Once More at eurton's Inn.

Again Sara Wrandall found herself
In that ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS room at
Burton's inn. On that grim night In
March she had entered without fear
or trembling because she knew what
was there. Now she quaked with
mighty chill of terror, for she knew
not what was there in the quiet, now
sequestered room. Burton had told
them on their arrival after a long
drive across country that patrons of
the inn invariably asked which room
Il was that had been the scene OF
the tragedy, and, on finding out, re-

"I1l have several new gowns to choose
from, too"
II shall be busy all winter. Mrs. Ra-
venscroft," he said coldly.
How annoying" she said calmly,
and that was the end OF IL all. She
had made the unpleasant discovery
that 1t wasn't going to be in the least
like Hetty Castleton's, 80 why bother
about II?
Booth waited until Sara came out
to superintend the closing of her house
for the winter. He called at South
look on the day OF her arrival. He
was struck at once by the curious
change In her appearance and manner.
There was something bleak and desc
late in the wildly brilliant face: the
tired, wistful, harassed look OF one
who has begun to quail and yet fights
on.

gether before the open fireplace on
this late November afternoon. Her
eyes were moody. her voice rather
lifeless.

closely. Was the break about to come =?

transform IL into a sort of store and
baggage room.
Sara stood in the middle of the
murky room, for the shutters had long
been closed TO the light OF day, and

She did not have 10 be told what bed
IL was. The mattress was there too,
rolled up and tied with thick garden
rope. She knew there we're dull, ugly
blood stains upon II. Why the thrifty
Burton had persevered Ia keeping
this useless article OF furniture, she
could only surmise. Perhaps II was
held as an inducement to the morbidly
curious who always seek out the grue-
some and gloat even as they shudder.
For a long time she stood immov-
able Just inside the door, recalling
tho horrid picture OF another day. She
tried to imagine the scene that had

too late. A confession would have

She uttered a short, mocking laugh.

Her manner changed abruptly. She
turned TO him. intense and serious.
