and the women chatted freely and Richard
Wilkins was tremendously brilliant TO Lady
Harston, dashing of vishnager in one ter
rible epigram, Mrs. Denison, who had been
talking quietly apart to Vishnsger, slipped
out Of the room and ran upstairs. She re-
turned with two large morocco cases In her
hand and gave them to vishnager.
They are all right" she said, and you
can't guess what a weight you have taken
off my mind"
Doesn't il rather give the show away"
he said, Ito carry them like this? Let's ring
and have them wrapped up"
NO" she said. II wouldn't let them be
for one moment in the hands Of the oldest
and the most faithful. I'll get some brown
paper and do them up myself. No, it's no
trouble. | love doing up things"
She brought a large sheet OF brown paper
ana went to the writing table. There she
made the two cases into one parcel and
sealed Ii profusely with the armorial bear
ings of the Harstons.
THAI makes it look horribly precious"
said VisEnager, but I'll take my chance. I
haven't told anybody I am going TO walk
from here TO the station with twenty thou
sand pounds worth Of diamonds under my
arm. and the proceeding is not 50 usual that
dishonest people will be on the lookout for
it"
For a moment or two Vishnager let his
eyes stray round the room, comparing Eva
Denison with the other women, much to the
disadvantage of the other women. She was
very simply dressed. AS a matter of fact.
she spent rather more on being quite simply
dressed than most women spend on elabora-
tlon- Then Vishnager rose, said goodbye
to his hostess. refused with thanks her
oner of the dogcart, and started on his
walk TO the station.
BY this time it was quite dark. He had
hardly gone five yards before he had en-
tirely forgotten how precious was the parcel
which he held under his arm. He remem-
Lered 1t a quarter of IN hour later, when, as
he passed down a dark and lonely lane, a
man rushed out from the hedge and tripped
him UP. He got up at once. The man made
a grab at his watch and Vishnagar hit him
in the face. Then the man ran away. As
he did so, Vishnager m that he
had dropped the parcel. He had to strike
a match to find It.: but he did find Ii. 1t
was a little muddy but the seals were I'M
broken and untouched. He had no further
adventure until he deposited it in the safe
IL his dressing room.
