went away because Sara, failing in
her plan to marry her off to Leslie.
decided that it would be fatal to a Ger
tain project OF her own if she re-
manned on the field Of action. Do
make myself ~clear?"
oh. you are away off in your con
illusions, WV"
Time will tell" was here cabalistlc
rejoinder.
Her father appeared on the lawn
below and called up to them.
You are wanted at the telephone,
Brandon. I've just been talking to
Sara"
Did she call you up, father" asked
Vivian, leaning over the rail.
Yes. About nothing In particular,
however"
She turned upon Booth with a mock
ing smile. He felt the color rush to
his face, and was angry with himself.
He went to the telephone. Almost
her first words we're these:
What has Vivian beer telling you
about me, Brandon?"
He actually gasped. Good heavens,
Sara"
He heard her low laugh so she
has been saying things, has she ?" she
asked. Il thought so. I've had 1t
in my bones tonight"
He was at a loss for words. 1t was
positively uncanny. AS he stood there.
trying to think of a trivial remark, her
laugh came to him again over the wire,
followed by a drawing good night"
and then the soughing of the wind
over the open" wire.
The next day he called her up on
the telephone quite early. He knew
her habits. She would be abroad i n
her gardens by eight O'Clock. He re-
membered well that Leslie, in com
menting on her absurdly early hours,
had once said that her early Bird
habit was hereditary: she got It from
Sebastian.
What put 1t into your head, Sara,
that Vivian was saying anything I'm.
pleasant about you last night?"
Magic she replied succinctly.
Rubbish"
Il have a magic tapestry that trans.
ports me, hither and thither, and by
night I always carry Aladdin's lamp
So, you see, | see and hear everything

Very well. I will be sensible. II

me from this time on"
Prepared though he was, he blinket
his eyes and said something she didn'
quite catch.
She went on. Moreover, In addition

Holmes in some respects. ! really d.

laugh.

Virginia." she added explicitly.
Il say, Sara. what does all this
mean? You"
And If you should follow me
there, Vivian's estimate of us will not
be so far out of the way as we'd
like to make It,"
True to her word, she was gone
when he drove w later OF In the
day. Somehow. he experienced a
queer feeling OF relief. Not that he
was oppressed by the rather vivacious
opinions of Vivian and her ilk, but
because something told him that Sara
was wavering in her determination to
withhold the secret from him and ned
for perfectly obvious reasons
He had two commissions among the
rich summe colonists. One, a full
length portrait of young Beardsley in
shooting toys, was nearly finished. The
other was to be a half-length of Mrs.
Ravenscroft, who wanted n Just like
Hetty Castleton's. except for the eyes,
which she admitted would have to be
different. Nothing was said of the
seventeen years difference In their
ages. Vivian had put off posing until
Lent.
The Wrandalls departed for Scot
land, and other friends OF his began
to desert the country for the city. The
fortnight passed and another week
besides. Mrs. Ravenscroft decided to
go to Europe when the picture was
h~alf-finished.
You can finish it when l come back
in December, Mr.. Booth" she said.
IN have several new gowns to choose
from. too"
Il shall be busy all winter. Mrs. Ra-
yenscroft," he said coldly.
How annoying" she said calmly,
and that was the end Of 1t all. She
had made the unpleasant discovery
that it wasn't going to be in the least
like Hetty Castleton's. SO why bother
about it?
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.
will you go out with me tomorrow,
Brandon, for an all-day trip in the
carr" she asked, as they stood to-
gether before the open fireplace on
this late November afternoon. Her
eyes were moody, her voice rather
lifeless.
Certainly" he said, watching her
closely. Was the break about to come?
Il will stop for you at nine" After
a short pause, she looked up and said
Il suppose you would like to know
where | am taking you"
1T doesn't matter, Sara"
Il want you to go with me to Bur
tons inn"
"Burton's inn"
That is the place where my hus
band was killed." she said, quite
steadily.
He started. "Oh! But-do you
think it best, Sara, to open old wounds
by"
Il have thought 1t all out, Brandon

her champion. | suppose you know
that he was your rival at n time"
He mentioned it," said Booth drily.
Il should have been very much dis
appointed in her if she had accepted
him
Indeed"
Il sometimes wonder II Sara spiked
Leslie's guns for him"
Il can tell you something you don't
know. Vivian" said he. Sara was
rather keep about making a match
there"
Vivian's smile was slow but trium-
plant. That is just what l thought
There you are! Doesn't that explain
Sara"
In a measure, yes. But, you see,
it developed that Hetty cared for some
one else, and that put a stop to every
thing"
Am l to take it that you are the
some n else?"
Yes" he said soberly.
Then, may | ask why she went
away so suddenly"
You may ask, but | can't answer"
DO you want my opinion? She

| 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
the horrid picture of another day. She
tried to imagine the scene that had
been enacted there with gentle, low
able Hetty Glynn and her whilom
husband as the principal characters.
The girl had told the whole story OF
hat ugly night. Sara tried to see 1t
as it actually had t~ranspired. o
months this present enterprise had
been in her mind: the desire to see
the place again. to go there with old
impressions which she could leave be-
hind When ready to emerge in q new
frame of mind. 1t was true that she
meant to shake off the shackles of a
horrid dream, to purge herself OF the
last vestige of bitterness, to cleanse
her mind of certain thoughts and mem
cries.
Downstairs Booth waited for her.
He heard the story Of the tragedy from
the i%nnkeeper, who Grossly maintained
that his business had been ruined.
Booth was vaguely impressed, he knew
not why. by Buttons dc %scription Of

A bell rang sharply and Burton
glanced over his shoulder at the indi-
Gator on the wall behind the desk. He
gave a great start and his jaw sagged.

his brow. Turning to a boy, he COM
manded him to answer the bell. The
boy went slowly. and as he went he
removed his hands from his pockets.
He came back an instant later, more
swiftly than he went, with the word
that the lady up there" wanted Mr..
Booth to come upstairs.
She was waiting for him in the open
doorway. A shaft of bright sunlight
from a window at the end of the hall
fell upon her. Her face was colorless.

contrast her as she stood there in the
pitiless light with the vivid creature

She beckoned to him and turned
back into the room. He followed.

try to picture how this place looked
