CHAPTER V
rpHE Harkness ultcases tumbled
from Kinks' arms. For a mo
ment he stared blankly at Sally.
Then he shook his head.
"Lady," he said, "you're all wet
You're not going to marry some
blemish named Wilton."
"For your .Information," said
Sally, coldly. "Wilton Ames Is not
a blemish. He's in the bank here
and doing very well, too."
"Okay, okay. I didn't impugn
his financial status. I merely said
that you weren't going to marry
him."
"And just who are you to decide
that?"
"Me?" said Kinks. "Don't you
know me? I'm the guy you are
going to marry."
She looked at him as If he were
an escaped lunatic.
"Stop babbling," she said, "And
take those bags upstairs. Th
Harkness es will want theli
things."
Kinks retrieved the fallen lug
gage. "Look here," he said. "This car
buncle Wilton Ames must be
something to the gent at the bank.
You know, the one who holds the
mortgage on this place."
"He's his son," said Sally. "So
what?"
"So if this Wilton thinks enough
. .-mi 4 want in msTTY VOU. he
ought to be able to get his ol
man to extend ine ume 01 me in
terest payment"
SALLY shook her head doubt
fully. "I don't think he could
You don't know Spencer Ames
He's as hard as nails. And I well
I think he's got some sort of In
terest in this place."
When Kinks came back froir.
taking the Harkness bags to theii
rooms there was a concerned look
on his face.
"We're going to have to watch
old Harkness," he said, "or we'D
all be electrocuted. He's got s
couple of suitcases full of electrical
gadgets. And he's already begur
to tamper with the wiring In hi!
room."
"Well, I don't know what we car
do about It" said Sally. "Th
customer is always right isn't he?'
"Guess so," said Kinks. "Well
come on, beautiful. You're driv
ing me to the station."
"OTATION? What on earth for?"
" "I'm going to New York,"
Kinks announced. "Ill check out
of the place I live, get some things
and be back bright and early to
morrow. I suppose we can both
live under this root There seem
to be plenty of chaperones."
"You would do something like
that, walled Sally. "You saddle
me with two strangers and then
leave me to cope with the situa
tlon."
Kinks did not quite make good
his threat to get back to the Pres
ton place bright and early the fol
lowing day. True, he returned to
Winstock on a morning train. But
upon arriving he spent several
. hours in the village. His ambition
was some form of advertisement
which would announce the exist
ence of the Pennington-Parker
Restatorium and he finally fer
reted out a man of many accom
plishments who listed sign-painting
among them.
And while Kinks was standing
over this gentleman superintend
ing the preparation of the sign, a
two-man conference was going on
In the First National Bank of Win
stock, Connecticut
Mr. Spencer Ames was a griz
zled individual of 60-odd, with
pale, cold eyes. He had a thick
body, huge shoulders and a neck
which bulged around his collar in
a role of red flesh. But his obesity
was mere camouflage for a mind
as sharp as a whip. Spencer Ames
- never missed a trick.

"He says his girl can cook anything maybe she's got a

TTE was looking across his desk
now, searching the counte
nance of his son, Wilton.
"What's all this that's going on
at the Preston place?" he inquired.
Wilton shrugged. He was a
thick-set young man who, as yet,
had not taken on his father's cor
pulence. But he had the same cold
eyes, colored a light blue. His hair
was straight and brownish, parted
carefully in the middle.
"Search me," he said. "I didn't
know anything was,"
"Then you don't keep your ears
open," said his father sharply.
"It's all over the village that the
Pennington girl has taken in
boarders."
Wilton sat up In his chair.
"Boarders?"
Spencer Ames lit a cigar.
"Here are the facts," he said.
"That nephew of Mrs. Preston's,
who inherited a hall interest in
her estate, finally showed up yes
terday. He and the Pennington
girl called on Kenworthy. Just
what was said over there, I don't
know. But by nightfall there were
two other people at the Preston
house and the Clipstack woman
told Giles that they're going to
board there. Who they are or
where they came from, I haven't
iny idea. But . . . well, what do
rou make of it Wilton?"
"Well." said Wilton, starting to
lis feet, "I'm going down there
ind find out about this."
"Not so fast" said Spencer. "I've
me or two things to say to you,
Wilton." He put the tips of his
lngers together and gazed at his
ion. "As you know, we hold a
mortgage on the Preston prop
!rty." "So what?" said Wilton Inele
fantly. "So," said Mr. Ames, "I am very
such interested in knowing
whether or not this young man,
whose name is Parker I believe,
is in a position to continue the in
erest and amortization payments."
"And if he is or isn't?"
Mr. Ames set the cigar In an
ish tray and spoke carefully.
"If he is," he said, "I shall have
o do a good deal more thinking
ibout this matter than I've already
lone. But if he isn't . . . well, I
ihall be very much pleased, that's
01."
"Listen," said Wilton, a little
rritably, "I'm not getting this.
BThat does the Preston place mean
x you, anyway?"
His father's keen eyes shown
urith their cold light
"Just this," he said. "A few
weeks ago a representative of
Farnsworth Hotels, Incorporated,
of New York called on me. He
was Interested in possible sites for
country hotels or inns. Well, I
took him over to Preston's. And
ae thinks his firm will want to
auy it, that's all."
