AN ANONYMOIS W4RVINO
- At the Broon mansion Lester
found only letter from Dr. Lytton
eaylng that be had taken Graiineck
to Baltimore for treatment by Dr.
Downing, the eye specialist, accom
panied by Nurse Casey. Thre was
no word of Halite.
Lester assumed she must have
gone bark to New York and so re-'
turned there, but after week's
search of hospitals and nursing
homes wbers she must of necessity
seek employment, he was foroed to
admit htanaeU beatro. The strain
was beginning to wear him down.
In desperation he went back to
fioutnclta and aoucht out Dr. Lyt
ton, who already had written that
he had returned.
'"Moraine. Broon. I was Just to-
lnc to wrtce to you. Dr. Down trie
considers that Ms latest treatment
intirht be ot value to your brotlier."
He led the way Indoor.
-You're looking a btt off color."
continued Lytton.
"P'raps I've been worrying about
old Socks. suirseJtrd Lester.
"I suppose I stiall hear how he,
gets on?"
"Certainly.- ,
Well, look here, what I really
came about waa Miss EUaamore.
D'you know where she Is?"
Stie went back to New York."
said Lytton, fixing nil eyes upon
Lester.
Oh yes I suppose siie did
went to huy clothes and net all
ready to marry Socks when lie
comes back! That's a nice little
yarn, but you know well enough
that if Socks gets Ills sight back
hell find out siie's the girl he's got
such a grudge against; and If he
doesn't you'll separate 'em some
how. You told me yourself that
you'd get her out of Socks' life as
quickly and quietly as was safe."
"Well?" glowered Lytton.
Tm merely reminding you that
she's engaged to me, that she's go
ing to marry me and that If you
dont want her to marry Socks, you
might just as well help me to find
her."
"If she wanted to marry you, you
wouldn't have to look Xor her. I
Imagine .
8ne wanw to marry me all right.
At any rate, she'd far rather marry
me than bare me explain matters
to Socks."
."That's a specially rotten way of
blackmailing a woman!"
"Think so? Somehow. I can't see
It. It's simply presenting my point
of view."
Lytton turned his back and
stared out of the window,
"You may find it hard to believe."
he Jerked out, at last, "but I won't
help any man to force himself upon
a girl who doe&iit want him, what
ever my private opinion of her may
be."
T tell you, 1 shall make her per
fectly happy. There'll be an ample
Income and nothing to do but spend
it. And very likely there'll be
Socks with his sight as good as ever
and nothing for any one to worry
about."
"She announced. In your pres
ence, that she had no intention of
marrying you. Unless she assures
me she has changed her mind '
"She changed it when she decided
she dtdn't want Socks to hear her
sad little story. And X dont doubt
you'll come to admit that she
showed sense."
"Blackmailing me. too, ure you?"
Oh. don't be that way, doctor!
I'm only looking at the thing from
my point ot vie.
The Teins were standing out In
Lytton's face. Hts hands were
clenched tnd his shoulders thrust
forward. . .
"Are you dtflnttely t?illng me
that you'll write the truth to your
brother if I don't help you to find
Miss ConaJdine? ' he shouted.
"I suppose it comes to tliat.'
"It's you that your hrotliAr ought
to know the truth about, you cur!"
"Weil, tell him If you think lt'D
cheer bun up. I wont stop you."
Lytton strode back to the window.
There was ft long silence. Lester
pleased and refreshed, lit ft cigaret.
He had hall finished u before the
doctor came away from the win
dow. Lytton's face bore no expres-
blou whatever.
"Very well," he said. 'For Gran-
nock's sake. Miss Ellesmcre Is In
New England.
Whereabouts in New England?"
Boston." The doctor gave street
and number. "Siie Is In cliarge ftf
an elderly lady a mental Invalid
she travelled with her and arranged
t stay with her until ahe Is accus
tomed t ber new surroundings. . .
I ujapose it's uo use asking you to I
leave her in peaceT"
us at ail. I shall bscome ft
mental invalid myself tf she dodges
ine much longer. I cuppas you got
her the lob?
"I recommended ber in the first
place. Though I fail to see why X
should have to explain myself to
you."
"Only," eaclalmed Letter grace
fully, "so that I may thank you on
Iter behalf. It must have Jarred
your conscience horribly.
"Oo on get out of my house!"
returned Lytton with violence.
A quarter of an hour later. Dr.
Lytton sent ft telegram. It ran as
folio as: Broon probably starting
north today." It was directed to
Cor Id ine at the address he had
given Lester, but he did not sign it.
