In Chelsea boarding liouae. She bat run away. Dirk, who loves her. Mks that ihe return to the Jorla sa ute on the Hudson river because Bu. pert, recovering from a terrible Ill ness, la asking for h- In spite of auspicious and mysteiloua thlnga In Hope'e background. Dirk knowa he never will be happy out of her Bight. And ahe has promlaed that, although she will not atay at the Jorla place long, aha will tell him before ahe leaves'. Chapter 37 SUDDEN TRAGEDY Hope and Dirk went together to the gray atone house ui Twenty-second atreet. At Ita door she healtated, then asked. "Could you let me have tome money?" He took $30 from h's billfold, of fered to write a check If ahe needed more. "No," he answered, and thanked him, "this will do." She took the money and went in alde, asking him to wan on the step After about 20 minutes she came out. "I'm ready," ahe said. She was taking nothing back with her but the guitar. enow, snow falling infinitely, steadily, without hurry. Dirk stood at his beoroom window In his dressing gown, and watched the Enow. He had tried to read, but made no headway. Ru)rt had been home a week. He was recovering certainly, though he still looked shaken and pale. He had gone this morning, thoroughly bundled in rugs, for a ride with Hope, Martin driving them. The nurses had been dis charged. What Rupert's sudden turning to his wife might signliy, Dirk could only conjecture. Whether it was, as he bad suggested to Hope, the mere vagary of a sick man, or whether the new mood involved a definite change of heart, Dirk saw too little of either Hope or Rupert to deter mine. Husband and wife had their meals together upstairs, and on those occasions when Dirk had vis ited Rupert In his room, Hope had withdrawn. Dirk knew of course that Hope was only marking time only waiting until Rupert was wel. again, when 6he would leave. But tie. would know this time when she went. She had promised to tell him and she would keep her word. He. ten., would keep his word. He would not stop her, or try to stop her. He would merely go with her. No thing could prevent him. He started, thinking he heard a cry. A woman's cry. And now, al most instantly, a shot a stammer ing shot, like backfire from an cn guie. Yet it had bec.i too close for backfire, and from the wrong direc tion. He was in the hail He listened. There was no sound anywhere. . . It should not be so still behind Hope's door. He trlcu that door. It was locked. He tried Rupert'a door. It opened. The light as on but the room was empty. Hope's light burned, too. The door stood open. Dirk was u: Hope's room before he knew. Hope stood In her nightgown, leaning against the column of the bed. Her eyes were dazed as if she were walking In her sleep. Rupert lay face down at her feet. The pearl-handled revolver ws on the floor between them. Dirk rose from kneeling beside hi brother, and confronted Hope. Close to him now, hei dazed eyes atared back, seeming not to see him. Suddenly ahe crumpled, was In his arms. He lifted her, carried her to ward the door. Timothy, pale, half, dressed, hur ried belore him, turning back or directions. "The south bedroom." Dirk said. Distinctly he remei'.irjered that the south bedroom had been made rea dy for the Hev. Devlne. Somehow. Mary, too. was in the room, turning c'own the bed. Dirk laid Hope with in It. Her eyes were half shut, her lips parted. She seemed not to breathe. Timothy had gone out. Dirk met him coming from the tower-room. Timothy'! voice was almost Inaud ible. "Shall I call . . ." "Call Dr. Rann across the street," said Dirk. "That's the quickest.- Rann came at once Rupert, he said, had died instantly. Dirk telephoned to Connolly, Ru pert friend and ohief-of-police. Connolly, he knew, would bring the coroner. They must come of course. but they would leam nothing from Hope tonight. Rann, who wag with her now, had said at once that she must not be questioned. Rupert lay Just within the room, close to the old kas. A small dark stain was spreading on his back, dyeing the familiar brown dressing gown. The bullet had gone through. The pistol lying there had sent its bullet clear through. Something like a wound went through Dirk's own breast. My God, and we were playing backgammon not an hour ago. . . He took a handkerchief from the pocket of his dressing gown, dropped it over the pistol. Then he picked the pistol up and btoke It open. One shot was gone. The pistol had been fully reloaded, and one shot only had been fired. Strange. Strange, that. He wiped the weapon carefully and laid It down again. But he did not lay it where it had been close to the spot where Hope had stood He laid it beside Hubert's hand. The pearl handle close to Rupert's hand. "Forgive me, old man." It wouldn't matter now. Nothing mattered now to that prone body in its monk-like robe. Tne very ges ture of the out-flung arms allowed that nothing mattered now. "I was afraid of this,' Connolly said when he arrived. He and Bassett, the coroner, had at last come out of the tower-room. They talked with Dirk in the hall. "1 was afraid, Connolly repeated. "When he didn't con. back from Big Moose I got worrrcd. Tilings he said once or twice, the way he act ed. He made his will last month, I suppose you know." Dirk said that he had not known. but since Rupert haa Just got mar ried T know. And he seemed more cheerful yesterday when I called. And his wife taking care of him so well. Even In his note he left no reason." ' "He had a note?" Dirk asked. "The note on his desk." Connolly said. "The note addressed to you He took the note from his pocket and handed It to Dirk. "I supposed of course you'd found It. It was not even fo'dtd Just lying open on his desk." They were standln? near Dirk's door. Dirk went into his room to read his brother's note. PATTERN 5551 Planning to entertain your club this fall?

He decided that he would not go to Willy Nllly's as yet, "I have news, caw, caw, caw, caw!" he cawed as he reached the camp. "We'll get even with them. Oh yes, I have an idea! You may all have Ideas. What a noise well make. We'll stay on our own land so they cannot object." "What in the world are you talk ing about, growl, growl?'' asked Jelly Bear. "You'll have to be clearer in your speech," cackled Top Notch,, the rooster. "I'm clear enough. It was you who got tricked, caw, caw, caw." Top Notch looted very much alarmed. "What do you mean?" he asked. "Has someone stolen my little mir ror?" He reached for it and found that it was still quite safe under his wing. "The Galumps," said Christopher, "do not intend to help Willy Nilly at all." "What?" crowed and bleated and growled and quacked and barked the others. 'I do not know what you mean, Christopher," cackled Top Notch. "I shall explain." cawed Christo pher. "I was on my way to Willy Nllly's and I stopped at the Ga lumps' place." "You weren't looking for any new com, were you?" growled Jelly Bear. Silence!' cawed Christopher, "if you wish me to go on with my re port.
