wife had visited during their stay In
France. Which towns they were |, OF
course, had no means Of knowing, yet
| felt certain that some means of dis
covering them would present itself.
That must be my work for the morrow.
A half hour passed, and sat lost IN
speculation, watching the blue smoke
curling upward. striving vainly to pen
citrate the mystery. For l was as far
as ever from a solution Of it. Who
were these people? What was their
aim? How had they managed to win
Miss Holiday over to their side, to
persuade her to accompany them, to
flee from her friends-above all, from
our junior partner? How had they
caused her change Of attitude toward
him? Or had they really abducted her?
Was there really danger of foul play;
danger that she would fall victim as
well as her father? Who was Mar
tigny? And, above all, what was the
plot? What did he hope to gain? What
was he striving for? What was this
great stake for which he risked so
much?
To these questions l could find no
reasonable answer. l was still cropping
aiInlessly in the dark, and at last in
sheer confusion l put down my pipe,
turned out the light and went to bed.

he was not to worry; quiet and sea air

hurried back to the office to make
my final report to Mr.. Graham and to
get the abstract which Rogers had
promised to have ready and which was
awaiting me on my desk. Our worthy
senior was genuinely pleased when he
learned that his junior was going with
me, though our absence would mean
vast deal Of extra work for himself.
The canvass Of the city stables had
been completed without result, but
suspected now that Martigny himself
had hired the carriage and had per-
haps even acted as driver. Such an
easy and obvious way to battle our
pursuit would hardly have escaped
him.
I finished up some odds and ends Of
work which l had left undone and
finally babe Mr.. Graham goodby and
started for my rooms. My packing
was soon finished, and sat down for
a final smoke and review Of the situa-
ton.
There was one development Of the
day before which quite bafled me. I
had proved that there were indeed two
women, and believed them to be
mother and daughter, but could not
in the least understand why the young
er one had 30 completely broken down
after the departure Of the elder with
Miss Holiday. / looked at this point
from every side, but could find no rea-
sonabie explanation Of It II might
be, indeed, that the younger one was
beginning already to repent her share
in the conspiracy. There could be no
question that 1t was she who had
struck down Holiday in his office, that
she had even refused to 60 farther In
the plot and that her companions had
found 1t necessary to restrain her, but
this seemed to me too exceedingly i'm
probable to believe, and as went over
the ground again found myself be-
ginning more and more to doubt the
truth Of Godfrey's theory, though
could formulate none to take its place.
l became lost In a maze Of conjecture,
andAat last l gave It up and went to |
bed.

The Northerner with some trepida-

rowed him swiftly and surely over the
turbulent stream to the other side,
proving himself an experienced oars
man.

by lying to me?" asked the perplexed
traveller. 81 thought you said you
