I exchanged calls and true
blue friendships with soft-voiced Englishwomen. And I took tea and
dinner aboard the ships of Welsh sea captains from Cardiff.
I had a wonderful time. I filled my notebook, took pictures and
collected souvenirs. I laughed and told stories. Folks down there
said I was good company.
But oh! In the hush of a rain-splashed night, when the fire in the
grate dozed and dreamed and a boat siren somewhere out on the inky La
Plata wailed and moaned through the black night, my heart flew back
over those gray-green waves to a little town that I knew in the U. S.
A. And to ease my longing I wrote Green Valley.

Road!"
Fanny fairly gasped out the astounding news.
