Gertrude and Halsey went for a

slept. Time hung heavy on my hands,
and l did as I had fallen into a habit
of doing lately-I sat down and
thought things over. One result of
my meditations was that got UP sud
denly and went to the telephone. I
had taken the most intense dislike to
this DR.. Walker, whom I had never
seen, and who was being talked of in
the countryside as the fiance of Louise
Armstrong.
I knew Sam Huston we'll. There
had been time, when Sam was a
good deal younger than he is now, be-
fore he had married Anne Endicott,

felt no hesitation in calling him over
the telephone. But when his Office

why, how are you, Rachel?" Sam
said generously. "Going to build that
house at Rock View" 1t was a 20
year-o]d joke of his.
Sometime, perhaps" said. "Just
now I want to ask you a question
about something which is none of my
business"
II see you haven't changed an iota

This was intended to be another jest

to marry DR.. Walker"
When the architect had inquired fol
the different members of my family
and had finally rung off, was certain
of one thing. Louise Armstrong was
in love with Halsey, and the man she
was going to marry was DR.. Walker
Moreover this decision was not new;
marriage had been contemplated fol
some time. There must certainly be
some explanation-but what was it?
That day I repeated to Louise the
telegram Mr.. Harton had opened. She
seemed to understand, but an unhap

looked like criminal whose reprieve
is over, and the day of execution ap

At the foot of the staircase, hud.

limp and white, her dressing-gown
dragging loose from one sleeve of her
night-dress, and the heavy braid OF
her dark hair stretching it's length a
couple of steps above her head, as If
she had slipped down.
She was not dead; Halsey put her
down on the floor and began to rub
her cold hands, while Gertrude and
Liddy ran for stimulants. AS for me-
sat there at the foot of that ghostly
staircase-sat, because my knees
wouldn't hold me-and wondered
where it would all end. Louise was
still unconscious, but she was breath
