around the Uvlng room Into which

"I'm sorry, Ohief, X "
He waved aside my contrition.
"The girl we have been looking

In this room X have found ether

. From the shadows ot a corner
behind him there, Thatcher Colt
lifted an ugly' Implementan axe
with a short handle, a douVle-bit-ted
affair that gleamed la the
light; On the steel blade were
dark red stains.- Ton will find
that ax today, exposed in a glass

when Thatcher Celt found It that
dreary winter's afternoon. -
"Good God!" I said Involun

the axe above his head until it

"Geraldine Foster has been
