Inquired.
"I1 don't know," sho nii'niltted con

"But hla features?"

"And Stanton's. '"
t

" "lilcutonant Stanton" Peggy's
volcV grew husky with emotion
"foll'taco forwuid. When I screwed

; ;"'No, there Is only one person 1

Jamlcson Sinclair."
"And why pick on tho com
mander to. (Ill so dcsplcahlo a

"Because by tho terms of Dnclo's
will, It I spend more than an hour
In any 24 away from Yew Lodge,
within n month nnd n clay from tho

"A plorclng shriek from behind
tho portieres brought Peggy to her
feet a second later nflcr Jim's
bound across tho living room.
Julia groveled nn tho dining
floor; her liorrlllcd slnro Used on
the pantry door. ,
"It done c6mo dot way," sho
mumbled, over and' over, as speech
rolurncd to her.
"What came, Julia? Toll us,"
coaxed Peggy.
Slowly, painfully, the colored
maid clambered to her knees 11 ml, 1
with Peggy s assistance, seated her- ;
olf on a low stool. j
"I was stundlu' dar" sho sliud-

"Next time choose it less danger

vised, then ohtnlnlng her tlrst clear
look at Julia's twmk "Mercy, the
brass pin point must have
scratched you your collar Is
stained with blocd,"
Julia's lingers flew to her neck
just as o. knock, repeated with
more Insistence, sounded on the ve
randa door In the living room.
She made no effort tc tv.swer the
summons; Instead she &at glued to
tho stool, her numb lingers wan
dering over, under and around her
sailor collar. The cord which she
wore loose about her ueck and con
cealed from sight, was broken.
Brushing ir? Peggy, Jim opened
tho vorunda door and peered out

"Walt!" Peggy turned on the

Ho stopped and regarded her
nuoorly.

AS the gray car sped along the
Milton road on Its trip to Litch

sitting behind the wheel.
"Fill tier up witli gas," he bel
lowed, using his hands for a mega
phone, and Jim's iTuswering "All
right" came faintly to hm.
Obadiah watched tho red tall
light until It disappeared behind a
curve In the road, Ihon he went
slowly haiek to his house. Passing
by tho . front door he continued
around to the rear porch, and mado
himself coinfnrtablu In his favorite

Obadiah critically examined the holster; Aqulla said It was Stanton's.

wooden pane! with n resounding
whack. Ilo went to tho door.
"Well, well, Mr. Chase! Como In

open.
Obadiah busied himself lit light
Iiik the student lamp on one of the.
tallies nnd, seeing tliut his guest
bad chosen a chair, drew -up an
other close nt bund.
. "Tho months roll away," ho said,
with a faint sigh. "It hardly seems
a year since we've met."
"Might months, to bo exact," re
turned tho other.
','T,lmes have changed; Jim's
back and Herbert Prescott's gone."
Obadiah shifted about In his seat.
"You'll miss Prescott."
"Very much," agreed Chase. "In
tellectually, Prescott wns a delight
ful companion nnd his hospitality
was unbounded. Do you seo much
of his niece, Miss Prescott?"
"Not ,10 much ns 1 wns calculat
ing lo " Ohadlnh looked across at
the hnl-nlst Inquiringly. "Why?"
Ignoring the question, Cause
hitched his chair closer.
"I've Just como from Litchfield,

lOdgar SIMilon."
"1 Imaoino so,1' Obadiah com
munted. 'Toor girl, she's In for

"Sure, taking lilin for d burglar,"

"Slonr Town-," answered Chase
and, added; "lid clime lalo yester

Obadiah, as Chase paused. "Mat
I wouldn't take him in. Wcll, when

"Around in o'clock, when we both
went lo bed."
'"ICd fell asleep llrst, for I heard
him snoring, flien I, Km, dropped

"Hold hard," cautioned Obadiah.
