inevitable, and trusted that the end
would meet with his approval.
He sighed as he folded 1t and re-
turned It to Its envelope.
"And that ends the guardianship"
he muttered wonder what I'm GO
ing to do with the old house now?"
From drawer IN his desk he pulled
q framed picture that showed deli
cately featured girl. with big. frank
eyes and wealth OF light, curling
hair that was half hidden by big
garden hat. There was a smile about
the lips TINT seemed very engaging.
and the muslin dress she wore had
been accentuated In its simplicity by
the art of the London photographer.
Pike had preserved the picture. which
had been given to him by old John
Simpson the day before he died, and
he sighed as he looked at 1t.
Then he laid it face down upon the
desk and dropped his chin into his
hand. 1t may have been an hour that
he sat there. and in that time never
thought OF his legal business crossed
his mind. He was busy with fanci-
full picture Of an unknown city that in
spite OF his desire seemed to take on
the aspects Of a larger Kokomo, and in
his fancy he could see big. well knit
young fellow bending eagerly over to
look into the face Of q girl, and he
heard her cali him Almeric,

mused-"a fine big man-to capture

Then Perkins came in to ask II Pike
wished to sail from New York for
Havre in two days time, stating that
1t would be necessary to leave that
night If Pike wished to take passage
on her.
"I'll go. Tom" he said. Maybe
you'll drop in here once in awhile and
tell folks that ask for me that I'll be
back In month or So"
Then he sat down and wrote to Jim
Cooley at London.
At 8 that night he stepped aboard an
eastbound train and the next after
noon was In New York. Sorrento
seemed long way OF. and It was
with a heavy heart that he walked up
