Aided by his DO vivid imagination, he was conjuring p for her impossible people of whom, s he had been of her father, he was in ainful ignorance. Wisely, Roger Balantine deported him to the Far West. jYou need,” he told him, “distance to see a, my lad. You are growing short of light. Go away — stay away — until your jision clears.” I When Lew Pam got well .Sheila turned jo the hope chest. “I cant,” she told jloger Ballantine, when he offered to jielp her until such time as “that young jss gets over it.” “You are dear — but I ant.
