Olivier, shrugging his shoulders - slightly again. agreed that it prob- ably did. and asked her rather dif- tldently, where she would like to sit. They were hardly ensconed on the settee which she indicated when her worst fears were realiz- , ad. with almost no urging. Mrs. Coutourier embarked on a recita- tion in Cajun dialect of which - Anna could not follow a single. word. when this contribution came to an end. again after several on- cores, Mrs. Randolph said that they woud have some more music by and by, but that meantime they would play Truth and Con- sequences. Thls was a game which I ,.reseni'ed to Anna the very essence of puerility. She could not bring herself to take part in I it. and she hoped her attitude about it would be evident. But nobody seemed to notice her at- titude. When the first fervor of

the game began to wow U! a lit- tle. lira. Randolvh rose and made another announcement. "We are fortunate in having a very talented young musician here withusthisafternoon. Idid not like to take advantage of Mrs. 1"ontaine'e good nature by impor- tuning her. But I have just learn- ed from Mr. Breckenridge that she will be glad to sing." The applause that followed this announcement was exceedingly hearty. Evidently the auembied company. to which Celeste had been a oompleie stronger only that morning. had already accepted her with eagerness. she curtsled, char- mingly and unaffectedly. and turning toward the quartet. asked if one of its members would lend her instrument. Four young men sprang forward simultaneously. She accepted. with a murmur of thanks, the first of the mandolins that had been actually thrust into her hands. seated herself on one of the fallen logs and strummed for a moment, aimlessly, on her borrowed mandolin. Then she glanced appeslingly iup at Breck, who was standing beside the log.

” nconceeled pleasure in the success of his little maneuver.

"What shall I sing for them. Breck?" she asked, as if his choice and his decision were of supreme importance. .

"I hope you'll sing that planta- tion song you picked up at Splen- dlda."

"I'm-A-thinkin' of Yo'. Honey” But I don't know that very well. I never heard it until day before yesterday."

"Try it, anyway. I think you can do it."

"Then if everyone will join in the chorus-I wouldn't be afraid to try. if they'd do that."

Everyone was delighted at the suggestion. with the quartet to drown out deficiencies of lesser singers, I'm A-thinkin' of Yo', Honey became I. rollicking success. When Celeste switched back into the Creole songs that were more familiar to her, the general en- thusiasm grew even more intense. She looked appealingly up at Breck.

"Couldn't you sing one or two splrituals before you stop?" he asked. "I believe, if you did, the darkies would sing with you, too. 1 don't think they quite cared when you began. even though I'm A-thinkini of Yo', Honey is their own song. But they're more at their ease now. You've put every- one at ease, Celeste, you've made everyone happy."

The chorus swelled to greater harmony and richness. They there was s. hush. as if they were all waiting some supreme song which would be hers alone. She stopped strumming her mandolin. then laid it quietly aside and rose. She did not look toward Break for guid- ance this time. She looked straight into the skies and sang Gounod's Ave Maria.

CHAPTER XV.

An invitation to Brock from Al- lain de Gruy to join a fishing party at Vermilion Buy came op- portunely. He was very restless after the Fontalnes' visit, and none of the peaceful pursuits he had formerly enjoyed so much satisfied him any more.' He multiplied his activities, both on the plantation and in the parish, and though these resulted in healthful physical fatigue. still they did not suffice to occupy his mind or soothe his spirit.

While riding the crops. it had struck him that some of the fences needed repair. but as they still stood and held, and as so many other matters claimed his atten- tion, he had said nothing to Marcy Yates about this one. On the eve of his departure, however, he spoke to the overseer on the sub- ject, and found that Yates. like himself. had failed to say or do anything about this only because there had been so much else to say and do. Now that Breck had re- ferred to it first, the overseer made a. frank declaration.

"The fences are in bad shape. Mr. Breck. I've kept them patched up as well as I could. But they're old. Cypress rots. like everything else, in this climate. There's I.

ed wire cost. do you think?"

Yates heeitantly named a sum that was as staggering to Breol: as it was to him. "I can't lay "my

hands on that much money, Yates.

just now. But I'll think it over and let you know before I leave for Abbeville." -

He did think about it. intermit- tently. all the rest of the day. and at supper time it was still on his mind. Anna. who was in a relaxed and agreeable mood after a day spent in supervising "improve- ments". which she herself had in- stigated. offered him a penny for his thoughts.

"It would take more than a pen- ny to pay for these thoughts." he said rather ruefuliy. "I've found out that we need new fences The old ones are not worth mending any more. And Yates thinks they ought to be replaced with barbed wire."

"Well, of course. everyone uses barbed wire in New England how- adays." Anna said conclusively. It was evident that Yates had gone up in her estimation because of his pronouncement. "Why don't you get it. Breck?"

"For the some reason I haven't got a good many things. Anna. Barbed wire is expensive."

"I'd be very pleased to .buy the barbed wire. I'll speak to Yates about it in the morning."
