CHAPTER xVI.--Continued.

Get your watch, ADVISED GaDrlelleN
and your pins and things. I've got
all mine in this chamois bag, except
the gold beads; they wouldn't go, so
I'll just carry them. I'm not afraid,
but / would rather have my things
with me, somehow"
/ collected my small store of val
uables, and we formed procession
Of three and ventured downstairs,
walking softly. as though afraid to dis
turb some one.
With every step our confidence re-
turned. We tried the front door and
dows in the hall and living room were
securely fastened; the dining room
also appeared impregnable; and when
we found the door to the safe tightly
closed, was beyond measure relieved
and almost ready to laugh at my sus-
picions.
In the kitchen we found the cellar
door open, and debated whether we
should lock it and thus prevent Mary
Anne's return, or wait and greet her
in disappearing array.
Let us listen" suggested Gabrielle,
and sat down upon the top step to
carry out her suggestion.
Then occurred the accident to which
I referred in the very beginning. She
held her gold beads in her hand, and
somehow managed to break the catch
and away they went. We could hear
them rolling down into the cellar step
by step, and Gabrielle was at first
motionless with surprise, then as us
ual prepared for immediate action.
I'm going after Them" she an
nounced, literally rising to the &C.
casion.
Down there?" shuddered Elizabeth.
"Oh, no! Wait till morning"
Il spent every cent of Cousin Lucy's
check on those beads" said Gabrielle,
folding her kimono about her and pre-
pairing to descend, land Pm going to
pick them up right away. Wait till
morning, indeed! You might suppose
they were pebbles"
We sighed apprehensively, but pre-
pared to follow our intrepid friend,
feeling that we must share whatever
fate was in store for her, as we'll as
help collect her property. So we went
carefully down the steps, holding our
candles we'll before us.
Those miserable beads had rolled
to the most remote places, of course,
and we got so interested in looking
for them we almost forgot to be
afraid.
Suddenly however,, Elizabeth gave
stified scream, which was more of a
gasp. after all, and shrank back
against the wall.
There is some one in here" she
whispered. 81 know it,"
How do you know"
Gabrielle tried to speak boldly, but
the hand which held the candle shook
until little shower of melted wax
fell upon the floor
II was feeling-under the steps,
Elizabeth found articulation difficult
when touched hair-human hair
We gazed at one another in abject
terror, unable for the moment to
speak or move: then Elizabeth, whose
nerves were completely unstrung
swayed suddenly as though she were
going to faint.
I'm afraid" she gasped-"awfully
afraid. It was hair, and-oh, dear!
what shall we do?"
