〃Yes。　I　want　to　ruin　you。〃

〃Good；〃　I　said；　〃thats　what　I　want　too。〃

40

We　had　a　fine　life。　We　lived　through　the　months　of　January　and　February　and　the　winter　was　very　fine　and　we　were　very　happy。　There　had　been　short　thaws　when　the　wind　blew　warm　and　the　snow　softened　and　the　air　felt　like　spring；　but　always　the　clear　hard　cold　had　e　again　and　the　winter　had　returned。　In　March　came　the　first　break　in　the　winter。　In　the　night　it　started　raining。　It　rained　on　all　morning　and　turned　the　snow　to　slush　and　made　the　mountain…side　dismal。　There　were　clouds　over　the　lake　and　over　the　valley。　It　was　raining　high　up　the　mountain。　Catherine　wore　heavy　overshoes　and　I　wore　Mr。　Guttingens　rubber…boots　and　we　walked　to　the　station　under　an　umbrella；　through　the　slush　and　the　running　water　that　was　washing　the　ice　of　the　roads　bare；　to　stop　at　the　pub　before　lunch　for　a　vermouth。　Outside　we　could　hear　the　rain。

〃Do　you　think　we　ought　to　move　into　town？〃

〃What　do　you　think？〃　Catherine　asked。

〃If　the　winter　is　over　and　the　rain　keeps　up　it　wont　be　fun　up　here。　How　long　is　it　before　young　Catherine？〃

〃About　a　month。　Perhaps　a　little　more。〃

〃We　might　go　down　and　stay　in　Montreux。〃

〃Why　dont　we　go　to　Lausanne？　Thats　where　the　hospital　is。〃

〃All　right。　But　I　thought　maybe　that　was　too　big　a　town。〃

〃We　can　be　as　much　alone　in　a　bigger　town　and　Lausanne　might　be　nice。〃

〃When　should　we　go？〃

〃I　dont　care。　Whenever　you　want；　darling。　I　dont　want　to　leave　here　if　you　dont　want。〃

〃Lets　see　how　the　weather　turns　out。〃

It　rained　for　three　days。　The　snow　was　all　gone　now　on　the　mountain…side　below　the　station。　The　road　was　a　torrent　of　muddy　snow…water。　It　was　too　wet　and　slushy　to　go　out。　On　the　morning　of　the　third　day　of　rain　we　decided　to　go　down　into　town。

〃That　is　all　right；　Mr。　Henry；〃　Guttingen　said。　〃You　do　not　have　to　give　me　any　notice。　I　did　not　think　you　would　want　to　stay　now　the　bad　weather　is　e。〃

〃We　have　to　be　near　the　hospital　anyway　on　account　of　Madame；〃　I　said。

〃I　understand；〃　he　said。　〃Will　you　e　back　some　time　and　stay；　with　the　little　one？〃

〃Yes；　if　you　would　have　room。〃

〃In　the　spring　when　it　is　nice　you　could　e　and　enjoy　it。　We　could　put　the　little　one　and　the　nurse　in　the　big　room　that　is　closed　now　and　you　and　Madame　could　have　your　same　room　looking　out　over　the　lake。〃

〃Ill　write　about　ing；〃　I　said。　We　packed　and　left　on　the　train　that　went　down　after　lunch。　Mr。　and　Mrs。　Guttingen　came　down　to　the　station　with　us　and　he　hauled　our　baggage　down　on　a　sled　through　the　slush。　They　stood　beside　the　station　in　the　rain　waving　good…by。

〃They　were　very　sweet；〃　Catherine　said。

〃They　were　fine　to　us。〃

We　took　the　train　to　Lausanne　from　Montreux。　Looking　out　the　window　toward　where　we　had　lived　you　could　not　see　the　mountains　for　the　clouds。　The　train　stopped　in　Vevey；　then　went　on；　passing　the　lake　on　one　side　and　on　the　other　the　wet　brown　fields　and　the　bare　woods　and　the　wet　houses。　We　came　into　Lausanne　and　went　into　a　medium…sized　hotel　to　stay。　It　was　still　raining　as　we　drove　through　the　streets　and　into　the　carriage　entrance　of　the　hotel。　The　concierge　with　brass　keys　on　his　lapels；　the　elevator；　the　carpets　on　the　floors；　and　the　white　washbowls　with　shining　fixtures；　the　brass　bed　and　the　big　fortable　bedroom　all　seemed　very　great　luxury　after　the　Guttingens。　The　windows　of　the　room　looked　out　on　a　wet　garden　with　a　wall　topped　by　an　iron　fence。　Across　the　street；　which　sloped　steeply；　was　another　hotel　with　a　similar　wall　and　garden。　I　looked　out　at　the　rain　falling　in　the　fountain　of　the　garden。

Catherine　turned　on　all　the　lights　and　menced　unpacking。　I　ordered　a　whiskey　and　soda　and　lay　on　the　bed　and　read　the　papers　I　had　bought　at　the　station。　It　was　March；　1918；　and　the　German　offensive　had　started　in　France。　I　drank　the　whiskey　and　soda　and　read　while　Catherine　unpacked　and　moved　around　the　room。

〃You　know　what　I　have　to　get；　darling；〃　she　said。

〃What？〃

〃Baby　clothes。　There　arent　many　people　reach　my　time　without　baby　things。〃

〃You　can　buy　them。〃

〃I　know。　Thats　what　Ill　do　to…morrow。　Ill　find　out　what　is　necessary。〃

〃You　ought　to　know。　You　were　a　nurse。〃

〃But　so　few　of　the　soldiers　had　babies　in　the　hospitals。〃

〃I　did。〃

She　hit　me　with　the　pillow　and　spilled　the　whiskey　and　soda。
