The Wrecked
MOtOrCar
A Night of Adventure on
the Honeyspot Road.
By HOBART A. FELTON,

Abner Burton had guarreled with
Jean Prindle, and ! had sided with hiD
and had thus fallen out of the graces
Of Henrietta Frindlc. Jeans beautiful
cousin. who wore my ring on her en-
gagement finger The quarrel was such
an idiotir affair that all four Of us
were vexcd 1T our own foolishnesS and
sought diversion from our unhappi-
ness
Abner and entered his big motor
car and sped over the Long Island
roads to Montauk Point 1t was late
when we returned and quite dark by
the time we were halfway home.
The night closed in dark and foggy.
with a spatter Of rain now and then.
but the road was familiar, and we
were acquainted with most Of the
landmarks Neither of US had much
to say. but Abner drove the car reck-
lessly and broke records.
We tore up a long incline to the sum
hill. The road on either side was
bordered with thinly scattered young
oak trees that thrived in the sandy
soil 1t was bad hill, for it descend
ed stcenly on the other side. and there
had been many an accident on that
slope. | had narrowly missed one my
self the week before
On the summit Of the bill we poised
for an instant The big car took the
incline like Il Swimming bird, slowed to
the right and avoided heavy machine
that shot up out Of the darkness ahead.
Back in the road once more the whirl-
ing tires bit hard in the powdered
oyster shells | felt the trembling
thrill as Abner let her out to the very
limit We were nearing the foot Of the
long hill when another pair OF head
lights emerged from the night. My
companion fumbled with the levers.
muttering softly at his own impru-
dence Once more our car swerved
sharply to the right and then plunged
into thick darkness.
We Jared over a spongy carpet OF
last years leaves, while low hanging
branches slapped our faces. We
bounced over a crumbling obstruction,
hung on the verge Of space for an in
slant and then dropped into abysmal
blackneSS.
Iawoke to strong odor of gasoline
and my friends voice. holding qua
vering undernote of anxiety.
Wake up. Billy! You're all right!

The American Issue: Cook tnUIl-

great and wealthy city of Chicago,

rors of projecting furniture and locked

double bolted doors and windows. it
resolved into a neglected country
house. But now we strayed to and
fro in the darkness. for Abner had
used his last match. and we had no
guide in the velvet blackness of the
night. At last we subsidized on to ad-
iacent sofas in room that proved to
be the library, and there we rested
until dawn struggled through the thick
damask curtains. At intervals through
the night we had heard the repetition
of those weird cries from the second
story, but we did not dare face another
interview with the indignant ladies.
We rose to our feet. lame and stiff
and sore, to make our exit from the
lonely house that seemed to possess
some battling mystery. AS we fun
bIed with the thrice locked and bolted
front door. in order to make digni-
fed exit from the place, we heard foot
steps on the polished stairs and turned
around.

her serge frock. There was her cousin.
Henrietta Prindle. in q royal purple
gown over her serge frock, and both
of them looked scared and vexed and
very glad to see us. And Jean was
