nervous strain TO which l had just
been subjected, | was forced to view
this operation from respectful dis
lance and was glad when the investi-
cation was completed.
Leaving the rags, for such they
were, strewn about as MacArdel had
scattered them, we returned in silence
to the house and reseated ourselves
on the veranda,
Mac ] said abruptly, a moment
later, do you know that we left this
place standing wide open and that
some one may be inside by this timer"
Not much danger of that" said
MacArdel slowly. Whoever was
around here is as far away by this
time as he can possibly get. Make no
mistake about it, Ware, those pieces
of cloth down there have been around
a corpse,"
| shuddered in spite of myself. and
we slept in the same room that night.

to tell me about the ghosts at Carney
Croft; all that story of the Bruce
woman's prophecy that the place

'Humph." said MacArdel, thought
fully. And where's the Bruce woman
now?'
She lievs on the place yet" / re-
piled. Miss Carney gives her the use
of little house and about 20 acres
of land rent free, and some man about
here works the property on shares for
her. It's that billy land about a mile
east of the house, where the big ELM
is. You remember, / told you the
new golf links would take in that tree
and the land around it,"
Our return trip from the railway
station took us past Hoskins' again,
and that individual was summing him
self in front of the house as we drove
up.
by the way, Hoskins," said Mac
Ardel, stopping his horse and beckon'
ing the man toward him, whats the
name of the fellow that owns this out
fit?"
jerks said Hoskins, briefly.
Sam jerks, tn lazy cuss.'
when is he going to marry the
widow" asked 'MacArdel, in a most
matter-of-fact way.
That's jest it," replied Hoskins in
obvious disgust You tell me an I'll
tell you. Goodness knows; he's hen
a-sparkin' her long enough; ever sence
'baout a month after her boy got kill
ed. S'pdse he felt kinder sorry fer
her at first, an then, after time, he
began teh git mushy over IL. wish
teh goodness he'd either marry her or
leave her alonel What with his gal
