by JEANNE BOWMAN
"The last will and testament of Tom Bevins",
Judith dimly heard the words by which her former!
employer made her the heiress to five million doM
lars, gave her control of his far-flung enterprise
and threw on her slim shoulders a cruel burden.
Her hand held Tom Bevins' last request, prw
vate instructions for administering his affairs
Judith knew it meant strife, heartbreak and per'
haps an end to the romance with Norman Dale
For somehow, Judith sensed that her husband
would not be at her side in the bitter finish-fight
with jhe. Bevins family, a widow and daughter
grasping for a dead man's dollars and willing to
let his ideals crumble to dust.
Around this situation, Jeanne Bowman has
written a dramatic story of the girl who was willing
to sacrifice home, husband and friends, risk dis
grace and failure because she was loyal to a
trust.
