~ NE afternoon last summer two
IL pianos were unloaded from
W the way freight at Crosskill
pretty suburban village on
the west shore of a great tidal river
The instruments were neatly boxed
and were both consigned to Professor
Pierre Lucien Gerard.
After the train had pulled out OF the
siding and was on its laborious way
up Rickerstraw mountain Jacob Robb,
who was both passenger and freight
agent seated himself on one of the
boxes-the one which contained a con.
cert grand. the other holding an up
right-freed his extinct pipe from Its
residue with amusing particularly, re-
flled 1t and, still holding it in his
hand, extracted the waybill from his
inside vest pocket.
Pierre Lucien Gerard 1t is" he de-
cided. Now, who in thunder Is Pierre
Lucien Gerard?"
He did not waste any time In trying
to answer the question. Mr.. Robb
knew every man, woman and child In
Crosskill, and, for that matter, In all
the adjoining villages of Upper Cross
kill, South Crosskill and West Cross
kill. There were pair of Pierres, q
solitary Lucien and never a Gerard.
Such combination had never exist
ed in any Of the Crosskills during his
lifetime, and the common cemetery of
the villages contained no evidence that
1t ever had.
As be speculated, Lysander vorhis,
the village truckman, drove up and
without alighting took from his trou-
sers pocket bit Of soiled paper, which
he proceeded to study industriously.
Anything come for Peer Lucy-Ann
Gee-rardf" he demanded presently.
"Yes." Mr.. Robb admitted laconical-
ly. Help yourself, Ly."

boxes.

advised sardonically. "Who owns the

II guess you'll earn your money, Ly.
You'll have to call out the Crosskill

'I'n land 'em in that stoedy-oo Just
the same" the truckman declared be-
tween his teeth.
Lysander did land them. Before bed
