The Forbidden City (Concluded) Toy left the room quietly before her lover could protest, and Phillip, unschooled in sorrow, buried his heau in his arms. Toy did not take her own life — the only refuge of a Chinese woman whose sorrows are too great to bear — as she had intended to do. Word came to her that the plague had broken out in the city. An hour later she had forgotten her own woe in attempting to relieve the suffering of the city's sick. A few days later the plague entered the governor s home, and John Worden was stricken. Driven by some unfathomable impulse, Toy demanded that she be made his nurse. The governor grew steadily worse, and Toy despaired. Alone in his room one night, when the governor's delirium was at its height, ana when Toy felt that she, too, had contracted the plague, she dropped on her knees to pray. But she could not pray. She had no God to pray to. Her own Chinese idol she had thrown away. The gods of her father she knew nothing of. Suddenly she remembered her mother's picture which she had brought with her. She got it, and put it on the table near the bedside, and poured out her sad heart. John Worden, coming out of his delirium for a moment, turned his head. His eyes fell on the portrait, and straight way there broke from his lips the weak, eager cry of "San San, where are you? San San, my wife, my only love." Toy raised herself from her knees in amazement. The sick man had called the beautiful girl of the portrait by name. He had called her his wife. He must be the American father of whom Toy had never dreamed of finding. Presently John Worden opened his eyes asking: "Where is San San?" Toy thought quickly. The governor was so near the bn'nk that only a superhuman effort would save him. "She will be here soon," she answered. Then she sped to the adjoining chamber, took out her mother's garments, and dressed herself to look as the girl of the portrait looked. Then she " returned to John Worden's bedside. "San San," the sick man whispered, "how good God is to let me find you!" John Worden had passed the crisis. When he was strong enough, he heard the story of his San San, and how she had gone down the Lane of the Flashing Spears because she had loved him so. He looked into the eyes of his daughter and felt his ancient grief melt into happiness again. Phillip Halbert, hearing of the governor's illness, had obtained permission to return. Travel-stained and weary, he pushed his way past the sentries to his guardian's bedside. At the door he paused in astonishment, to see a girl in Chinese garments bend over and kiss John Worden on the forehead. Half an hour later, the East and the West joined hands again beside the bedside of John Worden. And there were none of the wise old sages there to gainsay it. i n.i.i in ntOTOT'T.AY MAfM \Z7\T: is iruaranteed. II
