George Buckley had fallen. No
one was able to say exactly
how the thing had happened. The doc

man. and all sorts Of speculations and
rumors were in the air. 1t was not
until late in the afternoon that even
Hillyer had full explanation, for 1t
was not till then that he ran across
the letter George had written. Several
old men were in the office at the time

discover that some valuable papers he

been opened, and then he had heard
that report contradicted and could only

he came upon Georges letter he rose
