The Door Opens, and Closes Agai

The Door Opens. and Closes Again.
In one sense Hampton had greatly
enjoyed Miss Spencer's call. Her
bright. fresh face. her impulsive
speech. her unquestioned beauty. had
had their effect upon him. changing
for the time being the gloomy trend
of his thoughts
But gradually the slight smile OF
amusement faded from his eyes.
Something, which he had supposed
lay securely hidden behind years and
distance. had all at once come back
TO haunt him-the unhappy ghost Of
an expiated crime. to do evil TO this
girl Nadia Two men, at least. knew
sufficient Of the past TO cause serious
trouble. This effort by Slavin 10 hold
personal communication with the girl
was evidently made for some definite
purpose. Hampton decided to have a
face-to-face interview with the man
himself: he was accustomed TO fight
his battles in the open. and TO a finish.
A faint hope. which had been growing
DINNER and DINNER with every pass

this man Murphy. and to learn exactly
what he knew.
He entered the almost deserted sa-
loon opposite the hotel. across the
threshold Of which he had not stepped
for two years. and the man behind the
bar glanced up apprehensively.

"Slavin. sit down"
The terse imperative words seemed
fairly to cut the air. and the red
bearded gambler. who had half risen
10 his feet. an oath upon his lips. sank
back into his seat. staring at the APP
partition confronting him as IL s2sci-
