AOonSN ot my WdtCu anu SdW IUdt 1t was nearly noon. I remembered that I had not yet called up Louise as had intended to do the very first thing that morning. What laggard lover she must think me! How heartless 1t must seem to her for me to leave her alone so long In the mansion where here father and sister lay dying, per haps dead, with the black shadowy mystery still hanging over her and them! What must she think of me? Filled with self-reproaeh l sprang up without word of apology or explana- tion to the others and hastened to the telephone booth had observed In the hall.

 Whats the matter?" she repeated, with surprise in her tone, which struck me peculiarly until I considered that long distance calls from Ardway must be such a rarity as to surprise even the operator.

 It was a good thing for her that she tried no more Jocularity with me, or r,,Io oS fanity would have been shattered. There was wait of several minutes, filled with the usual false alarms of long-distance telephoning, during which l stood and fumed At last heard my dear Louise's voice and has tened eagerly to ask after her wei fare. Her voice seemed strong and cheerful. though she admitted that she had slept little the night before. apologized for not having called up be- fore. She told me that while her fa- ther's condition was unchanged, the doctor thought he was In no immedi ate danger, and that Katharine was much improved. The doctor believed now that she could live. She was con.
 
 been forbidden to speak to her and was allowed in the room only for minute at a time. l hastily sketched for her the events of the morning.
 "Oh. Mir. Kent" said Lonise's voice how I wished she would call me by my first name-"who do you suppose called up?"
 "Who?"
 Hugh Crandall."
 What's that?" exclaimed, hardly believing my ears.
 Hugh Crandall," she repeated a lit tie louder and more distinctly. He asked for Katharine, and the maid called me to the telephone. 1 told him my sister was i'll and could not come to the telephone. He seemed greatly agitated and insisted on knowing what the matter was. He was so agitated and persistent I finally told him she had met with an accident. He was silent for so long thought he had left the telephone but all of sudden he asked. Did she shoot herself? and before thought l answered Yes Then he cried out, Oh, my God,3 or something like that and asked if she was fatally injured I told him that she was alive but unconscious. and then, Harding, he asked if 1 had seen
