LIE awoke with headache and a feeling
- that it was the day on which he was to
be hanged. But slowly he recovered a better
appreciation of the situation. To be sure
he was faced with the dreadful ultimatum,
the time of which expired that evening,
After that the Iaw-the- He hastily re-
vived his muddled memories of Rordan's
talk Riordan had asked him to go to High
gate, and frankly ask to have the boot box
opened. These were vague instructions as
to the end to be accomplished; but they
were definite so far as they went. He had
great faith in Riordan, if not in Rordan's
finances and, if nothing else, desperation
made him cling to his friends counsel.
At eight of the clock, when the dusk was
falling, he knocked and rang at the Highgate
house. Molyneux was abnormally polite.

mindedly to two remarks by Molyneux that
he made the discovery he was abjectly de-
string.
Eyes, beauti :u1 weather" he said; though
it had rained day-and there cleaned the
boot box! He Knew it of old. 1t was an old
oaken affair ating from the seventeenth
century, and IS used by Molyneux to hold
his house slipp>rs and shoes. He had often
envied Molyneux this possession. Some
thing stiffened and perked up within him.

1t must be confessed that Molyneux was

farther.

dropped it, passed to a cupboard, opened it :

then by series of diplomatic questions drew
him on. The whole story gushed forth at
last into sympathetic ears, which were none
the less sympathetic because of the humor-
our appreciation that dubbed up in Ror-
dams mind. And-oh the relief of this dis
charge of pent-up misery to Wilson Bos-
sance!
Riordan helped himself to another whisky
and soda. well, you have been and gone
and done it!' he said. 3And 1 suppose the
practical Anglo-Saxon must now rely upon
the dreamy Celt. Where's the Winkin-
what's his name?'
Riordan examined the volume casually,
and was then formally introduced to the
Sheffield candlesticks. He presented an in
scrutable, smiling face to his friend.
3Well, the dreamy Celt takes hand not
for the first time. Just you get to bed and
don't worry, and leave me alone and give
me the latchkey-and, by the way, yes,
leave out bit of supper and some mo e
whisky. This is beastly brand of yours.
Why don't you keep Irish?'
With many misgivings and in great per-
turbation BoSsance went to bed; but not to
sleep. Somehow in an emergency where
decision and resolution were called for he
put his faith in Riordan, whose general
method of life he could not approve. That
a man should be so reckless in his talk, that
a man should drink so much whisky, keep
such extraordinary hours, and laugh so
much,-these things were 1ncomprehenslble
to one of so orderly and restricted a life as
Bossance. Yet here he was relying, certainly
with inward tremors on this bohemian, and
trusting him as a child trusts someone of
adult growth in whom he has reason for con-
fdence As matter of fact he did at last
get to somewhere after midnight

He was gone almost before the stupefed
and somnolent Bossance could catch his
breath and protest; and when he was gone
there was nothing to do but to gasp and
wonder and try to make connected sense of
the disjointed sentences and facts that had
dropped from his late visitor He did, how
