DANGER AHEAD
fpOM turned th color of a tallow
candls,
"Ths-r4hs emerald?"
"He kept right on about them
bow he'd hidden them, and no one
else knew where they were. I tell
yon he kept right on. I've got to get
him away before anyone tumblee to
what be'e talking about." .
Tom leaned back agalnat the fide
of the car and fixed an alarmed gaze
npon his sister's face. His eyet were
of the same shape and color aa
Kesta's; he had the same atralght
nose and short dark brows, the same
line of cheek and chin. But the drlr-
"IS3 LEIGH?" said the da)
i'l nurse.
"Oh yes," said Caroline Leigh In
that warm, dark roles of hers.
Someone once said that Caroline's
voice waa like damask rosea. He was
an Infatuated young man who wrote
poetry. Caroline laughed at him
kindly but firmly, and all her friends
chaffed her about her crimson roloe.
All the same there was something
In It
"We're up to our eyes," said the
day nurse. But she did not say It aa
firmly aa she might have done If
Caroline had sot been gating at her
with the sort of melting Intensity
which very few people had been
known to resist.
"I know," said Caroline. "And I'm
too sorry to bother you, but I've
come about the message that was
broadcast last night, because I think
the man who waa picked np may be
my cousin, Jim Randal. And oh,
please may I see him?"
The day nurse took the time to
look at Miss Caroline Leigh. They
were busy In the ward, but perhaps
not quite so busy as she had said.
The six bus cases were none of them
desperately serious, and they had
all been got to bed and bad their in
juries dealt with.
She could spare a moment to look
at Miss Leigh, who was n very easy
"HI wife took him away," said the nurse.
Ing force waa lacking. He felt the
teel teeth of the trap, and struggled
Ineffectually.
"Look here, Nesta "
She mimicked him.
"Look here. Tommy "
" 'Tlsn't fair to go bringing me and
Min Into this. You go of on your
own and marry a man we've never
so much aa set eyes on, and then all
In a hurry you come along and tell
me he's a orook, and before I know
where I am you've dragged me Into
this Van Berg affair, and there's a
man shot and emeralds worth no
one knows what missing and why
should I be dragged Into It when all
I ever did was to lend him my
motor-bike? Why, all I saw of him
was to hand It over In the dark."
"Hold your tongue!" said Nesta
sharply. "You won't come to any
harm It you do what you're told.
Now look here. Tommy, you're not to
get rattled. It's not the first little
Job we've done together Is It?"
"I'm going straight now I'm mar
ried I told you I was."
She patted his arm.
"So you shall. But we've got to got
Jimmy away from here. Listen! He
came to himself yesterday, and he
didn't know a thing not hla name,
nor who he la, nor anything. When
be'a awake that's how he Is; but
when he's asleep he talks all the
time, and the sort of thing he talks
about Is the sort ot thing that'll
land you and me In jail. Now you've
got It straight and now you know
why I'm not leaving him here to
talk. I want my share of those emer
alds, and I bet you want yours. Yon
can go straight afterwards sa much
as yon like, bnt you've got to help
me now."
"Nesta."
She gave hla arm a squoeze.
"Buck up, boy! We'll pull It off.
I'll get you safely back to Mln
don't you worry. Now drive right
In and remember w come from
Marley, and all you've got to do Is
to hold that wheel and keep your
tongue between your teeth."
person to look at shining eyos an4
pretty hair, and a way with her,
She was sorry to have to disappoint
the eager croature. She didn't look
as It she was used to disappoint
ment; she was more like a child
that puta out Its hands and eipocti
to have them filled with flowers 01
sweets. "Life Isn't like that well
she'll soon find out," said the daj
nurse to herself.
"T'M sorry," she said aluud, "bui
I'm afraid It wasn't your cousin
who was here."
"Was,?" Caroline waa the plcturt
of dismay. "Has he gone?"
"The name waa Rlddcll," said th
nurse. "And his wife came and took
him away."
"Oh, hla wife?"
"We let him go because shi
seemed so keen on it., and there waa
a bus smash we had to take In. Mrs.
Rlddell's one ot those people who
will have It their own way at least
that's how she struck me. I'm sorry
It wasn't your cousin."
"Oh," said Caroline "so am I."
"He was on the Alice Arden ?"
"I don't know. Oh, I hope h
wasn't!"
"It you don't know, I should go
on hoping," said the day nurse.
Caroline looked at her with shin
ing eyea.
"Yea, I can can't It You see, I
haven't seen him for a long time
on, not since I was about fifteen
and he'a been all over the world
he's an engineer and he came horns
In July, and I waa In Scotland. Then
he wrote from London, and I wrote
back and said why not come and
Join ns. And he said he would. And
he was going to come by coastal
steamer because he liked the sea."
"Then you don't know that h
was on the Alice Arden?"
"No. But I'm afraid, because hi
hasn't written. You're sure It wasn't
Jim?"
The nurse nodded.
