information about him. For thirty
years he had been accustomed to go

for a long while maintained comfort
able home at Khartoum and another at
Cairo but he visited these only at in
tervals, and sometimes was not seen
in them for year at a time. He was
known to possess great estates located
in Central Africa, but none knew posi-
lively where. He kept a retinue of
servants at each establishment and a
suave major domo in each was accus-
toned to being the nominal head of the
household. Neither of these men, how
ever, could give any of the wished for
explicit information about their mas

accumulation of furniture, bric-a- brac,

aggregates in every wealthy home, but

way smacking of the criminal They
were the homes of a gentleman of
wealth and culture. Any connection
between the African laws and penal
ties of Mr. Hackleye and the Indian
home of the Harcourts, it was impossi-
BILE to discover. The Harcourt menags
was located in the hill country. In a
most beautiful spot. Harcourt had
come there about seven years pre-
viously, at the time of his marriage to
Narcisse De L'Enclos, the widow. A
Madame Marie De LEnclos, whose
husband, Captain RaouI De L'Enclos
an honorably discharged officer in the
French army, had brought his bride
there Immediately after his marriage.
The captain had died a year after the
birth of his daughter, and Madame DE

son of an English nobleman, who was
then visiting a cousin in the Indian

young girl, then only IS, and Harcourt
were married. The young pair went
back to the hill country palace and the
mother left for a continental voyage
from which she never returned. though
1t was given out that she had died
while abroad. Then the Harcourt baby
came-a boy-and when he was two
years old he met tragic death. There
had never been anything to give rise TO
suspicion about the Harcourt home.
