Nothing enture uy raincia weniworin arsoPBlst A reason why the bridge which nearly dropped Jer vie and herself to their deaths rotted o suddenly is suggested to Han Wears by Ferdinand Francis, friend of her husband and herself. Bhs is sure Robert Leonard. m tsrious friend of Rosamund Ca rta, JervW shifty iormer fiancie, tampered with the bridge. But how oan it be provedt Cluster IS VEILED THREATS H11 path under tha rbododes drool vat oool and dark; a blot breath of damp rose up Irom - between the twisted stems. There wa water not rery far away. Jer rls walked beside Rosamund Carew, but he didn't look at her; be looked Into the green (loom ahead of them. When they came to the place where a couple of planks crossed a brook, be stood still and said, "What do yon want to say to mr "Quite a lot of things." Jerrls looked at her In order to Insure the direction of a porten toni frown. 1 "It yon'ro really got anything to aay to me, I think this would be a good place to aay It, and then we can go back and join the Others." "It must have been a nasty Jolt for you. Pretty good team work wasn't ltr Rosamund swung round and stood with her back to him for a mo ment. Then she said oyer her shoulder, "Tou needn't rub It In." "I don't want to talk about it," said Jerrls "I never did. Don't you think we might go back to the others?" "No." "Is tbere anything else you want to say to me? Because If not " "Of course there la!" "Let's get on with It then." Rosamund turned round. Her face never varied from Its even pallor, but a still paler line seemed to have been drawn from nose to mouth. "You're aa hard as nails," she said. "It's no use trying to work on your feelings , because you haven't got any." "Yes?" She made a slight gesture with her cigarette. "Jervls I've got to have some money. I can't go on the situs, tton's Impossible I owe about twenty-five hundred." Jervis frowned at the running water. "You can send the bills to me I'll settle them this time, but not "I've got a lot of thlnge to aay," aha declared. "Won't she let you apeak to me? Poor old Jerrls I" There was a light drawling contempt in her voice, Jervls smiled, that sudden, dan 1 gerous smile of his. "You are too attractive," he said. "You always were. A man must defend himself." Rosamund drew at ber cigarette. "I've been wondering where on earth I'd seen her before. Bhe uued to dance at Solano's, didn't she?" Jervls nodded. "I believe (he did. Have you anything to aay about it?" "No I Just wondered whether you knew." "Certainly I knew. la that all yon wanted to say to me?. Shall we go back and have our coffee?" "It Isn't nearly alL Your coffee will have to wait. I've got a lot of things to say to you." "Say them," said Jervls. She threw away the end of ber jClgarette. It tell Into the water and with a little hiss went dead. She Idrew rather a long broath, and 'turned away from Jervls. "Did you wonder why I broke off the engagement?" "Oh no It was perfectly obvi ous." "You think I did It to get the money." Jerrls eyes met here for a mo ment Their expression was one of amusement. It stung her Into a hot protest. "Whs. a foul mind you've got! No wonder you were livid, If you thought I'd done a beastly thing iUke that!" Jervls laughed. "Perhaps you'd like to explain why you did do It." "I can't. But It wasn't anything to do with the money. You can't possibly believe a thing like that I" "Can't I?" "No, you can't. It's not true any way. And It you hadn't rushed off and married the first girl who ramped you, everything would hare been all right" again. After this you'll have to make do on your allowance." "Nonsense!" He looked at her, and looked away again. 'If I raise It a thousand, will you keop within It?" "No I can't It's no good pre tending that I can. If Uncle Am brose had known you were going to marry someone else, he'd havs left me properly provided for. Hs talked about it once before we wers engaged, and ha said he'd leave mi a hundred thousand." "What's the good of talking like that?" 'Qlre me that hundred thousand and let me clear out I don't bring you Tory good luck do I? Well, let me clear out I're got a good opening that I could take If I'd some capital. Let me go, and I're an Idea that It'll be better tor all of us." "My dear Rosamund," said Jerrls, "I'll see you at Jericho before I'll give you a hundred thousand dol lars!" "Jericho?" Rosamund said. "You won't get rid of me as easily as that You'd better' think again second thoughts are best" Jerrls laughed. "I'm afrold I might think for ever without your getting any nearer that hundred thousand. And now I think we'll go back to the others." He turned aa he spoke, and set a brisk pace back along the path. Rosamund walked beside him In silence. Just as they came to where the shade ceased, she laughed and said, "It would have saved a lot ol trouble It we had married each other wouldn't It?" Jervls stepped out Into the sun light. "Do you think so?" he said. She oould not see his face. (Copyright, IMS, htpptneott) Death lurkt about Nan and Jervls. tomorrow, and the mys tery eurroundlng them grows still deeper.
