The inspector of police stepped for

Sir George as the ambulance was

"a woman has been found murdered
in the wood, sir" was the reply.
The words were expected, yet they
! fell as a thunderbolt on the perpe-
traitor of the crime.
| What should he say? He must speak
He must say something, yet what
could he say? In front of him stood
the inspector, respectful and diffident,
waiting to hear a horror-stricken re-
ply And others near at hand were
listening, too, for that horror-stricken
reply. All eyes were upon him, noting
his pallor. his silence, mis- confusion.
How was she killed." He jerked
out the question at last.
Wounded in the arm, sir. If she
hadn't been found in that shallow pit,
we'll hidden under leaves recently
thrown there, / should have had my
doubts If it wasn't case of suicide
Are you certain that it is not?"
A golden thread of light flashed like
lightning across the ebony blackness
of Sir Georges mind as he waited for
the answer.
"Oh. quite certain, sir. Her clothes
are covered with blood, too. She
couldn't have thrown all those leaves
over herself when she was bleeding to
death. If there'd been just a sprink.
ling of leaves we might have thought
the wind had blown them down upon
her. But they were heaped up so
high in parts that we'd job to clear

to feel In her pockets, and found a re-
turn ticket to Dainton and two-shill-

nse in tracing where she belongs to-"
Yes; and-but-wh led to her
discovery Nervously Sir George
asked the question.
"Ah, sir; that's one Of the saddest
parts of the whole business. Her
poor child, who seems bit short
witted, was found lying alongside Of
her fast asleep. How he got there,
goodness only knows! It's cersain he
can't have been there over long, or
he would have been frozen to death.
| It's very fortunate that woman, who
Happened to be going through the
wood, CHANGED to come upon them
And where is he?"
He's been sent to the workhouse,
and i expect they'll put him in the in
Urinary. Later on shall step around
there and try to get out of him what
his name is and where he lives. It's
pitiful to see TIC state he's IN, poor
little chap"
Indeed. remarked Sir. George,
scarcely knowing what he was saying.
