CHAPTER XX.
The room was very still after sho
nad spoken. Her father did not start
or look directly at her, but, after an
Interval of silence, he lifted his eyes
slowly until they met hers.
"You have lied to me," Zelda repeat
ed In the same passionless voice,
peaking as though she were saying
some commonplace thing. "I under
stand perfectly well why you wish to
continue this trusteeship. I shall be
very glad to do what you ask; only we
must understand each other frankly,
You must tell me the truth."
He shrank down slowly Into his
chair, but his eyes did not leave her
race. His hands had ceased trembling,
and he was quite himself. He waited
as though he expected some word of
contrition; but she still stood with her
yes fastened on him, and there was no
kindness in them.
i nave sought your own good. I
have supposed you would be gratiflod
to continue the trust reposed in mo
by your mother."
"If you speak to me of my mother
again I shall find some way of punish
ing you," she said, and there was still
no passion in her voice.
"I suppose that when you are ready
you will tell me what this means
why you have turned against me In
this way," he began, with a simulation
of anger. And then changing to a
conciliatory tone "Tell me what It Is
that troufcl9s you, Zee. I had hopad
that you were very happy here. I had
flattered myself through the summer
mat ours was a happy home. But If
mere is any way In which I have errfd
I am heartily sorry."
He bowed his head as though from
xne weight of his penitence, but he was
ejiaa io escape her eyes. When he
looked up again, he found her gaie
sua Dent upon him. He picked up the
fallen pen and placed It on the table
beside the paper which he had asked
oer to sign.
iou are a tremendous fraud," she
said, with a smile in which there was
no mirth or pity. "You are Immense
ly clever, and I suppose that because I
have some of your evil blood In me, I
am a little bit clever, too."
"Zee! You forget yourself; you must
be mad!"
"I am growing sane," she answered.
"I have been mad for a year, but my
reason has come back to me. I do not
forget myself or that you are my fath
er; but I remember, too, that you are
an evil man and that you drove my
mother into her grave. You killed he,
with your pettiness and your hypoc
risy; you are Just as much her mur
derer as though you had slain her with
a knife. But I beg of you, do not think
that you can play the same tactics
with me. I don't ask for the moniy
that you have squandered. It Isn't
your being a thief that I hate; It's
your failure to be a man! It's the
thought that you would betray the
trust of the dead of my dead mother
that's what I hate you for!"
He took a step toward her menac

shall have the- law upon him."
"You had better sit down," she said
without flinching. "I suppose you used
to talk to my mother this way and
that you succeeded in frightening her.
But I am not afraid of you, Ezra Dam
eron. If you think you can browbe.it
me Into signing your deed, you have
mistaken me. I was never less scared
In my life."
When she spoke his name It slipped
from her tongue lingeringly, and fell
upon him like a laBh. In addressing
him so, she cast off the idea of kin
ship utterly; there was no tie of blood
between them; and he was simply a
mean old man, despicable and con
temptible, standing on the brink of a
pit that he had dug for himself, and
feeling the earth crumbling beneath
his feet She went on, with no break
In the Impersonal tone to which her
words had been pitched In the begin
ning. "You have so little sense of honor
you are so utterly devoid of anything
that approaches honor and decency
the hypocrisy in you is so deep, that
you can't imagine that a man like my
uncle would never seek to prejudice
me against you my own father. Nei
ther my uncle nor my aunt has ever
said a single unkind word to me of
you. My aunt asked me to go to live
with her when we came home; but I
refused to do It And I'm glad I did.
This closer acquaintance has given ma
an opportunity that was in one of
your hypocritical phrases quite prov
idential, of learning you as though you
were a child's primer. You have been
a very bitter lesson, Ezra Dameron!
My mother never rebelled, never lifted
her voice against you, and you sup
posed I should prove quite as easy;
but you see how mistaken you are!"
"This Is a game a plot to trap mo.
But It shall fail. My own child shall
not mock me."
"I have something more to say to
you. I have gone over It In my heart
a thousand times In this year of de
celt I believe I have grown a good
deal like you. It has been a positive
pleasure for me to act a part shield
ing you from the eyes of people who
were anxious for a breach between us.
I know as I walk the streets and peo
ple say. There Is Ezra Demerol's
daughter,' they all pity me. They have
expected me to leave you. They have
wondered that I should go on living
with you when every child In the com
munity sneers at the slgM of you or
the mention of your name."
"Bhame on you! Bhame on you!"

her with a sudden hope In his face.

in her heart she felt a foreboding that
this might be true.
"You should ask your uncle; or your

like to have you quite sure about It,
now that you have decided not to mar

glee.

".'ever mind, Polly. I'll answer the

would be a relief; but It was 9 o'clock,
an hour at which no one ever caHYd.

Lelghton stood on the step with his
hat In his hand. He had been wan

passed the Dameron house a dozen
and she smiled a little, and stepped to
the table and turned up the lamp, and
put his glasses within reach of hi-
hand.
"I shall not trust myself to tell you
I shall let you read for yourself a fe
words, written by one who was not a
liar."
He watched her as she drew out the
little red book, her talisman and her
guide. He turned It over curiously and
then read, at the place where she had
opened:
feeling that Zelda might need his pro
tection; and he finally stopped and
rang in a tumult of hope that he
might see her again and reassure him
self of her safety. As he stepped ln:o
the hall, he saw Ezra Dameron peer
ing at him from the living-room door.
"Good evening, Mr. Dameron," said
Lelghton. The old man turned back
to the table and his papers without re
ply; but he listened Intently.
"I was passing," said Lelghton,
truthfully, "and I remembered a moi-
