By VICTOR BRIDGES 3 CHAPLAIN SCHEDULE RVNOfSlS: Nicholas Trench U5( hat been acq ted of tht mur der of hit old achoollelloie Oa bornt. Bomtwhat thaken. ht re ttrtt to a tea room near tht prtton to read a letter from hit coiiMb, Sir Seymour: he doet not eel that the Inter compentatet lor hit eoueln't tltence throughout the trial. A man and woman rit(r the room, and bcaln dlteuaelnp the Trench trial, uihtch tht man hat attended. Chapter Four NICHOLAS' PROTEST FOR moment the conversation 1 was Interrupted by the return of the waitress. 1 sat In grim silence while plates chinked and teacups rattled: then, with the sound of re treating footutups came my male neighbor's Cockney accents. "Looked a simple enough busi ness to start with. There wasn't a doubt that the night of the murder Trench had been round at the house. Osborne must hare let him In him self, because the sorrant was out. "What happened no one llguiir knows, but the next mornlug Os borne was found lying on the car pet with his head hammered to a pulp. The safe In which he kept his papers was open and empty. He'd drawn five hundred pounds in notes from the bank the day before, and that was gone along with the rest." "What's he like?" Inquired the collecting my belongings, I retraced my way to tbe desk. It was obvious that the honey haired cashier mnst have overheard everything, for she took my bill with a shaking hand, and pushed across the change aa though I were sutferiug from the plague. By this time, however, I bad more or less recovered my sanity. 1 picked up the odd coppers without even a second glance at her, and walking quietly to tbe door began to descend the staircase. To tell the truth I was already dis gusted at my own foolishness. If there was one thing I wlBbed to avoid It was any further publlo notoriety, and yet here I was, like a complete Idiot, thrusting myself Into It at the first possible opportu nity. Why on earth had I paid any at tentlon ta that garrulous little worm? Why couldn't I have sat tight and finished my tea, Instead of mak ing a ridiculous scene, which would doubtless be discussed and exag gerated all over London ? 'TpHE more I reflected upon !t the more fatuous my conduct ap peared: Indeed I was so annoyed with myself that It was not until I reached the pavement that the most The following schedule for the CCC , chaplains In the Medford district, lias been Issued by Chaplain George Woodall.

"Trench I mean. An artist, isn't he or something of the sort?' "He's a sculptor did that funny lookin' statue outside Victoria Sta tion. Great big hefty chap make two of me. eosb, he's a lucky devil It ever there was one." "Why did thoy let him off?" "Ask me another! I'd have taken my oath he hadn't an earthly. Why, when they arrested him there he was with the notes In his pocket. Bunked off down to some little place In Essex and trying to get hold of a yacht so aa he could slip across to the Continent" "How did he explain that?" "Said he was acting as Osboruo's agent. Pretty thin sort of a yarn, wasn't it?" "Well, the Jury must have be lieved blni, anyhow." "The Jury! I lull you thoy were hypnertlzed by that fellow Ilarrolt. He didn't halt make a fine speoch fairly knocked 'em off their perch. If It wasn't for him, Mr, blooming Trench would be swinging In a rope, and between ourselves, that's Just about where the blighter ought to be." A SUDDEN unreasoning anger swept through me. Who was this dirty little skunk, and what right had he got to call me a mur derer? I Jumped to my feot, upset ting my tea-cup In the process, and almost before 1 realized what I waa doing I had thrust aside the tcrova. Two people spun round and two startled faces stared up Into mine. One belonged to a weedy looking youth In a blue suit, the other to an anemia damsel with bare arms and heavily rouged Hps. I took a step nearer. You know a lot about my prlvato affairs, don't you!" I said. The young man shrank back. Ilia Jaw had fallen and he gaped at me ta a kind of petrified terror. "It'a him!" he whispered. With a squeal like a filgbtoucd rabbit, the girl flung up her arm. "Keep him off, Perce." she gnnped. Don't let him come near me." I laughed a short, vicious laugh Hat broke from me almost unenn- .Inusly then turning round and disturbing and significant aspect of the whole affair suddenly presented Itself. Waa this Incident In any way typl cal of the aort of atmosphere I must be prepared to faco did It repre sent the general Impression which my trial and acquittal bad produced upon the ordinary man In the street? Mr. Crcsswell had assured me that publlo agreement with the verdict would be practically unani mous, but It was quite possible that In expressing this opinion he had merely been attempting to cheer mo up. After all that pasty-faced youth had sat through the caBe, and there waa no reason for supposing that he was any more stupid or malicious than others of his kind. It be had come away In the con viction that I waa guilty, and Unit I had only esenped being banged thruugh the eloquence of my court sel, what grounds had I tor expect ing a more charitable altitude from the majority of my fellow men? With this disquieting question In my mind I emerged Into the crowd ed trsfflo of Ludgate Hill. A neigh boring clock showed me that It was twenty minutes past Ave, and, after hesitating for a second, I decided that aa I could hardly avoid an in terview with Seymour, I might aa well go down to his Bat now and get It over. He had told me In hla letter that he would be at home until seven thirty, and since tliero was there fore no particular hurry, It struck me that tho outside of a bus would be the moat agreeable method of traveling. To catch one for St. James's street, however. It was necossary to cross the road, and I had Just don so and arrived snloly on the opposite side, whou a mucous-voiced news pnper boy came bawling along thb gutter. "Kvenln" Standard Mxrdcr Trial Itoc-sult all the winners!" I cuught sight of my own name In Inrge letters, and hastily producing a coin, 1 etepyed forward to inter cept him.
