Nunnally, a famous American
chemist and once a teacher, Is In
South America sends for him.
Vilak believes that Gaylord
Prentiss, a mysterious and for
bidding man, is somehow involved
In the deaths. He tries to visit
Prentiss but Is ordered to stay
away. Elise's two-year-old orphan
ed nephew ils kidnapped and Pren
tiss Is suspected. Vilak tracks
the kidnappers, who are on horse
back, and finally he and his com
panions come upon the child, un
harmed and being cared for by a
gang of railroad laborers in the
charge of Carlos D'Alebentafa.
Vllaks tells Ellse she and the
child must leave on the next boat
Ho decides to close his barber
shop and stick to the character
of Attorney Davis. He, Ellae and
Uunnnlly are breakfasting when
word la brought that a messenger
has come to see her from Wilson,
her overseer , at . Villapa.
NOW BEGIN THE STORY
CHAPTER XX ..
Ellse put down the fork with
which she had been nibbling at an
omelet. "Send him in at once,
pleuse."
The maid hurried out. In a mo
ment the door Into the kitchen
opened again. A brawny half
breed Braslllan, clad in thick heavy
blue overalls and hip boots, stanip-
K cd Into the room, leaving great
every step. He strode up to Ellse
and, taking off his hat, stood awk
wardly before her.
You have news for me, ami-
gos?" she asked politely, when lie
did not speak for a moment.
"Yes, senhorlta.' He rubbed nis
thick fingers along his muddy
trousers. "I come from your, fa
zenda at Villapa. Meester Wilson
have sent mo. Tell me ride last as
can. He say tell you flood getting
very bad Villapa. Say too he very
seeck and can do not much, afraid
much will be washed away. Wants
you come quick. He not say, but
he very, very seeck. I, Miguel, all
other, think he die. '
Klise vose from the table. "You'll
have to excuse me," she said to her
guests. "I'll have to go out to Vil
lapa at once.. Jt's been criminal of
me to have left poor Wilson there
111 and alone. Criminal." She
called to Maria to' have her horse
made ready.
"Just a minute, Elise," Vilak said
coolly. He gazed sharply at the,
inud-snattered messenger. "Are you
sure this chap works on your fa-.
zenua .'
Her forehead knitted into a
frown. "What do you moan: ui
course he works on the fazenda?"
"You've Been him?"
She hesitated, then nodded j "I'm
sure I've Beon him. Several times.
Anyway, even If I haven't, what
difference would it make? I can't
know every ono of the 500 laborers
at Villapa, can I, when they change
so often?

After 17 years In the ring, Wills,
