CHAPTER 405.
THE WAY DICKY vTOOK THE
PRE8E.VCE OF DOX ItA
1 MOS ALMIREZ.
For a few minutes after Broth
er Dill JJoyce' taxf had left the
Barker house I relaxed with the
comfortable assurance that I had
fat fely skirted - the" danger of Dr.
Pettlfs encountering Dicky. That
Claire; Foster "shared my relief I
knew ' by the color . which came
hack to her face and the general
tefisening of tension, plainly per
ceptible In her manner. ' '
I p&w, too, that Harry Under
. wood meant to preserve hU In
cognito ctricUy. I had been afraid
that his love of mischief would
lead him, to attempt conrersation
with me, but he eat erect in hi? j
teat bside the, driver, without (
turning, hia head toward us, and
making only an occasional com
ment, upon. Xhe beauty of the val
ley, with its glimpses of ravines
and; brook, through which we
wer driving.
- II glanced at my wrist watch and
made a mental calculation. It
was 10 miles-to Timkinsville. If
Dr. Pettlt should by any chance
stumble pon our route when Mrs.
Barker released him from the root
cellar In the hour she had named,
it would take him only a quarter
of an hour to reach Timkinsville.
And if Dicky were delayed in
starting from Caldwin, either by
accident or. his unwillingness to
obey' my' request to meet us, or
if his taxi should break down on
the road all my fears came rush
ing. baxk'at this possibility.
Mrs.' Barker's assurance that
she ' would set "; the' physician" on
the wrong trail, by making him
believe we had returned to Cald
wla, did' not assuage my fears.
I do not care for Dr. Pettlt's per
ponality, but I never have under
tcfimated the physician's mental
povrers.'4 lie wa having an hour
of enforced solitude in which,
uTica hli baffled rage should have
tTLlft5. U fpend , itself, he would,
without doubt, .take stock of the
situs Hon and tryto visualize , our
probable movements. That his
keen, eyen v.ouUl see through Mrs.
Barker's ruse I was. very sore,
DickyATrIves
. But even If he should come un
to fas, "the situation was infinitely
better than it had been. The dan
ger of : publicity was practically
nil on -the country road, and Harry
Underwood's strength and agility
were peacemakers not to be de
spised. Nevertheless, I was deeply wor
ried, and did not recover my spir
its, until after a wait at the Tim
kinsville crossroad, which seemed
interminable but which in reality1
was only a.quarter'of an hour,
a taxi drew up near us and Dfcky
alighted briskly, and after paying
and dismissing his driver, came
up to us. . ;
-.That he'wasMn a towering rage
my wifely eyes quickly, discovered,
but that he would conceal it until
he. vas alone with me I also
knew. He swept us all with a
nonchalant took, as, bag in. hand.
he strode up to us. but I saw him
take ! a second , glance at , Harryf
Underwood; and. I .wondered if hej
had. penetrated . his old friend's;

he said to me when he had reached
the side of our taxi.
"IUven't I Met You?"
"That we havi to get to Nan
tucket as soon a possible, so climb
into the car." I returned nonchal
antly, but with a look which, in
conjugal code, means: "Can't tell
you now. Stop talking about it."
-Where?" he jretorted with a
significant rudeness in : his tone
and a glance 'toward Harry Under
wood.' i . . '
It is not like Dicky to be dis
courteous, and I wondered if he
had uttered the monosyllable for
the purpose of hearing the voice of
the foreign-looking man in the
front seat. ' "' j ' ;.
"Right here, between Claire and
me," I rejoined promptly, "You're
not very complimentary. Neither
of us is fat. You'll have plenty of
room?' ' ' fij ' : 1
' Mr. . Underwood, turned arpund
and faced Dicky.j ' . ' f
"I am so distressed. I have the
great regret," he said! in the most
elaborate manner of Don Ramon
Almirez, "of my great necessity,
because there was to be had no
conveyance, Madame was so gra
cious as to permit rae to occupy
this seat. But I cannot so incon
venience you. I am sure with this
so careful drivef I can be' of a
comfort on thelwhat you call it
in this country the ' running
board." j
The mental picture of the dis
tinguished looking, elderly for
eigner whom Harry Underwood
was personating, disposing his
great height on the running-board
and clinging there during a 15
mile drive over the curving motnr
tain road, affected my laughter
muscles so that I' had hard work
to repress a chuckie. Dicky's lips
quirked involuntarily into a grin
as he climbed into the tonneau
and disposed himself between
Claire and me. But his voice "was
curt' when his answer came.
- "There's no necessity of that.
I'm sure. " Step on her, old man"
this in a smiling aside to Broths
er Bill, who immediately obeyed
the injunction. "But," turning his
eyes back to Harry Underwood's
face, "hayen't T met you before?"
