The foregoing was the purport Of a note
handed to Ralph Holmes. minute after he
had registered at the Palace Hotel, in San
Francisco
He was disappointed but too much OF a
philosopher to take it seriously. Buena VISTA
Colonel Edward Morton's place, was, so Ralph
learned at tho hotel. thirty 1--WE miles down
the coast. He was further informed that the
Colonel, who was director in nearly every
thing in the shape OF a company in the State,
frequently drove into the city.
Recalling hint dropped by Judge David
son, Ralph enclosed his card and the letter OF
introduction In an envelope and addressed 1t
to the Colonel.
He had other letters which he might have
delivered to people in the city, while he was
waiting for the mysterious Albert Howard to
make himself known, but an impulse that he
made no attempt To explain to himself, urged
him on to this course, and he blindly fol-
lowed 1t.
While looking over the papers in the famous
court the following morning, Ralph became
aware TINT there wasa man walking back and
forth, who eyed him in questioning way.
