Mr.. Justis had voice that matched

gone for half an hour by the clock that
Storer mechanically watched.
The house was deep, the ceilings were
high, the doors heavy. No sound Of

silence.
Mr.. Justis returned slowly, speaking

"It's no use. Sallie must see these

I won't be slandered or judged by any
one. Sallie can come home tonight or
she can stay away, as she thinks best. I
need not detain you with useless argu-

Storer left the house. He was in a
