! was in the house for a week.
Much of that time I spent in compos-

to Miss West, and in growing at the

but he was less cheerful than usual.
Now and then caught him cycling me
as if he had something to say, but
whatever it was he kept it to himself.
Once during the week he went to
Baltimore and saw the woman in the
hospital there. From the description
l had little difficulty in recognizing
the young woman who had been with
the murdered man in Pittsburg But
she was still unconscious An elderly
aunt had appeared, a gaunt person in

he knows you took those notes to

Mcknight pulled up an armful of

beating until l could hear it. She had
not forgotten, after all
Mcknight took a bud and fastened
it in lis buttOnhole I'm afraid l was
not especially pleasant about it. They
were her roses, and anyhow, they were
meant for me. Richey left very soon,
with an irritating final grin at the
box
"Good-by, sir woman-hater," he
jeered at me from the door.
So he wore one of the roses she
had sent me, to luncheon with her,
and l lay back among my pillows and
tried to remember that it was his

What would they trail me for? Go
over and tell Johnson to get out of
there, or I'll pot at him with my re-

You can tell him that yourself"
Mcknight paused and bent forward.

a curiously alert little man, adjusting
his glasses with nervous fingers, my
face must have shown my dismay.

Here was the one survivor of the
