For. a few seconds the start ling words which Alice Holcombe had uttered bereft me of speech or motion. Then I turned to her m hiixtous, hurried protest, pro test which, however, I felt was not quite sincere, To me the an nouncement that Kenneth Stock bridge was sa d to have confess ed the murder of his wife, was not the incredible horror that it to tn womn who loved him with such hopeless devotion. . ut i natter myself that there was no trace of my doubt of the accused principal in the horrified accents with which I addressed her. And thera was no need tor me to feign agitat'on. Whether the thing were true or not, 1 could not hear so awful a thing about a man with whom I had worked and whom I had sincere ly liked, with any degree of calmness. "No! Alice! It can't ba true!" "Of coure it can't," she return ed simply, "unless the long con finement and the awful unjust ac cusation have turned Kenneth's brain. Do you think that might have happened?" i "I don't know what to think,'-' I returned honestly. "Who was the man who told you, anyona you know?" Who Is The Man? "No, I never saw him before. He sa'd that he was a private de tective engaged on the case, that he had secured a confession from Kenneth and that I had better give up whatever I knew about the case, for it mig-ht go hard vth me if anything came out af terward about M lily's being jeal ous of me. I don't understand what he could mean," she went on, raising her eyes to mine in honest bewildered pain. "Mflly was jealous of a good many wo men, but I am sure that she was never jealous of me." I gave a passing thankful thought to the fact that she d d not know of the venom which Milly Stock bridge had directed 8gain8t her in the last hours of the crazed woman's life, but it "'as overshadowed by another idea which had come to me at her me'on of the private detective. "Describe the man who came to see you," I said quietly. She did so, minutely, and I i:s tened with growing conviction that her. mysterious visitor was the same man who had so fright ened me but a few weeks before. "What did you tell him?" I was too frightened to tell him anything." she said, "even if I had anything to tell. I s'ra ply said I knew notning about the case, that he was mistaken in sup posing Mrs. Stockbridge was Jeal ous of me, for I was her nearest friend and. yes, I did say, that if Mr. Stockbridge bad confessed he must be out of his mind, for 1 was sure he had never hurt his wife." "Good!" I commented. "You couldn't have done better if you had had the advice of a reg menf of lawyers. Now I am going to tell you something which I hoje will make you feel better. I do not believe that man has ever seen Mr. Stockbridge. nor do 1 think he knows anything about a 'confession." "What makes you so sure?"

"Because a man exactly an swering that descript'on came to me several weeks ago, saying hs was one of Mr. Stockbridge's at torneys, and trying to find out what I knew or didn't know about tntngs. I found out that he had no connection with the attorneys for Mr. Stockbridge. He gave his name hesitatingly, as Georpe Bridgsham. and I thought at the time he made up the name on the spur of the moment, taking part of Mr. Stockbridge's because he could think of noth ng else quickly. AVThat did the man call himself who came to see you.?" "John Hambrldge." Miss Hol combe returned, smiling In relief from the tension in which she had been held. "He hasn't much originality, has he?" I asked, smiling back at her. "No," she admitted. "But h's persistence shows that Miliv's family, who must be behind him. are going to leave no stone un turned to convict Kenneth. Don't you think so?" "I am afraid of it," I assented, "hat of the other han it also shows that their case is not so strong: as they wish, that they are trying to bolster it in every way they Can. Now please do th's for me. If that man ever comes to see you again, refer him to me. I have a friend with much exper ience in thes-J matters, who is an xious to see him if he appears again. . Do not hint that I know him, simply say that you don't know anything about the case, hnti Mrs. Graham may. He pro bably will come to see me again anyway."
