suspended animation which confronted
them from the judges chair, shrank
tumultuously back as little Miss
Weeks advanced upon them, holding
out her meager arms in late defense OF
the secret to save which she had just
seen man die.
Let US do as he wished" she
prayed. Il feel myself much to blame.
What right had we to come in hereT"
No one in authority was present;
no one representing the law, not even
a doctor; only haphazard persons from
the street and few neighbors who
had not been on social terms with the
judge for years and never expected
to be so again. His secretI-always
source of wonder to every inhabitant
of Shelby, but lifted now into matter
OF vital Importance by the events of
the day and the tragic death of the
negro! Were they to miss it's solution,
when only door lay between it and
them-a door which they might not
even have to unlock? Miss Weeks
was about to utter an impassioned ap-
peal to their honor, when the current
of her and their thoughts was changed
by sudden sense OF some strange
new influence at work in the room, and
turning, they beheld the judge Upon
his feet, his mind awakened, but his
eyes still fixed-an awesome figure;
some thought more awesome than be-
fore.
Death was present with them-he
saw it not. Strangers were making
havoc with his solitude-he was as
oblivious of their presence as he had
been unconscious of it before. His
faculties and all his attention were
absorbed by the thought which had
filed his brain when the cogs of that
subtle mechanism had slipped and his
faculties paused inert
Where is the woman?" he cried.
It was a cry of fear; not of mastery.

CHAPTER II.
The Yelled Woman.


The intensity of the question the
compelling, self-forgetful passion of
the man. had startling effect upon
the crowd of people huddled before
him. With one accord, and without
stopping to pick their way, they made
for the open doorway, knocking the
smaller pieces of furniture about and
creating havoc generally Some fed
the house; others stopped to peer in
again from behind the folds of the
curtain which had been only partially
torn from its fastenings. Miss Weeks
was the only one to stand her ground.
When the room was quite cleared
and the noise abated lit was a fright
full experience to see how little the
judge had been affected by all this
hubbub of combined movement and
sound) she stepped within the line of
his vision and lifted her feeble and
Intellectual hand in an effort to attract
his attention to herself.
But he did not notice her. any more
than he had noticed the others. Still
looking in the one direction, he cried
aloud in troubled tones:
she stood there, the woman stood
there and l saw her! Where is she
now"
She is no longer in the house, :"
came in gentle reply from the only one
in or out of the room courageous
enough to speak. She went out when
she saw us coming. We knew that she
had no right to be here. That is why
we intruded ourselves, sir. We did
not like the looks of her, and so fol-
lowed her in to prevent mischief"

Then as his mind regained its full
poise, And how, even if you had the
temerity to venture an entrance here,
did you manage to pass my gates :?
They are never open. Bella sees to

As she watched she saw his eyes,
fixed up to now upon her face, leave it
and pass furtively and with many hest

Grasping the table at his side TO
steady his failing limbs. he pulled him
self along by its curving edge till he
came almost abreast of the helpless
figure which for so many years had
been the embodiment of faithful and
unwearied service.
Then and then only did the truth of
his great misfortune burst upon his
bewildered soul; and with a cry which
tore the ears of all hearers and was
never forgotten by anyone there, he
flung himself down beside the dead
negro, and. turning him hastily over,
gazed in his face.
And where was l, when all this

Constantinople was named after the
emperor Of Rome. Constantine the
Great, and founded in A. D. 1928 on the
site; Of the old Greek town Of Byzan-
tium. It was also called New Rome.
and was the eastern capital of the Ro.
man empire for ~ centuries. Greece
was part of the Roman empire OF the
East. and later the empire was often
called the Greek empire. The Greek
church preserves its name to this day.
In 1853 Constantinople was taken by
the Turks, and since then has been the
capital of the Ottoman empire. The
great church Of Saint Sophia was to
Constantinople and the Greek church
what st. Peters was to Rome. It has
been, since the Turkish conquest, a
Mussulman mosque.
