Worlds Without End Continued from page 17 distant "Halloo." Chris listened intently, then strode to the door and peered out. "Who is it?" Mary asked. "Rene Devigny, a trapper who lives up the river. Halloo, Rene," he called. A compactly built French Canadian appeared in the doorway, knocking the snow off his fur cap and weather-beaten windbreaker. "Good to see you, Rene. Come in," Chris urged. The man's eyes caught Mary and his Gallic face lighted up. "Pas possible. Much work with the traps before the snow she ees too heavy," he apologized. "I stop only because of thees telegram for you in the village. They ask me to breeng eet on my way." He handed the message to Chris and with a flash of white teeth was gone. Mary came over to Chris. "What on earth do you suppose it is?" He held the telegram a minute, then grinned. "Maybe opening it would be a good way to find out." He tore the envelope and read silently. "Well?" Mary found herself asking almost sharply. "I think you'd better see for yourself," he said quietly. CHE took the telegram, unable to •^ account for the sudden bleak chill that came over her. It was dated Quebec, September 15. That would have been almost a month ago. Evidently it had been lying in the village for several weeks. Slowly she read: "Please report to your local headquarters immediately." It was signed, "Commanding Officer, Naval Base, Halifax." "Oh, Chris," she whispered. "I should have expected it, I suppose," he tried to sound matter-offact. "Remember I told you I was an officer in the Naval Reserve?" Her only answer was a nod. "Probably doesn't mean a thing," he added casually. "Just says to report." "Besides," Mary said in a small voice, "you're married now. After all, exemptions — " "Mary!" He startled her with the incisiveness of his manner. "I wasn't married when this all began. If they need me, I couldn't let that make a difference." She couldn't deny the anxiety in his voice as he finished, "You understand?" Neither could she deny the body blow that fate had dealt her When words were possible, she said, I understand that my husband must do what he must do." Chris caught her hands, looking down at her hungrily, unhappily. Oh, Mary," the words broke from him like a moan. She turned away quickly and said "Darling, we need more wood for the fire. And I'd better start packing. . . ." Mary never quite knew how they made the trip back to Montreal or what happened those mercilessly few hours that she and Chris had together before he had to leave. They took a small hotel suite where Mary could be close while Chris ran around on last-minute arrangements. At length the car was waiting downstairs to take him to the train. They had agreed It was best that Mary shouldn't come to the station.
