Hint believes they would have the Kiillly party If they could find the person whom the Baroness met in the summer house. The Frosts aro called. lilm questions Mary about her shawl. CHAPTER XI. ; If It i in had half hoped for n sharp reaction on Mary's part when she mentioned the Spanish shawl the shawl which now shrouded the figure which lay be neath the sheet out In the summer house she was disappointed. 1 Nothing more than a look of puzzlement crossed the face ol Mrs. Front, though directly this had vanished something more definite, a wariness perhaps, took its place. Happening to glanco at Walter, however, Him saw that he was watching Ted and her gaze fol lowed his with the result that she experienced a thrill of astonish ment. . For, unlike Mary who seemed to feel only mild interest In what had happened to her shawl, Ted was plainly anxious. Now, for the first time since he had stepped in to the room, he was sitting bolt upright, a hint of tension about his out-thrust jaw and his eyes fixed upon his wife, , Mary seemed unconscious of his attitude as she spoke quickly and more casually than she hud done before. "1 didn't do anything wlih niy shawl," she declared, "As a piatter of fact I couldn't find It. Imogene was out and I searched )iigh and low. 1 had placed it on a chair near the door thinking we inlght he leaving early " she went a brief, inscrutable look toward her husband, with this, " and when I failed to find it I naturally thought the maid had hung It away In the closet off tho dressing room. Hut It wasn't there and It wasn't nnywhore; It seemed to have van ished. " . "80 you wen home without ft, Mrs. Frost V" ., "1 went home without It." . "Hid Mr. Frost 'remark on this .ask about the shawl?" . "I that Is, well, It was dark, fou see and I don't suppose te ni)l Iced that I hadn't the shaul. Did you Ted?" Ted growled something and Him wondered for perhaps the thou sandth time at Mary's patience. Him Imagined (he (wo of them starting for home together; Ted more than half Intoxicated Km gave that away when she re me in hered his railing downstairs fur ious at his wire for some unknown reason, so deep In 111 humor as not to notice his wile going with out her wrap. t Stirred by Indignation and rest lessness. Him got up and wandered about the room as Waller con tinued to question Mary, check lug the part of her story whleh had (n do with time. Moving to ward one of the windows, which opened above the terrace, Bini heard Mary say that neither she nor her husband had known either Of the guests of honor before last night, and she heard Ted endorse (his statement civilly enough for once. Sunday at the Churches Then she saw something move outside 1 he. wiuodw and, slipping behind the hangings, leaned acrosj the sill Just in time to see some one disappear around an angle of the building. Whether the person had been a woman or a man Him did not know, but she was aware that someoiie had been crouching there, peering In at the little group in the library, listening to what was said. .Moved by Impulse, Him climbed over the sill and dropped lightly upon tlie soft turf beneath. Try ing to make tier progress seem quite aimlesH, .she hi rolled across Hie terrace, keeping a sharp look out the while, peering into the din ing room which was empty, tluully sauntering down the path to the kitchen the path along which William, the butler, had come las), night to tell his lie about the bur ghtr while the screams ot' the maid, Jane, grew lain I and finally dieu away. The ancient colored woman whose superlulive cooking long had delighted guests ut tiaglc's Nest, was In the kitchen, mum bling over her pots and pans about the "cahylu'B-on oh dem white folks." She did not see I tiro ah, the gill passed through the nar row corridor from which opoiid the kitchen, the buck stairway, ami 1 no serving pantry. I It would have been Into this corridor that Jane fled last night and up the back stairway lo the west wing and the dressing room, Him reflected. This accounted for the suddenness of her disappear ance, also it accounted for the speed with which William appear ed ou the terrace after he loll (he dining room. Ou lurther Impulse, Mini pushed open l he door of tho serving pun try and went in, standing a mo ment while her eyes accustomed themselves to the dimness after the blight sunlight outside, before she saw William. Ho regarded her above the silver he was polishing with a startled expression on his lean, good-looking lace. hue nodded and said Bhe was looking over the house, her eyes darting, meanwhile, to the swing door which opened Into the dining room and which bad played such an Important part in the melo dramatic scene between the Bar oness and the butler last night. "There's a lot to the house, Isn't there, William? Booms and corri dors and and doors." He was thinking of I he swing door, she wub sure, but he an swered impassively, "Yes, M ins. It's a largo house. Miss," and went ou witli his work. Hhe watched him a moment and noted that he, (00, seemed hag gard; that even in the dim light he. was pallid as 1C from lack of rest. "I siiivpowe you didn't sleep much last night, William?" The question appeared to sur prise him. "It's not that, Miss; I'd no lime for my swim this morn ing. It makes a difference, Miss." "You swim every morning?" "Yes, Miss; there's nothing like a half hour In the water lo keep one fit . . . Begging your pardon, have they round who II was, yet?" The red mop jerked toward tho library and the light brown eyes seemed to burn In Ihe dimness. With an odd sensation of having got tu toe way or terrillc. un gueused forces, Bliu made a nega live answer. "They will, though, William. Soon. I'm sure (hey Will." "I hope so," he slated fervently. And added, "Thank you. Miss." Him sleppeil through the swing door and Ihe dining room, return ing to the library as Mary and Ted Frost were leaving.
