Eden's last ride as prime min- ister began at a few minutes past 6 o‘clock. ' A knot of photographers, re- porters and hobbies stood in front of the old oak door at No. 10, two more gas lights casting long slant- ing shadows in the night. -Suddenly the door opened-and out came Eden. He raised a limp hand and stepped into his car. He put his hat on his knees and, looking like a man holding back tears, spoke a soft order to his chauffeur. ONLY SILENCE Off they went. There were no shouts, no cries only the silence of about 50 people. The prime minister's car swung slowly past the cenotaph, that granite monument to the war dead. Simon, one of Eden’s two sons, was killed in the Second World War. Up past the cenotaph Eden's automobile moved past the for- eign office, scene of Eden's great- est triumphs. Then it started down Birdcage Walk, a long. straight road, each side lined by gaunt, sentinel-like trees. their limbs leafless in the January night. ‘ 'Halfway down the road Eden’s car passed the ruins of the Guards‘ Chapel, all but destroyed by a flying bomb that killed scores of worshippers in the last days of the war.

Eden's car zoomed past the few drivers who had enough gas- oline coupons to be on the road. A few moments more and the automobile was rolling toward the shadows of the countryside. Back at 10 Downing Street the small crowd had swelled outside the doors of the prime minister's town residence. Inside the grimy old house was one of the men—— or so it was t‘:.ought—who would become Britain's next prime min- ister. By this time the clock showed 7:15. The door opened at 11 Downing street, residence of the chancel- millan; one of the men mentioned as the successor to Eden. LATE FOR DINNER? Out popped the hatless head of Lady Dorothy Macmillan, wife of the chancellor. She has a title as the daughter of the ninth Duke of Devonshire. Then followed one of those homey moments that leavers the making of drama. “Where is he?” asked Macmil- lan’s wife of a chauffeur stand- ing on the sidewalk. “Inside, me lady,” said driver nodding at No. 10. “Well,” said Lady Dorothy, "if he doesn't look out he's going to be late for dinner.” But what of R.
