Still uhder the influence of the stones and trees that he had just left. he moved directly toward the sound and, without waiting for permission, entered tle room After the darkness of the passage it seemed well alight. for, besides the lamp with it's green shade, a large fire burned in the grate and helped 10 diSpel the shadows. As he entered the room Chilcote rose and came forward. his figure thrown into strong relief by the double light. He was dressed in a shabby tweed suit; his face looked pale and set with a slightly nervous tension. But. besides the look and q certain added restless ness of glance. there was no visible change Reaching Loder, he held out i his hand.

Il don't think you'll find any loose ends, he said as he turned bHck the pages II had yol | and your position in my mind all through" He paused and glanced up from the book You have position that absolutely insists upon attention he added in q different voice.
 At the new tone Chilcote looked up as well "No moral lectlRes. he said. with nervous laugh.
