"And where Is Mr. Henderson?"

"This Is a friend of mine." I Inter

you need not trouble about that

"A smart fellow like you can keep
his mouth shut," continued the In
spector, sweetly. "You wouldn't go
boating all over the house If you

"Oh no, sir; on my word I

And so Peace told him of the pro

of the door, or to see who went and
came. I walked over to the fireplace,
lit a cigarette, and watched them, my
nerves growing steadier In the merry
clatter of tongues. They were all
there, the men and women of that
careless house party, all there save
one who lay silent wherever they had
laid him.

Terry, the secretary; the very person.
I wanted to see.
"Anything the matter, Mr. Phil
Hps ?" he asked. "Tou're not looking
very well."
"Don't worry about me," I told him.
"But I want a word with you In pri

He had been winning heavily, and
It took him some time to crowd the
bank notes Into his pockets. A sover

paid no attention to It.
"I have something to tell you. Can
you come up to my room?" I asked
him.
He hesitated, looking regretfully at
the table, where Fortune had been so
kind to him.
"It happens to be rather Important,"
I said.
He followed ms without another

explained the situation la hurried

seemed a helpless sort of creature,

"A night's rest Is what you want."
I said, patting htm on the shoulder.
"Come, let me give you an arm."
He took It at once, with a grateful
glance, and I led him down the cor

In the same wing, so we had not far

He never moved, but his face grew
so pale and drawn that towards the

the shadows of the curtains.

upon the bed In a passion of hyster
