 Ellington turned ashen.
 "Dr Martin" he said, do you ac- cuse me of stealing your coin?"
 Before anyone could speak step- ped between them.
 Please" I said. 'let us have no more words like this. I am sure there has been some unfortunate mistake. If you must go now, Martin, can you not trust me to sift this matter to the bottom? Mr. Ellington is my guest here, as are all of you. am sure he would not deliberately take your coin. 1 am surprised at his attitude, but I feel that he must have some good reason for it. The coin must and shall be found and as it's loss occurred in my house I shall stand responsible for it."
 You cant do that" said Martin. 'I told you there was no other in existence"
 Then 1t wouldn't be much use to take it, for either it would have to remain hidden, or it would disclose hn Oft I,A l, T it." I said.
 That is true" said Martin. Good night!'
 He left us abruptly. The others, making various excuses, followed. When they had all gone save Billing ton l turned to him questioningly.
 "Well?" I said, inviting some ex- planation
 'I wish I knew you better" he said earnestly. "Then I should know bet ter how to begin
 There is only one way to begin ; I said. Have you or have you not the coin? If you have not, prove it to me-

 No I don't" he said quickly "Only, among gentlemen, mans word should be sufficient. I accept theirs; they refuse to accept mine.' But they were willing to be searched" said l. You refused" 'I could not do otherwise" he said I looked at him searchingly, pug zled. As l watched him, I saw him start. A look of intense relief-o; genuine joy-spread over his features and he walked quickly to the fireplace Arrived there, he stopped and picked up, from tiny crevice in the hearth a silver coin.
 In triumph he turned and held it out to me. I took it in my hand and ex- amined it closely. It was Martins coin
 Then why on earth have you al- lowed this suspicion to fall upon you?' l asked. "Why would you not con sent to a search, when you knew you were innocent?"
 He drew small silver object from his pocket and passed it to me.
 Because" he said 'I had in my possession what is probably the only other of these coins now in existence l have never seen one like it until Dr. Martin showed us his tonight" YUMA'S WOMAN ATTORNEX
