 He sat quite still, with his face shielded by the paper, a storm of wild, unavailing rage filling his breast. In moment the woman, who had been arranging some tempting morsels on plate for her young mistress, went out of the room; then Ingot ground out an oath as he flung the sheet down.
 "The rascals! Serves me right for letting them get ahead of me. I'd ought to have sent the police a hlnt that would have made a scattering in that nest of thieves, but I couldn't be sure what time would have use for them. Confessed, did hes I wonder to Whats Something that will make it wise for me to make myself scarce as soon as possible, suspect; but let me look at tho thing straight The cops may be after me, but then again it takes time to get the ma- chinery of the law under way.

May be that things ain't so bad but can find loophole to crawl through, but first, last, and above all, I'll tie tho girl fast if it's only to keep that snip of a Bergman from getting her."
 Having come to this decision, MT. Ingot lost no time in further thought. He called Sarah and sent her for Carols wraps, send- ing message to his bride that he was awaiting her.
 She came, white almost as the lily in her belt, but quiet and submissive, questioning nothing as he hurried her to accompany him, turning aside to give a last order to the factotum.
