There was no doubt Of her wish to

q conclusive further proof Of her iden-

A sudden inspiration flashed through
my mind. Miss Branscombe had sought
this method Of communicating with me
privately, away from her family circle,
and the reserve she maintained w.s
necessary for the moment in the pres

whom might be known to her by sight
at least. When the proper moment ar
rived she would explain herself. 1
