IV

Guy’s first baby was born that Spring. It was a girl, and it

was called Delia. Guy and Diana lived in London now. Guy had

gone into business; Diana said he must make money, and there

was no money in the Bar, at least, not for years and years. She

said that she knew very well what it was like to be poor; she

said that her ‘Pater’ was poor, ‘poor as a barn-door rat, and

that’s no fun, you bet!’

So Guy gave up the Bar; he said that he did not mind about it,

and he went into business. I don’t know what he did in his business,

but it seemed that he made more money in that way, though Diana

said that it was still not enough.

And then, Cousin John died too. He was hardly ill at all, only

a few days.
