sible delight when she found
herself once more in San Fran
- cisco, the place where last she
had seen her sweetheart. She i'm
agined him rowing the city, using every
means in his power to find her She
knew he had led the assault upon
that house, and that not even the
secret exit made by the occupants
could divert him from his purpose OF
finding her. But she had q far better
chance than he with Loubequc. She
only caught herself hoping that the
International spy would return to his
home.
Not for the cunning brain Of such a
one as the spy to go back to place
from which he had been driven and
which he had every reason to believe
would be under surveillance. Instead
Of doing this he promptly took
motor to the st. Francis, relying upon
the very audacity Of his move to pro-
tect him.
Lucille followed him quietly, almost
meekly. They had but little to say
to each other. Both knew the others
thoughts too we'll to waste time in
words; both knew the others, relent-
lessness of purpose. And, more than
anything and everything else. both
knew that the fight between them
must be settled very shortly, that any
move must be made quickly.
Lucille slipped out Of the hotel the
second day, undecided as to what to do
and caring little to plan or plot. For
always there was to be reckoned with
Thompson, who had turned against
his former master. Thompson was
the man upon whom she convinced
herself with feminine Intuition she
must depend. Thompson would lay
open way. And the hate Of Thomp-
son would turn itself against the hate
OF LoubcQue and then her own great
love would have its innings.
And In this mood, for the first time
since leaving Manila SO abruptly in
the aeroplane of Harley, her thought
turned from the sweetheart she felt
was in the city to the thought of meet
ing him.
She stopped short, the song upon
her lips frozen there as she looked
down at herself. For the first time
