a cheery greeting; but aa soon as we had

face, he exclaimed. "G« hk 1 heavens! Mar

"Olivia la dead I" 1 answered.
His arm was about my neck in a mo

still, when we were alone. He knew all
■ bout Olivia, an<l he waited patiently till
I could put my tidings into words.
"It must tic true," he aaid, though in 3
doubtful tone; "the scoundrel would not

"She must have died very soon after

I found thnt Jack waa already off. having
left a short note for me. saying he would
visit my patients that day. I had acar<e-
