CHAPTER XXX
" "I see; so that's the way of it,
but if you had this bright idea of
i;icvK . b o yapizt a j
didn t yoa teu the Chief what you
meant to do?"
i babine suddenlv ctraiehtened
herself. "I am answerable to him
and not to you." .
"Got the papers?
"I'd just finished searching the
place. There isn't a thing here that
matters. He evidently keeps any
cotes he has somewhere else."
; "Right then. Well be moving. I
don't believe your story and I doubt
if the Chief will either; but he's
' mighty anxious to see you again and
put. you through it. Come on; get
downstairs to the car."
Sabine hesitated only a second.
Gregory would be returning soon
now. How could be possibly over
come three armed men if he were
taken by surprise by them on en
tering his sitting room. They be
lieved him dead, but if they found
that their last attempt upon him
had failed they were capable of
shooting him out of hand, and they
bad silencers upon their automatics.
-The thought of trying to explain
her movements under the steady
gaze of Lord Gavin's soulless eyes,
terrified her but Gregory's life lay
'in the balance. "
' ' When he drew up before the house
a few minutes later a large car was
'just disappearing round the corner
. of the street. Upstairs he found the
, bags packed and ready; but no sign
of Sabine. He called aloud for her
but there was no response. The flat
was empty. With a bitter, hopeless
feeling of distress he suddenly real
ized that, for some incomprehen
sible reason, she had changed her
mind and left him once again.
. Except for the packed suitcases
and the crumpled bed, where Sabine
bad been sleeping when he arrived,
her presence there might have been
a dream. He was faced again by
exactly the same problem as that
which he had battled with on his
way back from Scotland Yard an
hour and a half earlier. Should he
risk wrecking the whole of the po
lice campaign by going down to
Quex Park and either cajoling or
forcing Sabine to cross the Chan
cel with him, before she was ar
' rested, or must he take a chance
upon being able to get her out of
trouble later; so that the police
might have a free hand to round up
the whole of Gavin Fortescue'a or
ganization in one swift move?
In any case, it seemed that so
shrewd a man as Gavin Fortescue
would have seen the red light and
would, therefore, bring hia opera
tions to a close, either that coming
night or the next; before the new
moon came in. On one or other of
them the chances were he would
land those men who might do such
incalculable harm to the peace and
prosperity of Britain.
Between the two necessities for
preventing that dire calamity and
savins: Sabine from prison Greg
ory rocked mentally as he sat with
. his head buried in his hands. It was
the most distressing problem he had
' ever had to face and he could reach
no definite decision.
At last he got slowly to his feet
and began to ease his clothes from
his sore back and chest. The police
net would not close until the follow
ing night at the earliest; that fact
alone seemed reasonably certain.
. Therefore he still had a good twelve
boars in front of him before he need
make the final plunge one way or
the other. Ordinarily be was a man
of quick decisions, but in this case
v he felt the old adage "sleep on it"
was true wisdom.
Five hours later ha entered
Superintendent Marrowfat's room,
punctual to the minute; spick and
span again and ready to cope with
any situation. ,;.
r Wells was already there and Sir
Fellinore arrived almost on Greg
ory's heels. Marrowfat nodded a
cheerful good morning and, as they
sat down, pushed a telegram across
bis table towards them.

tain where, yet, It looks as if they
mean to use a base ! we haven't
tumbled to." I
Gregory picked up the telegram.
"How did you get this?" he asked.
"Usual way," the Superintendent
grinned. "We tipped off the Post
Office to let us have copies of any
telegrams which came through for
M it bloom & Allison." j
Gregory read out the message:
"MTTBLOOM 43 BARTER STREET LON
DON E.1. TENTH 21 33 . COROT."
Wells held a slip of paper in his
hand. "According to the key you
worked out last night from Ariel's
songs, that means :
'FuB fathom fiva thy father liet;
His time doth take.'
Doesn't seem to make sense does it?"
Gregory sat thoughtful for a mo
ment then he. said: "'Full fathom
five thy father lies' " sounds like an
other base, as you suggest. Some
where on the coast, I suppose but
where goodness knows!" .
"I take it to mean some place
where the water remains five fath
oms deep even at low tide," said the
Superintendent. He spread out
large scale map of Kent and all four
men bent over it. !
"In that case it can be nowhere on
the seacoast, air fellinore re
marked, "but there are plenty of
places round Sheppey or in the
channel of the Medway, running up
to Chatham, that are quite close in
land and never less than five fath
oms." I
"That's about it, sir," Wells nod
ded. "There's any nur cf quiet
spots among all those islands; but
which is it? That's the question."
"Why should they f mention the
depth of the water?" Gregory spoke
thoughtfully. "I wonder if Gavin
Fortescue is employing fast motor
boats as well as planes to land his
cargoes. It s a possibility you know;
when the contraband is of a heavy
nature. .
. "That's a fact," agreed the Super
intendent, "and the second number,
33, should give us the nature of the
cargo, shouldn't it? It doesn't offer
much to go on though J 'his time-
doth take. Time, is about the only
word in it worth thinking about."
"Clocks, my friend," announced
Sir Pellinore quietly, "and watches.
Those are the things by which we
tell the time, aren't they? There's
quite a high duty on them too, and
they would ' certainly constitute
weighty cargo." - i
"By jove, you're right.' sir." Wells
backed him up. They re landing a
cargo of clocks at some place in the
Thames Estuary where the channel
is never less than five fathoms deep
at low tide.- i
For a moment they stood silent
round the table, then the Superin
tendent said : "If only we knew the
place I'd pull them in tonight. Since
Lord Gavin caught Mr. Sal lust and
Wells he must know we ve been
watching some of his, people, al
though he's probably tiot aware yet
that we have the Park under obser
vation. He may decide to quit any
moment now and, as the new moon's
on the 12th, this may be the last
cargo he'll chance running."
The grip of Gregory's muscular
hands tightened a little on the arms
of his chair. The Superintendent
was no fool and summed up the posi
tion precisely as he had himself a
few hours before. That made it
more imperative than ever that he
must make up his mind what he in
tended to do about Sabine.
"You might raid the Park and get
Gavin Fortescue tonight in any
ease," suggested Sir Fellinore.
"After aU he is the center of the
whole eonspirscy." i
The Superintendent shook his birr
head. "I'd rather work it the other
way. Sir. If we nab him first it may
prevent him giving some signal
which is the O.K. for his men to run
their stuff. Then we'd lose the bulk
of them. Far better let them land,
take them redhanded and then bring
in Lord Gavin immediately after
wards." "Have you had any news from the
Park?" Gregory enquired. -

Market Rally
Gets Setback
Losses Are Small on Whole
and Some Make Gains
of Good Size :
NEW YORK. June 27-;P)-The
rousing stock market rally ran
Into profit selling difficulties to
day and leading issues shed frac
tions to more than a point.
There , were many resistant
spots throughout the list, how
ever. Including aircrafts and spe
cialties which managed to emerge
with sizeable advances.
On the whole, brokers thought,
the list acted exceptionally well.
Most had been looking for a larg
er correctional setback In view
of last week's upturn, one of the
sharpest in many years. The fact
that the Associated Press average
of 60 issues was only off .5 of a
point at 45 was seen as highly
constructive.
, 401 up, 343 Down f
The dip in the average was
due to the presence in this com
posite of a few shares that were
down several points. Actually, of
907 stocks traded, 401 -were op,
343 down and 163 unchanged.
Modest recessions were widely
distributed at the opening. A fast
buying move got under way short
ly thereafter and, for a while the
ticker tape was as much as four
minutes in arrears. Volume dwin
dled until just before the close
when it expanded briskly under
selling in steels and motors.
Transfers totaled 2,105,840
shares compared with 2,290,540
last Friday.

us." Wells looked up quickly. "My
man Simmons rang up early this
morning to say Mademoiselle Sa
bine had slipped off on her own,
round about midnight; telephoned
from Birchington and then hired a
car in which she drove away to
wards London. She turned up there
again this morning though, just be
fore eight, in a different car and
three men were with her. The
Limper was one of them."
Gregory remained poker-faced at
this piece of information. So she
had gone back to Gavin Fortescue,
but why had three of the others
been with her? It flashed into his
mind that perhaps she had not gone
back to Quex Park of her own free
will and that they had been sent to .
get her. But if that were so how had f
the Limper and his men discovered
where she was. It was more prob
able, he considered, that Sabine,
having no car of her own, had taken
the early train to Canterbury and
then telephoned for them to fetch
her. '
While the rest were poring over
the map of the Thames Estuary and
discussing the most likely spots
where a landing might be affected at
low tide Sir Pellinore and Gregory
left the conference room together.
From Scotland Yard they crossed
Whitehall, entered St. James's Park
at Birdcage Walk and, turning left,
crossed the Horse Guards Parade
towards Carleton House . Terrace.
They did not exchange a word as
they walked on side by side; until
they reached Waterloo steps and
were ascending them towards the ,
terrace.
"Youll lunch with me?" asked Sir
Pellinore. "That will pass a little of
the time while we're waiting."
"Thanks, I'd like to. D'you think
they'll raid Quex Park tonight?"
"I haven't a doubt of it. Marrow
fat is not a fool and Gavin Fortescue
must realize by now that the tide is
running swiftly against him. He's
probably making his preparation
for departure at this moment. If the
police don't rope him in tonight they
will have lost an opportunity which
may not recur for months to come."
"In that case I may not be, with
you." ;
Sir Pellinore grunted." "I had an .
idea that might be so. You're a
clever fellow, Gregory, and I doubt
if they spotted anything at1-the
Yard, but I know you so welL
You're worried about that young r
Hungarian baggage, aren't you?"
"I am," Gregory agreed. "Dam

sent to prison." -
"I know, I know," Sir Pellinore
broke in. "I would do anything in
my power to save her from that if I -could,
but even my influence is not
sufficient to secure a free pardon for
her pnless she is prepared to turn
King's Evidence."
They did not speak again until
they had entered the house and were
seated In the big library overlook
ing the MalL There again they fell
silent while they drank the cham
pagne the butler had brought, until
Sir Pellinore said at last with a
swift look at his guest: ;
"Well, what're you going to do?"
"Go down and get her out before
they raid the place tonight,"
"You're taking a pretty' nasty
risk, you know," said Sir Pellinore
quietly. "Obstructing the police in

country, and all that sort of thing.

Third Fruit Fly
Spray Due now
' eaBm-- "
The third eherry fruit fly spray
should be applied at once, an
nounces Robert E. Relder, assis
tant county agent and county hor
ticulturist. Late ripening varie
ties of cherries such as Lamberts,
late Duke, Dings, and Montmor
ency should receive the spray
promptly.
-The fruit flies have been
emerging from the soil since the
firstSreek in June, and although
they have now reached their peak
a few are still to be found emerg
ing in the fly cages.
The spray formula is: lead ar
senate, Vt pound; molasses. 2
quarters; water to make 10 gal
lons. '
Royal Anne. Waterhouse, and
other early varieties now being
harvested should be sprayed after
the cherries have been removed
to prevent the flies from moving
to the late varieties. ,
The late cherries should receive
a thorough spray at this time
since weather conditions are ideal
for fruit fly infestations. Sprays
should be repeated immediately
after each heavy shower.
