side of the carriage door and other

Cluded that the horses must have stood
quiet for some time. He surmised that
the inmates of the carriage had taken
advantage of the stop to get out and
go ahead while Strathgate lay stunned
After final search Of the interior
of the carriage In which he was re-
warded by finding tiny bowknot of
scarlet ribbon which he thought he
recognized as one that had trimmed
Mistress Debbie's gown, for it was a
color she affected. and which he
tucked carefully away in his pocket.
An hour from the carriage he came
upon a bay coach horse struggling by
the wayside, with certain portions of
harness dragging from him. Here was
another mystery. II there had been
two horses. where was the other?
Why was he abandoned in the high
road not soul being near? The
horse permitted him to get close
enough to enable him to see that the
traces which dangled from his sides
had been severed by knife. There
could be no doubt that this was one
OF Carringtons coach horses.
There was no reason on earth, II
they had started out on two, for aban-
doning one.
He galloped down the road and in
few minutes came to a little f shing
village. Some of the fishermen had
gone off for the days work in their
boats. but one grizzled sailor was
moodily pacing up and down the little
wharf Refining his horse In on the

spiles-"and when l got up I was the

WAS there any message-any clew

'Naught but this" returned the sail
