"Yes, Ajine." agreed the Judge, "Luclnda didn't know the difference, herself, then. If you'll remember what they've told you, Luclnda be came ill at Crescent City, while on a trip there with Luke. They rushed her to the hospital. Her baby was born there, and died. Tour mother bad died that same night at the time of your birth.

Sit down girl, think It over, I'll be back in a mo ment." Anne aank Into the chair. For a few momenta ahe eat staring out of the window, looking down the nar row canyon of buildings to where tho Willamette, a gray ribbon of water, wound along at the far end. The river was grey, the roofs of the buildings were grey, the rain clouds which hung low in the sky were grey. And the girl who looked out of the window felt as though she were ateeped In a greyish mist of conftiBcd heartache. "TP I could cry, I'd feel better, not I so smothery," she whispered. "I suppose I'm stunned now, like I was that . . . that awful night. Soon I'll realize." The thought was terrifying. She couldn't be a nobody. She Jumped to her feet and sped to the next room where Judgo Kellogg was staring out of the window. "Judge " ahe tried to control the hysterical note In her voice, "Judge, who am I?"

"Thlnga Ilka that don't happen In life," Anne said. Itrength and had began asking ueer questions, waa ahe told the truth." And suddenly Anne believed. Llttlo unrelated things flashed out of her memory to confront her with their ovidonco. She had told Harney, she never fainted. She didn't faint now. She stood up, gripped the cholrback un til her knuckles wore white and her flngors ached. Those people. That mnn and woman whom she had loved , . . whom she atlll loved so dearly, over whom she bad grieved lo deeply. They were not her parents. "I ... I can't . . . can't quite believe It." Her voice waa husky, labored. "It's so ... so melodramatic, so fan tastic. Things like that don't happen In life." In a moment she would awaken. This was another of those terrible dreams which had haunted her slnco tho night of the trngedy. There was a clock ticking slowly in the room. Like the clocks at school. Luclnda . . . Luko . . . but why hadn't they told her? A MOMENT of rebellion swept over her. Why had they taken her to their hearts, poured their lovo and care over her with such lavlshness, then withdrawn everything at a tlmo llko this? Judge Kellogg motioned to tho pasteboard cun of water he had drawn from the cooler and placed before hor. She looked at It stupidly. He picked It up and thrust It Into her hands, "netter drink," he In sisted. It she could only deny It In her heart, hut sho couldn't. Childhood. Visitors meeting her for the first time. "Doesn't resemble either one of you," they'd say. And sho would rush to a mirror lo study her reflection, searrhlng for one similar feature. She'd tried to resemble one or tho other, so hard. Sho remembered how, unable to copy Ludmla's small-boned grace fulness, she had taken to standing, feet apart, hands rlasped behind her back, chin out. like Luke, and how they'd InuRhed, and Luclnda had cried a little at the ludicrous little figure she'd msde. "Sorry I had to tell you like this almost Impossible to speak. He looked at the modlshly clad girl, at the white face dominated by the wide-Bet ilark eyes and darkor brows, at the brave uplift of the chin. "We'll find out . . . somehow," ho promised. "That means you don't know," she declared. "Ploaso won't you tell me everything? It's going to be easier to know the truth than face any more uncertainty like this." "Let's go back and sit down," he auggested and, arm about hor shoul der, he diroctcd her to the Inner room. "Judge, wouldn't adoption pnpera tell about my parents?" "They would Anne. If Ihnra any papers. It was duo to their ab sence mat i learned as much as I did. The Westport attorney, Cllve Bur ton's his name, telephoned mo last night. Ho know I had acted for Farnsworth at time. And Miniii,t r might be able to lornto the papers or some record of their hnvlng been drawn up.

Farley was lust beclnninr ht law practlco at Crescent City, where an oi mis iook place. Luke sent for him, their first meeting by the way, but aa your mother didn't regain consciousness, there was nothing he could do." He paused at tho oulck gasp which came from Anne. "That's It . , . that's what Tom Farley has known about me. Judge Kellogg that man hates me." "I don't think he's over running with love for anyone, excepting Tom Farley." Kellogg replied. Anno'a eyes wore wide, calm now. She nodded. "I understand. If he can prove I'm not adopted, then I won't be ahle to ask for my share of the estate." Kellogg nodded. "That seems to be tho Idea, If he would only be con tont to stop there." "What do you mean?". "He's planned further person Hon, Anne. That's why I said I must see you beforo anyone else."
