Chapter Twenty Five

THE SIRENS WERE SOUNDING MADLY and the village was a stir with tension and excitement as two people were stranded on the mountain and the rescue crew had been alerted. Fern had seen this drill so many times before, but it always caused him concern and anxiety each time it occurred, especially now that he could never forget the fate of his own father. The evening was drawing in and soon the mountain would be enveloped in darkness. It was then that the rescue became more hazardous and relatives and friends of the rescue team joined the friends of the climbers in fear and apprehension. The mountain was beautiful, but equally cruel in its proud majestic stand.

“Don’t let any harm come to them. Keep them safe.” Fern prayed aloud as he waited in the lounge of Tom Mahon’s house, but the rescue team had gone and the waiting game had begun ... once again. There was a fear with Fern; an inordinate fear that he could not comprehend as he tried to occupy himself with his music, but he could not remain still and walked about restlessly until he could stand this unfounded feeling no longer. He put on his coat and a scarf and went out of the house as he felt it would be better if he could walk about in the fresh air and allow his thoughts to wander at will, but he had not gone far when Miss Harrison appeared in the lane, wearing a shawl around her head and shoulders. Her face was drawn and cold in the wind and the snow rested lightly on her head. She saw Fern in the distance and called out to him.

“What is the trouble, Miss Harrison? You shouldn’t be out here alone.

There is nothing anyone can do until the team returns” he called out as she ran towards him, but she threw her arms in the air and began to sob.

“Fern, I am worried. It is beginning to snow and there is no sign of them returning. I am sure there’s a storm in the air ... I know it.”
