Indeed, his words were justified. Mr..
James Crlchton Langdon was corpselike
in pallor, and Mason, alias Hunter though
his tongue was stilled, bore every indica-

He watched them through a mirror. He
saw Grenier exert himself 20 put his COM

went out he followed and ascertained
from the commissionaire at the door that
they had gone toward shaftesbury av-

By walking rapidly he sighted them
again, and saw them turn into a door

Grenier knew that he was a marked man
in the eyes Of the police. He knew that
the particular saloon bar he affected
was the rendezvous not only OF others
like himself. but of the smartest detec-

Yet this was his favorite hunting ground
Where the carcass is there are the
