words-the name of the claimant
Richard Raymond. He didn't know
where he was going, but realized, at
last, that he was again in his office;
though by this time the great building

obvious fact that il was not even love
for the woman which had tempted the
man, but a plot, from the beginning,

which had been carried out. Robert
Stanton had silently, helplessly walked
out of his own library and his house
at the command of Richard Raymond,
peacefully surrendering all to him.
He thought Of the revenge he had

"Well, ones little brothers are al.
