CHAPTER III— Continued
Evidently Doctor McAlister hnd no
«hare In this Idea, for he lost Interest
In the young man the moment he was
satisfied Ills Identification of him had
been correct. When the train stopped
at Dak Itldge and we followed William
Harvey out of the car, the doctor did
Dot cast a single glance after tils re
treating figure.
Ity rare good fortune we found an
auto pulled up beside the station plat
form waiting for the train, n flapping,
dilapidated, mud-stained, ramshackle
affair, with a driver to match.
After a moment or two of ennny
bargaining on the doctor’s part, we
found ourselves Jolting along over a
frozen, rutty rond toward our destina
tion.
“There’s the house,” said the driver
at last. “But you’re pretty late for the
funwml. If that's what you’ve come for.
It must he about over hy this time.”
Neither of us had thought of the
funeral, and the sight of a hearse and
a single cur, waiting there In the wind
swept rond, gave us, with our errand,
a rather disagreeable sense of Incon
gruity. That feeling was heightened
when, leaving our tings In the hall, wa
were shown by the undertaker Into a
large, dim front parlor.
Here we saw death In Its most con
ventional form. A little group of peo
ple sitting In rows In little folding
chairs, n minister rending the service,
a quartette from the vlllnge choir
ready to sing another hymn when he
should have done.
When, ot the end of the service, the
customary opportunity was offered for
a last look nt the body which lay
there In Its black casket, my com
panion rose and, nodding to me to fol
low him, took his place In the little
procession that was filing round the
coffin.
I could not do I t ; thnt act, some
how, seemed to put the crowning touch
upon our Intrusion,
"Dh. I know how you felt about It,"
said my chief when the service was
over, the people gone and we were
left alone In the old house—alone, thnt

glad I haven’t to go through It again,
though I’m find I did, even nt some
violence to whnt they call onr better

look Into that face for a good deni.”
"You didn’t recognize" I cried, “lie

there In New Zealand!”
“Not Individually,” said the doctor

sort of man who might well have a
past that he was vainly trying to es
cape from. No. upon the whole, I
am glad that Ashton left us free to
work out this problem without hold
ing us responsible to him for our re
sults."
Our conversation was Interrupted
there hy the appearance of Mallory at
the doctor's elbow. It wns rather
amusing to watch his face as he read
the note from Ashton that the doctor
handed him. It wns easy to see, from
hit suppressed smile of rontewptuou*
amusement, that the district attorney
had represented us ns a couple of
harmless cranks who might safely he
permitted to amuse themselves upon
the scene of crime as they chose.
“All right,” he said, folding up the
Bote and thrusting It Into his pocket.
“Make yourselves at home. Do you
plan to spend the night here?”
"Two or three nights, perhaps,” said
the doctor. "H e want to do a.little
looking about."
"Hell.” said Mallory, with-Jocular
sarcasm, “If you find the secret of
the old man's past, or meet up with
that mysterious woman that one of
the witnesses testified about at the In
quest. why, let me know.”
“You mean to spend the night here
yourself, don't you?” I asked.
“Well, part of It. perhaps. I’ve got
some looking about to do. But you
needn't mind me. I've got a key and
can let myself In at any time.”
An hour later, after a bountiful but
vilely cooked meal at a little restau
rant near the railway station, we re
turned to the house and began our In
vestigation In eurnest.
The first room, of course, to attract
our attention was the room where the
murder took place, the study on the
third floor. Across one end of the
room ran a rude set of homemade
shelves occupied, perhaps, by two or
three hundred nondescript volumes, A
very large, much-littered desk stood
In the middle of the larger purt of the
room, while In the alcove was a high
deal table of the sort used by draughts
men. A stool stood before It, und a
swivel chair In front of the desk.
In one of the numerous corners of
the room was an Immense hamper,
which seemed to have served the pur
pose of a waste-paper basket. The de
tectives had evidently examined the
