Mary found something familiar about him although ah could not place him at lint. But when he i poke, the remembered the tobac conlit from the ahop near Vln cent'i lodgings. I've a note for you, Mrs. Lenox." He handed her folded paper. She recognized Vincent's writing. "Darling," ah read, "I must . see you at once. It's terribly im . portant Will you pleas com witn in Dearer i - n wu signcu with the letter "V." Mary dashed cold water on her face. With a quick make-up she was ready. "I'm to go with you," sh told th old man. He nodded. . When they reached the shop th shutters were still drawn. Th . proprietor drew a key from his pocket and let her In th front door. -He's tn th back room," h di rected Mary. Sh walked through th shop, rich with th odor of a hundred mellow blends. In th dim light of the room behind the ' counters, Mary saw Vincent's blanched face. "I'm tn on of my customary Jams." He wu debonair, but bis fae was ashen. "Scotland Yard seems to want me. I was lucky enough to see two of their men before they saw me. I ducked In her to be out of th way. That's why I asked you to com here. I had to se you." , "I know about your Jam, Vin cent," ah spoke softly. "I had to be the on to inform on you. Car la . Marchatta kidnaped me yesterday. While X was at her bouse I heard Diana far tbi sinking of the air- ftouf' Tata told them? Vin cent 'straightened. ""Why, Mary. JVMIlfInt MI - what It WAtllff meant' ' ,nn nugni Happen so ' me?" I wasnt fhtnkmg of you," aha mM art). rm ! Milnlrina saving the Regency and the lives of a thousand men!" He stroked the scar on his tem ple with indecision. Mary softened. "But because of what X did you will get a break. Vou won't face a firing squad. But rou will be interned for the dura tion of the war." "I suppose this means you're through with me." Bis manner thanged. . "No," she answered. Tm going to stick by you. I feel it's the least t can do since I had to involve rou.". H reached for her hand. . "This may be our last tim to gether. Let's make the best of it If X had only an hour with you I could mak everything clear. I want to tell you about Carta about what a fool she made of me. Come," he was commanding. Tve a car at the side. Let's ride." JJIS plight was so desperate and he asked such a little thing. Mary had not the heart to refuse him. She allowed herself to be led out a side door and into a tiny two-seater Vincent had borrowed. "You asked about Carta and X told you th truth," he deftly di rected the little car through th throngs of London's work bound. "But not all of it I was ashamed to tell it ail, I guess. The night of the air raid, I did receive a message from Carta, as you guessed. Inadvertently, I tpld her we were sailing on the Moravia at I o'clock. I had no Idea this piece sf information was vital to her. X know we'd been warned to secrecy but I regarded Carla at a friend. But what a friend she turned out to be!" "You've never told me th true story of how you missed the Mo ravia's sailing. Was Carla In that, too?" "Yes, of course." His voice was full of disillusion. "It wu a stall. Something about a tick unci in Bristol. I flew her there. I wu tricked Into it, believing I'd have plenty of tim to get back and sail with you. But something went wrong with th plan and I pan- casea m a neia, miles from no where. I know now sh had it all planned. She thought I'd be use ful to her and sh didn't want m to sail or! th Moravia." "You knew sh sent an enam ored Continental boy on th boat?" Mary's words rang bitterly. L VYej, I learned 11 later, Sh tricked him into sailing to watch you." "Me why me?" "She was afraid you knew something or suspected something through me. When sh found you didn't die after all, she waa fran tic." Th car was well out of London.' An industrial suburb gave way to open fields. In the flat country, the single hangar of a small air port loomed like a large barn. Vincent drew the car to a spot before a sandy spread of ground. "But Vincent?" Mary was aghast "You're not quitting you're not running away?" aaa "VOU said you were going to stick my me," he replied u tie snapped back the emergency brake. "No matter what I've done. I love you and I've found a way ut for both of us." She wu uncomprehending. Tv mads my plans," he con Snued decisively. "I knew some liing wu wrong when I saw those Scotland Yard men and I acted last If I stay here and am in terned it will wreck my whole life, t wont go to prison. It would bs hopeless for both of us." She drew back in horror. "I've plans for us, a beautiful honeymoon. Well se the sparkle 5f the sun on the blue Mediter ranean. We'll swim in its waters and toast on its warm sands. At aight th moon will come up out of Africa. Youll see the palms silhouetted against it, black and bending in the wind." Th picture he painted wu bright indeed. "IH get a Job for a commercial company and maybe you can come an some of the flights," he went on. "Youll see the Arabs around their camp Area at night in the desert They'll b making their coffee and the smell is heavenly. And if a war comes that promises adventure I'll enlist for the etc citement." . A trim little ship was warming Its motor. "No! Nol" Mary tried to hang back. "You can't leave like tills. You were responsible for the sink ing of the Moravia ... for the death of Anna Winters and all the rest You can't run away. You can never be happy!" For answer, he hurried her to ward the waiting plane. (To Be Concluded) On With the New in Mississippi s i Newest Johnson tn Jackson is Gov.
