CHAPTER TX.

The momentary happiness which
his unexpected impression upon
Frances brought to Holbin soon gave
place to jealous rage, 1t was impos-
sible for him to rest satisfied. He
told himself that the war was on;
that he had been wonderfully success
full in his contact with the secret foe,
and that victory was still possible.
He went forth blindly into the city,
seeking information Of an unknown
wounded man. but, of course, no ex-
PLANTATION was forthcoming, for the
reason that no one knew OF such a
man. At dark he sought the police
man whose beat was nearest the
Brookin residence.
Pistol shot? Oh, yes; he had heard
pistol shots every night since the war
fever came on; the town was full
of excitement. And tho officer re-
membered also that recently a car
riage had been twice driven furiously
upon his street near daylight-tho in
cident had impressed him because the
hour was that in which tho city was
usually quietest. He had been un-

belonged to DIR. Brodnar, and he had
satisfied himself with tho reflection
that some sudden illness had made
the speed necessary. why" he
asked, sis there anything wrong
afoot?" Raymond assured him that
there was not and passed on, leaving
the officer convinced to the contrary.
All the facts Holbin had gathered now
confirmed Louise, but he had reached
the limit of his powers except in one
direction. NANNY" was the last wit
ness, and he 'hesitated long because
of her relation to Frances. Finally, in
desperation he privately summoned
her to his room. The woman stood
looking curiously at him as ne
charged back and forth across the
floor until he paused and confronted
her.
you are called nanny, 1 believe"
he said, sternly.
"Yes, sahl" Nanny was startled
and amazed.
''You are, of course, aware that you
now belong to my mother, and that
have charge of all her property"
'Huccum, sab, 1 b'long TO yo' ma?

my adjusted her glasses and looked
at him anxiously.
'That makes no difference, woman.
We recognize no will in this house
that conflicts with my mothers! l
want you to answer my questions now
and conceal nothing, OF it will be an
unfortunate day for you, old as you
arel Where were you night before
last?" Nanny was astounded. No
one ever addressed her in such a man
ner. She had long been privileged
character. True, since the coming of
the second Mrs. Brooloin she had lost
much Of her prestige but sho still
held sway over the servants; and in
the wing she reigned supreme.
