they paused by the gate DR.. Emory
broke silence with:

A lump came into Dams throat. and
he answered huskily:

quite different from the account you
have heard
But

It Is also well for a man to have sense
enough TO know when he Is fairly
beaten. and lie was fairly beaten.
He took stock OF the situation. Quite
independent of his hatred of the fel.
low. he resented Ryder's presence there
beside Constance. But what was the
use of struggling? The sooner he BAN
ished all thought of her the better II
would be for him. His chances had
never been worth considering.
He stole a glance at the pdfr. who
had drawn little to one side and
were talking In low tones and with the
intimacy of long acquaintance. He
owned they were wonderfully well
suited to each other. Ryder was no
mean rival. had 1t come to that. The
world had given him its rub. He knew
perfectly the life with which Miss EN-
DRY was familiar. His people had been
the right sort. He was well born and
well bred. and he showed It.
1t dawned upon the unwilling Oak.
ley slowly and by degrees that to Con.
stance Emory he must he nothing more
or less than the son OF Il murderer.
lie had never quite looked at it in that
light before. He had been occupied
with the effect rather than the cause,
but he was sure that If Ryder had told
her his fathers history he had made
the most of his opportunity. He won.
dered how people felt about a thing of
this kind. lie knew now what his por.
ton would be. Disgrace Is alwf rs
vlcarlous in its consequences. The in.
nocent generally suffer indscriminate.
ly along with the guilty.
The doctor talked steady stream at
Oakley. but he managed to say little
that made any demand on Dams atten.
ton. He was sorry for the young
man. He had liked him from the start,
and he believed but IL small part OF
what he had heard. 1t is true he had
had the particulars from Ryder, but
Ryder said what he had to say with
his usual lazy Indifference, as If his In.
terest was the slightest and had vouch.
ed for no part Of it.
He would hardly have dared admit
that he himself was the head and
front Of the offending. DR.. Emory
would not have understood how 1t
could have been any business Of his.
1t would have finished him with the
latter. AS Il was, he had been quick
to resent his glib, sneering tone.
But Dams manner convinced the doc
tor that there were some grounds for
the charges made by the hands when
they demanded Roger Oakleys dis
missal, or else he was terribly hurt by
the occurrence. While DR.. Emory was
reaching this conclusion Dan was ours
ing himself for his stupidity. 1t would
have been much wiser for him to have
remained away until Antioch queted
down. Perhaps it would have been
fairer. too, to his friends, but since he
had Numbered he would try and see
Miss Emory again. She should know
the truth. 1t was characteristic of him
that he should wish the matter put
straight, even when there was no espe-
cial advantage to be gained.
Soon afterward he took his leave

the young man as he moved down the
street, and he continued TO gaze after
him until he had passed from sight IN
