Four
STEPHEN FARRADAY
Stephen Farraday was thinking of Rosemary—thinking of her with that in-
credulous1 amazement2 that her image always aroused in him. Usually he
banished3 all thoughts of her from his mind as promptly4 as they arose—but
there were times when, persistent5 in death as she had been in life, she re-
fused to be thus arbitrarily dismissed.
His first reaction was always the same, a quick irresponsible shudder6 as
he remembered the scene in the restaurant. At least he need not think
again of that. His thoughts turned further back, to Rosemary alive, Rose-
mary smiling, breathing, gazing into his eyes. . . .
What a fool—what an incredible fool he had been!
And amazement held him, sheer bewildered amazement. How had it all
come about? He simply could not understand it. It was as though his life
were divided into two parts, one, the larger part, a sane7 well-balanced or-
derly progression, the other a brief uncharacteristic madness. The two
parts simply did not fit.
For with all his ability and his clever, shrewd intellect, Stephen had not
the inner perception to see that actually they fitted only too well.
Sometimes he looked back over his life, appraising8 it coldly and without
undue9 emotion, but with a certain priggish self-congratulation. From a
very early age he had been determined10 to succeed in life, and in spite of
difficulties and certain initial disadvantages he had succeeded.
