AS Miss Innes locked up for the night,
she wna startled by a dark figure on the
veranda. She passed q terrible night,
which was filled with unseemly noises.
In the morning Miss Innes found a
strange link cuff button in a clothes
hamper Gertrude and Hasey arrived

card-room door
Come in, Mrs. Watson" the lawyer
said. But she shook her head and
withdrew; she was the only one in
the house who seemed to regret the
dead man, and even she seemed rath-
er shocked than sorry.
Before Mr. Harton left, he told me
something of the Armstrong family.
Paul Armstrong, the father, had been
married twice. Arnold was son by
the first marriage The second Mrs.
Armstrong had been a widow, with
a child, a little girl. This child, now
perhaps 20, was Louise Armstrong,
having taken her stepfather's name,
and was at present in California with
the family.
They will probably return at once"
he concluded, "and part of my errand
here to-day is to see if you will relin-
quish your lease here in their favor"

they wish to come" said. 1T seems
unlikely, and my town house is being
remodeled." At that he let the mat

enough, later
At six o'clock the body was taken
away, and at seven-thirty, after an
early dinner, Mr.. Harton went. Ger
trude had not come down, and there
was no news of Halsey. Mr. jamie
son had taken a lodging in the vii
lage, and I had not seen him since
