but it was evident he saw nothing.

Then why did he leave at all?" l

Gertrude rose angrily. You are not

ment he is shown to be. You profess
to know the truth, but you cannot tell

Halsey leaned over and patted my
hand.
You must take us on faith" he
said. Jack Bailey hasn't a penny

Gertrude, who had been standing
aloof at a window, turned suddenly.
But when the bonds are offered for
sale, Halsey, won't the thief be de.

Halsey turned with a superior
smile.
