came out he said

II was ten O'Clock, not later, when

was alone-absolutely alone as he had
never been since that night OF long
ago. when with the inner fence COM

allow himself to dwell for one minute

Taking down his hat from the rack,
he turned and went out again, this
time carefully locking the door behind

Noiselessly the Judge recoiled and

and. sliding quickly out, he cast a
hasty glance up and down the lane,
and, seeing nothing more alarming
than the back of second officer loung-
ing at the corner. pulled the gate
quietly to and locked 1t.
He was well down the road toward
the ravine before the officer turned.
The time has now come for giving
you clearer idea of this especial
