else to do but think over my memories,

OF my remoter ancestors. Bit by bit they
came back. l succeeded to a marvel IN

upon me with extraordinary rapidity [

What episode?" he asked, curiously.
1 paused and hesitated
Il couldn't tell you," 1 answered. 'It
would be-well, you must understand
equivalent, in fact, to a breach of conf
dence. Besides, 1 feel that 1 did these
things myself; and no man is bound to
incriminate himself, is he?"
He snapped at the word.
'Incriminate? Oh, really. Well, why
now incriminate?
Most people have things they don't
wish to be known; and those are the very
ones that burn themselves deepest into
the core of our memory"

"Quite true. Most true. What you saw
is very reasonable" And then he led me
on by endless other steps, in his cleverest
fashion, till had been obliged to confess
that, though 1 could describe the pattern
in my mothers room, and recall the ar

Yates-Westbury came forward-a little

"Quite enough, he replied, looking at
me through his eye-glass, "A man cane

AT that word I collapsed again. They
look me to my room. In an agony of
