CHAPTER XIX
AS Marie spoke the final words she
swayed forward and would have fallen
if Hugh had not caught her. At his touch
she reused herself and chung to his arm
with both her hands like frightened
child.
"Ask him to 60. Please ask him to COL"
she begged.
Guy did not move. al don't under
stand" he said. "What does she mean?
Is that true?"
ayes, yes, it's true. Please go!'
wont you EXPLAIN"
what does it matter to you as long as
you're free? Please, please go away!"
She was trembling violently, her breath
came in gasps.
Hugh waved Amarinth to the door.
You'd better go, think, he said.
For moment longer Guy stood irreso-
lutte then he started for the door.
wait! l have something Of yours!'
she cried suddenly.
He stopped and turned back to her.
She drew away from Hugh's supporting
arms, and pulling her gloves off unbut-
toned her coat and let it slip into his hands.
Then she felt within her dress and brought
out ribbon on which were strung the
rings Amarinth had given her the night
before.
With trembling fingers she united the
loops that held it secure about her neck
and drew off the rings and laid them
on the table that stood between them.
Leaning forward she showed them across
to him.
"Take them, please"
She did not look at him, nor he at her.
The eyes of both were on the rings that
lay there between them, the symbols Of
their faith and love, hooking them.
Amarinth did not move to pick them
up. He looked at Hugh. IL want to
speak to her alone" he said.
"No, no! I've nothing to say to you'll"
"You owe me some sort of explana-
toni
"There's nothing to explain. There are
your rings. Please go!'
"Very we'll then, l WILL" Guy said
shortly. He snatched the rings up, and
without another word turned and left the
house.
THE outer door slammed loudly behind
him, and the girl form shook as though
she had been struck. Hugh took her
hands in his and drew her toward chair
near the fire.
"You are cold, your hands are like ice"
he said.

walked and walked. l thought should
never get here. You see"
"Wait-don't talk. Just sit here until
you feel better"
He hurried from the room, and returned
at once with some brandy in glass. She
covghed as she drank it; but presently the
\ effect of the stimulant became apparent

ting out his right arm to touch me as
though he had forgotten that the hand
was gone. Suddenly his expression
changed, his eyes lost focus. 1t frightened
me and l turned to call to the doctor.
Then he spoke. It's getting dark, Alix,'
he said. I must 60. Kiss me, sweet
heart! He lifted his head little, and l.
L" She caught her breath sharply and
stopped.
4Well?" Hugh questioned gently, after
a while.
IL put my arm about his neck and
kissed him. l felt his lips meet mine, then
his head fell back-he was dead!" A sob
broke from her as she finished speaking,
chair she wept uncontrollably.
Poor child, poor child" Hugh re-
peated pityingly.
SHE looked up, her face streaming with
tears. "When l saw that he was dead
l cried out and jumped up. The doctor
looked at him and said, It's all over and
Miss Niklova screamed and ordered me
to go. He's mine now, he's mine! she
said. Go back to your fine home and
your fine friends You're a cruel, wicked
woman! l tried to speak, to reason with
her, to explain. She wouldn't listen, she
pushed me from the room. Go to your
friends and explain to them,' she said.
She was crazed with grief, it was so terri
BILE, so pitiful. In the hall outside the doc
tor asked for my address. He said he
would let me know about the funeral.
l gave him the address, and he went
back into the room. He believed what
she had told him about me, and he
looked at me as if were some loathsome
creature But it didn't seem to matter
what he thought-nothing seemed to
matter.
"The hall was very dimly lighted and
had to grope my way down the steps, then
through other halls and down more stairs
until | was again in the street. 1t was
night. To the east saw the lights along
the river, to the west the tracks of the ele-

sorrow. What had left behind me that
morning seven years ago? That was
what kept asking myself. Perhaps had
parents, sisters and brothers, perhaps-a

"How can l know, Hugh-how can l
know"
"You were nothing but a child your

IL had a husband. How can tell that
somewhere in the world there isn't little

its grave. That is the thought that won't
leave me. My husband was stranger to

"How is Aunt Alicia?"
"All right. She's asleep. She doesn't
know you've been out"
IL was so afraid she would worry about
me. wanted to telephone; but had no
money" She shivered and held her hands
to the warmth of the fire.
Hugh dropped to his knees beside her,
and taking one hand in his began chatting
it vigorously. She leaned back with
tremulous sigh, as though his warm, strong
touch soothed her.
"When left the house this afternoon

"Niklova?"
"She's Russian girl who plays the

me; she was on her way here for me, she
said. Some one was dying and wanted to

tell her that she must be mistaken; but she

Well, we rode and rode, and when at last
we got off we walked east. 1t was getting
dark, and l could see the lights of the
boats on the river. We went into house
and upstairs-up and up and up. Then
we went into ROOM" She broke off shud-
dering and covered her face with her
hands.
OOH, that room Hugh! 1t was so bare
and cold and desolate! And he was
lying there on bed-the man had come

"Did you know him?" he asked in a
strained voice.
She shook her head. 4He was like a
stranger to me-a man had never seen
before. But-he knew me-
"What did he say?'
"He didn't speak: just looked at me
long time. didn't move. There was
such queer look in his eyes that couldn't
stir. 1t was as if every moment he would
speak. Suddenly he raised up in the bed
and stretched out his arm toward me

Hugh gave sharp exclamation.

stretched his arm out toward you, you
said."
ayes. I saw that he was reaching for
me, and stepped little nearer, near
enough for him to touch me. But he
pulled back his arm and lay down again.
I'm dreaming he said, I'm dreaming!
but he didn't take his eyes from my face.
Then suddenly he sat up again and put
out the other arm, and when his hand
touched my hand he gave sort of gasp
ing scream and fell back unconscious.
The doctor hurried to him, and Miss Mix
Iowa cried out to me, He's dead, he's
dead-you've killed him!' But the doc
tor said he was not dead, but had only
tainted from the shock of finding that l
was real and not dream. Who is hep l
asked, and then-Miss Niklova told me.
"Told you he was your husband?"
Marie inclined her head and sat silently
gazing down at her hands tightly clasped
in her lap.
"What else did she tell your"
"Oh, I hardly know-she was so ex-
cited, so miserable. What cruel thing
life is, Hugh! She loved him.
what was his name? Tell me what
she said to you,' Hugh urged.
BRIEFLY she pieced together the facts
she had learned from Irma Niklova,-
of Andrus' life there in the tenement; of
his struggle to replace the right hand, lost
in an accident, with the left, and of his
girl had recognized as hers; of the gown
so like the one she had danced in; of what
Andrus had said of her, that she had been
dancer and his wife, and that she was
dead. He had taken the picture away that
afternoon and sold it to get money be-
cause he was ill and was going to the hos
pital; but when he came back to leave the
money for her to take care of he had fallen
unconscious and she had put him to bed.
Then the doctor had come and told her
that it was question of hours. And the
sick man had called for Alix, always for
Alix, and in his delirium he had talked of
the portrait, Alix's portrait. 1t was that
which had given the Russian girl her clue,
and she had determined to bring to him
the woman he loved.
"She said cruel things to me- Marie
went on. "Of course she couldn't under
