
Freeman said. “I’ll try a shot of
your father’s corn liquor,”
“A small shot,” she agreed, and
brought it to him. They all went
out on the front veranda and sat
in wicker furniture while Freeman
finished his drink.
“Yes, sir, it was one doggone hot
fight while it lasted,” Freeman
said, reminiscently, as he sat down
his glass. “I reckon I’m not the
man I used to be—or 1 wouldn’t
have passed out so sudden. But I
don’t want to take any credit away
from you, Regan. You are a hard-
fisted scrapper and you got plenty
of nerve. Even if I hated you—
which I don’t—I’d have to give you
that much credit.”
, “You had me licked up to the
very last second,” Eddie said, gen-
erously.
• “You are both idiots,” Marian
' declared, but somehow there was
no sting in her words. She could
' call them idiots and make it sound
like a compliment.
They were surprised when the
headlights of an automobile turned
• into the driveway. Marian’s father,
unexpectedly, had come home. A
friend had driven him over from
the station; Marian’s mothpr had
not returned, but would be back
the next day.
Marian ran down to the car to
meet him; Freeman followed her
and picked up Mr. Thorndike’s
baggage. Together they came up
on the veranda. Eddie got to his
feet.
“How do you do, Mr. Thorn-
dike?” he said, slightly uncertain.
, The older man looked at him
' with a faint surprise. “Good eve-
ning. Mr. Regan,” he said, a trifle
stiffly.
Suddenly his eyes in the better
light lit upon Freeman’s bruised
and discolored face.
“My goodness, Tomi What on
earth is the matter with your face?
You look like you’ve bee" gfiight-
ing’’ • • * "
“No,” Freeman lied, "I slipped
on the stain at home this after-
noon a*id fell dowp.. I just
dropped over for a few minutes—
going home now.”
Somehow the atmosphere be-
came noticeably awkward. Free-
man was going. The fight and
the return of Marian’s father had
spoiled Eddie’s evening and he,
too, was ready to go.

buggy was watting. Now, almost
definitely, Eddie realized that he
had established a firmer standing
than ever at the Thorndike home.
If Marian thought Imr father
was deceived by lorn Freeman’s
clumsily told story "about falling
downstairs, Mr. Thorndike speedily
corrected that impression as soon
as they were alone. The Gush on
Marian’s face betrayed an inward
excitement.
“What was the matter with
those two young fellows?” Mr.
Thorndike asked, returning to the
veranda from the house.
“Oh, just some of their foolish-
ness,” Marian said.
“You might as well tell me the
truth,” he said. As he passed be-
hind her, going to a chair, a hand
softly caressed her hair.
“They had a fight,” she con-
fessed, in a burst of frankness. “1
didn’t know it was -going to hap-
pen—there was nothing I could do
to stop them. But it did not hap-
pen here, thank Heaven!”
“Who won?”
“Mr. Regan.” ‘
Mr. Thorndike looked at Mar-
ian in surprise. •
“That’s surprising. I shouldn’t
have thought he would give Tom
any trouble at all. What did they
fight about?” *
.Marian’s color deepened.
“They didn’t tell me,” she said.
“From .what I got out of it they
met at Tocust Grove and got intp
an argument. Tom was knocked
unconscious and Eddie — Mr.
Regan —brought him here to the
house. We carried Tom upstairs
and put ice on him and held am-
monia undejr hjs nose until* he
came to. We were all frightened.”
“Let me .get this straight,” Mr.
Thorndike said incredulously. ‘‘You
say Mr. Regan knocked Tom ohv—
why, they didn't seem to be at all
angry with each other. They even
went away together like friends.”
“I-think they both realized what
idiots they were,” Marian explained.
“Anyway, they shook hands and
made up. I don’t think there will
be any more trouble between
them ” .

' press satisfaction, but he was cold-
ly silent- '
“It was a dreadful thing to hap-
pen, I know,” Marian went on with
a lowered voice. “You’ll never
know what 1 went through while
Tom was unconscious on the bed
upstairs.. 1 was afraid he might
never wake up.” »
“What were they fighting about,
I Marian?”
“Tftey didn’t say, father.”
“It’s no use trying to deceive
me, child. They fought Over you,
didn’t they?”
| Marian's voice sank. “I suppose
so.”
Mr. Thorndike compressed his
lips and shook his head.

“The fact that Paradine took up

a foreigner and the
commonest kind of a man. Doubt-
less he is a rogue, too. Marian,
we can’t have him coming here
any more.”
“1 don’t think you’re quite fair,
father,” said her plaintive voice.
“You don’t know him at all.”
"That’s just it—we don’t know
who he is or where he came from.
Chances are he sprang from the
lowest level of society. There’s
something of the street urchin
about him that I don’t like. No
Marian dear, you are too fine and
sweet to receive attentions from
such a man.”
“You're prejudiced—’’
“Of course, 1 am prejudiced — 1
am prejudiced in your favor,

and coarseness and vulgarity. You
are a girl, and you are not able to
judge a man as I am. You don’t

me, 1 don't Want to interfere with
any of your friendships with men
in your own ^station of life—you
are free to receive any honorable
gentleman of your class. But I
must forbid any penniless adven
turer coming here and taking ad

delicate tn you."
But 1 am not an heiress," she
protested. “We arb really poor
people ourselves. I wouldn’t at
tract a fortune hunter.”
"'lhat’s not the point,” her
father objected. “He is beneath
ou and unsuitable in every wav.
I must put my foot down and for-
bid ypu receiving him under anv
circumstances.”
Suddenly, Marian’s eves grew
larger and brighter—reflected an
unmistakable- inner vigor of
opinion.
”ff that’s the way you feel," she
said, her yoICe suddenly trembling
and passionate, “I’ll put my foot
