Bowen knew what to-do, With de- ferential welcoming murmurs he pos- sessed himself of Anne's suitcases and', wafted her into her house toward what seemed to be a tiny roma at the side of the hall.

After Jennie had gone Anne locked and bolted the door. The great.can- opied bed was luxuriously soft; the sheets were smooth linen, lavender scented. But Anne could not, for a while, go to .sleep.
