it was not far-fve or six miles-from
the country place Of the Haldane fam
lily. 1t was bought completely fur

ously employed was retained.
Gormly knew from the clipping bu-
reau that it was the custom of the
Hadanes to pass the Christmas holi-
days at their country place. He had
seen Miss Haldane rather less fire.

called a cottage, although it was more
like a baronial mansion than anything
else-on- the Long Island shore.
It was showing hard the evening of

through the faithful Chaloner, he had

there's a party down there stalled in
