again into his chair. Brotherson took

a shrug, he was about to lift his hand
to the door, when he gave violent
start and fell hastily back before a
quickly entering figure of such pas

has ever seen before.

His transom was partly open and he
had just heard step go by his door.
This was nothing new. He had al

that night. 1t was Mr.. Challoner's
step, and every time it passed, he had
rustled his paper or scratched vigor-
ously with his pen. 'He is keeping
watch for Oswald" was his thought.
"They fear sudden end to this. No
one, not the son of my mother knows
me. Do know myself"
