The season of 1858, Adelaide Peck

jacksonville, Florida. Her father was
a celebrated physician. She was eigh-
teen years old, tall n slender, and
wore her magnificent dark hair in a
quaint style.

This discouraged Ralph for a time, but
the idea of Adelaide's relationship to
the wealthy Kemp family required.

n small gold 'ocket that always rested
on her white neck.

q pesthouse on a sand hill in the middle
of a swamp. There were about fifteen

later there was a military camp in the

was put on picket duty at the pest
house. AT the foo OF the hill were
hundreds of white boards indicating
the graves of the victims of 1888.

into which he inserted his fingers and
drew out a small gold locket. Opening
the locket he was surprised to see a
miniature OF his grandmother's paint
pleted the identification. The original
portrait of the beautiful Elizabeth
Kemp had been made by a celebrity
when she wes in the full glory of her
twentieth birthday. Walter put the
locket in his blouse and restored the
name to the niche.
While sitting on a mound in the
cemetery. wondering how Crane came
into possession of the locket, he became
uneasily aware of another presence.
He glanced up at one Of the windows
and saw an old man with long white
hair and beard. The old man came
out. He was bent and wrinkled Il
looked as though he had stepped from
one of the grave on the hillside.

Walter Kemp learned that the keeper
was DR.. Peck, whose mind had become

low fever epidemic that he had given
up his practice and requested the posi-

few days later the relieving guard re-
ported that the keeper had died sud
