TIL CIRCULAR STAIRCASE
#|lIDIkI'''ll4l

Thomas had a key to the east entry,
and gave it to her
On the way across the lawn she
was confronted by Arnold, who for
some reason was determined to get
into the house. He had a golf-stick
in his hand, that he had picked up
somewhere, and on her refusal he had
struck her with it. One hand had
been badly cut, and It was that, pois-
oning having set in, which was killing
her She broke away in a frenzy Of
rage and fear, and got into the house
while Gertrude and Jack Bailey were
at the front door She went upstairs,
hardly knowing what she was doing.
Gertrudes door was open, aud Hal
sey's revolver lay there on the bed.
She picked 1t up and turning ran part
way down the circular staircase. She
could hear Arnold fumbling at the
lock outside. She slipped down quiet
ly and opened the door; he was in
side before she had got back to the
stairs. 1t was quite dark. but she
could see his white shirt-bosom. From
the fourth step she fired. As he fell
somebody in the billiard room
screamed and ran. When the alarm
was raised. she had had no time to
get upstairs; she hid in the west wing
until every one was down on the
lower floor. Then she slipped upstairs
and thew the revolver out of an up
per window, going down again in time
to admit the men from the Greenwood
club.
If Thomas had suspected, he had
never told. When she found the hand
Arnold had injured was growing
worse, she gave the address of Lucien
at Richield to the old man and almost
500. The money was for Lucien's
board until she recovered. She had
sent for me to ask me if l would try
to interest the Armstrong; in the
enid. When she found herself grow.
ing worse she had written to Mrs.
Armstrong, telling her nothing but
that ArnOld's legitimate child was at
Richlield, and imploring her to recog.
ME him. She was dying; the boy
was an Armstrong. and entitled to his
fathers share of the estate. The pa.
pers were in her trunk at Sunnyside,
with letters from the dead man that
would prove what she said 1t was
she who had crept down the circular
staircase, drawn by a magnet, that
night Mr.. Jameson had heard some
one there. Pursued, she had fed
madly, anywhere-through the first
door she came to. She had fallen
down the clothes chute. and been
saved by the basket beneath. I could
have cried with relief; then it had not
been Gertrude, after all,
That was the story Sad and tragic
though it was. the very telling of +,
seemed to relieve the dying woman.
She did not know that Thomas wa.
dead, and did not tell her. | prom.
ised 10 look after little Lucien. and
sat with her until the intervals of con.
seriousness grew shorter and finally
ceased altogether She died that night.
