CHAPTER XXIIL.
THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW.

TN the days that followed. while Bob
McAdoo lay battling with death.
his city learned what a hold he
had taken on its heart. Perhaps
in its newly discovered love 1t unduly
magnified his finer qualities. Perhaps
II too generously overlooked the sinis-
ter episodes in his career. His death
had suddenly come to mean an ire
parable loss, his recovery the thing
most to be desired.
The newspapers daily gave minute
reports of the progress of the disease.
In the street cars men read first the
account from his sickroom. II was the
first question they asked each other
when they met in street and corridor.
"What is the latest word from Nc
AdooT And when the discouraging
word was spoken they shook their
heads gravely. Prayers for his recov-
cry were offered in the churches. AS
his condition grew worse the news
papers-even those owned by his en-
emies-hung out hourly bulletins. Be-
fore these bulletins gathered great SOL
emn crowds.
There came a day when the news
offered no hope. He had suffered two
hemorrhages In quick succession. His
temperature had fallen far below nor

live but a few hours. read the doctors
bulletins. Before the newspaper Of
fees the great crowds waited silently,
stopping traffic In the streets, forget
ting hunger. sadly waiting for the end
That night a woman who had brav-
ed the dark streets alone and on foot
tapped lightly at the door OF McAdoo's
home and asked to see Miss Finn.
Looking across the hall into the IL
brary. the visitor saw a strange group
John Dunmeade, governor Of the
state; Patr K Finn. ex-policeman, and
Tom Haggin. ex-pugilist and saloon
keeper-sitting silent together in a
common grief.
There was a rustic of skirts along
the hall. and then not Kathleen. but

She looked at the visitor In amaze,

And the two women were in each

"Is he"-- Eleanor began. She could
not complete the question.
"The doctors say So" Mrs. Dun
meade answered quietly.
Eleanor disengaged herself from the
embrace.
Can l see Kathleen Finn a min
ute?"
Mrs. Dunmeade shook her head. II
fear not, Eleanor She is with him.
And they are expecting any minute
I'll ask her." And Mrs. Dunmeade
went upstairs.
A few minutes later Kathleen Finn
entered-a new Kathleen, whose face
was hard and stern. She looked al
