about the tragedy. 4 die everything
could TO keep him comfortable and
happy. He spent all his time here
since he gave up his Office down
town. He read the papers every
morning in the paFlor. Every after
noon he took a walk He was always
on time to his meals and there never
was q complaint out Of him. On Sat.

mo, I don't recollect that there was
ever any one here to see him, though
occasionally he used to bring the boy
down here to lunch on Saturday or
Sunday. He hasn't had him here,
though, for the last three years"
Did he receive any mail?'
Amt it queer, now, that you
speak Of that! The first letter he had
in months came only last week. The
police found part of the envelope on
the floor beside him. Them and me
both looked through all his things, but
never a trace of the letter could we
find. 1 cant for the life of me think
what he could have done with it.
know the letter must have had some
sort of good news for him, for after
he received it, for several days he
was as bright and clipper as could be,
more like himself than he had been
for years. Then yesterday somebody
telephoned to him don't know who
it was, for I was out marketing and
he never had any phone calls before
that I know Of Right after lunch he
went out and was gone until after
three. Soon after he came in he
killed himself in this very room"
To my mind things were beginning
to look blacker and blacker for Gran
dali. The parallel between the cases
Of Katharine and Elser was entirely
too strong for it to have been mere
coincidence. We knew it was Gran
dali who had telephoned Katharine 1t
must have been he who had called
EIser. There was much to be eX-
planned. What it was that had driv-
en- them both to seek death was still
a mystery to me. My mind reverted
to my original theory that there was
child, whose existence had been
kept from the world, that was in some
way connected with the Parrish fam
lily. Old EIser was the guardian of a
boy. Suppose this boy was the child
1t would establish a possible connec-
ton between the two suicides It
would explain why Katharine might
have known old Elser yet never have
mentioned the man to Louise.
I took it for granted that Davis
would ask the landlady further about
the child. Of course, he would want
