turned to her once more. Isis 1t

There was a long silence. "Yes. /

Sara wrandall laid her heavily
gloyed hand on the slim fingers that
touched the tire.
Listen to me-" she said, shrill
note OF resolve ringing in her voice.

you let me take you with me?"
The girl drew back, wonder and APP

They drew apart TO confer, leaving
her sitting before the fire, stark fig
ure that seemed to detach itself en-
tirely from it's surroundings and their
companionship. At last the coroner
came TO her side and touched her arm.

torney and the police will say to 1t,
Mrs. Wrandall, but | shall take 1t upon

words.

nodded. Il shall make it point, Doc

positive?"
81 am positive. He is-or was
Challis Wrandall."
Half an hour later she was ready for
the trip to New York city. The clock
in the office marked the hour as one.
A toddied individual in a great buffa-
10 coat waited for her outside, hic-
coughing and bandying jest with the
half-froZen men who had spent the
night with him in the lorlorn hope of
finding the girl.
Mrs. Wrandall gave final instruc-
tions to the coroner and his deputy,
who happened to be the undertaker's
assistant. She had answered all the
questions that had been put to her,
and had signed the document with a
firm, untrembling hand. Her veil had
been lowered since the beginning of
the examination. They did not see
her face; they only heard the calm,
low voice, sweet with fatigue and
dread.
Il shall notify my brother-in-law as
soon as l reach the city," she said.
He will attend to everything. Mr..
Leslie Wrandall, l mean. My hus-
bands only brother. He will be here

The coroner hesitated a moment be-
fore putting the question that had
come to his mind as she spoke.
1.-TWO days ago, madam? May ! in
quire where your husband has been
living during your absence abroad?

lhe SHldl matter OF oO miles, even un-
der the most trying of conditions?
Sharply there came to her mind the
question: was she the only one abroad
in this black little world? What of
the other woman? The one who was
being hunted? Where was she? And
what of the ghost at her heels?
The car bounded over a railroad
crossing. She recalled the directions
given by the man at the station and
hastily applied the brake. There was
another and more dangerous crossing
hundred yards ahead. She had been
warned particularly to take 1t care
fully, as there was a sharp curve in
the road beyond.
Suddenly she damned down the
emergency brake, a startled exclama-
ton falling from her lips. Not 20
feet ahead, in the middle of the road
and directly in line with the light of
the lamps, stood a black, motionless
igure-the figure of a woman whose
head was lowered and whose arms
hung Imply at her sides.
The woman in the car bent forward
over the wheel, staring hard. Many
seconds passed. At last the forlorn
object in the roadway lifted her face
and looked vacantly into the glare of
the lamps. Her eyes were wide-open,
her face a CHASTITY white.
God in heaven!" struggled from the
stiffening lips of Sara Wrandall. Her
fingers frightened on the wheel.
She knew. This was the woman!
The long brown ulster; the limp,
fluttering veil? "A woman about your
size and figure" the sheriff had said.
The figure swayed and then moved
a few steps forward. Blinded by the
lights, she bent her head and shielded
her eyes with her hand the better to
glimpse the occupant OF the car.
Are you looking for me?" she cried
out shrilly, at the same time spread
ing her arms as II in surrender. 1t
was almost wall.
Mrs. Wrandall caught her breath.
Her heart began to beat once more.

she cried out, without knowing what

The girl started She had not ex-
pected to hear the voice of a woman.
She staggered to the side of the road.
out of the line Of light.
Il beg your pardon" she cried
1t was like a wall of disappointment
II am sorry to have stopped you"
Come here" commanded the other,
still staring.
The unsteady figure advanced. Halt
ing beside the car, she leaned across
the spare tires and gazed into the
eyes of the driver. Their faces were
not more than foot apart, their eyes
were narrowed in tense scrutiny.
What do you want?' repeated Mrs.
Wrandall, her voice hoarse and trem-
ulous.
