and a certain air of mystery attached to
a professional incident which might
otherwise be colorless, thought he heard
some person walking stealthily along the
corridor in which his room was situated.
Notwithstanding his nervousness about
spirited horses and high perched dog
carts the old lawyer was plucky enough
in other respects. He sprang up with
remarkable alertness for one of his years,
opened the door noiselessly and looked

He closed the door again, turned up
the gas and dressed partially. He had
the students habit of reading late at
night. If he tackled stiff book for an
hour the effort might induce sleep. His
hobby, strangely enough, was ship-build-
ing: within a few minutes he was deeply
immersed in a recent treatise on naval
architecture.
Then came that soft, guarded tread
again, which, were it not for the creaking
age of the oak floor, must have passed
unheard This time Angler was pre-
pared. He flung his bedroom door wide,
and the flood of light from within fell on
Harry Warren, standing, pale and open
mouthed, in the corridor He was without
his boots; he carried an extinguished
candle in his left hand; with his right
arm he encircled sleepy-eyed puppy.

For sometime thereafter Angler tried
to guess the true reason of Harry Warren's

excuse of the straying puppy as a stupidity
conceived pretext.
Warren himself, though vexed and
somewhat frightened because he was dis
