She gasped.

She rallied swiftly from the
shock of the proposal.

she said sternly.

She remained silent.

Rosalind sat very straight on
the nail-keg.
Eyes, you did. You were so all
fired. scornful of everybody and
everything-particularly me. You
rubbed 1t in. You just carved me
into slivers every time you spoke
and l guess you thought l
wasn't even good enough to fur

"All the time you were carving
me and clouting me, | was strong
for YOU. That's Gospel. You bully
ragged me into loving you."
"What?"
Perhaps that doesn't sound
quite right | don't mean that
you tried to. But | mean that ev-
cry time you clouted me l loved
you some more.
'Wait-please wait! Well cut

way: | love you, and some day
I'm going to marry you. I'll wait
but | won't quit"
He paused and watched her for
some sign, but she was mute, mo-
tionless. Suddenly his voice
lchanged.
"Oh, If you'd only let yourself
go, Rosalind! II you'd only throw
off the mask! You nearly did,
back in the launch, when 1t was
all touch and go for a few min
utes."
There was a moment of silence.
Then kellogg spoke with his old
briskness.

the skiff loose. You want to get
over to Witherbee's as soon as
possible, | guess. Your gown isn't
dry wet"
Rosalind nodded. She watched
him as he fumbled with the pad
lock. She had the sensation that
something extraordinary was hap
lpening to her-a sort of transmit
grafton from one existence to an
other.
Her mind was not working very
clearly; it CROPPED. Through it all
ran a faint and vague whisper of
alarm. She wondered If she was
losing her sure and steady grip on
Rosalind Chalmers. 1t was SO alb
lsurd, too; so unthinkable-so-

This time she did not hear his
Question at all.
The paddock came loose in his
hand, and he unclaimed the skiff.

Rosalind drew back a step from

She was about to embark when

shoulders and stared into her
face.
What did you mean by that?"
he demanded, shaking her gently.

For answer, Mr.. Davidson point

in the chair.
The nephew ohuckled as he
greeted the captive with a hand

his uncle. Hes friend OF

briefly.

For the first time he appeared

in dumb amazement.

The Englishman shrugged.

turning again to his nephew.
"I'm sorry I did that; 1t was
just an impulse. I only wanted
to bother him some."
Uncle Henry made an exasper-

CONTINUED From Our Last Issue)
Rosallnd stopped breathing and
waited. Mr.. Davidson held up a
warning finger. The young man
In the chair looked expectant.
The first footstep was followed
by others. There was nothing
stealthy about them; they were
frank. careless and unconcerned.
Somebody was walking along the
upper hall!
An instant later and the foot
scending leisurely. Rosalind was
rigid as bronze. She alone knew
what the footsteps pOrtended.
A young man In white flannels
walked into the library.
He was slender and tall and inn
maculate. Under his coat he wore
q delicately striped silk shirt. His
collar and scarf were beyond
criticism. His canvas shoes we're
spotless.
A casual observer would have
noted but one unusual fact; the
upper half of his face was deeply
tanned, while his cheeks. his lip
and his chin were pallid. He was
cleanly shaved.
Hello, folks" he grinned.
Mr.. Davidson made the spring
for which he had been poised.
BILLY! You young scoundrel! "
In the same instant he envelop-
ed the intruder with bearlike
embrace.
The young man gazed placidly
over Mr.. Davidson's head and
straight into the eyes of Rosalind
Chalmers.

Mr.. Davidson stepped back a
pace and surveyed his nephew.
'But-when did you get back?'
he cried.

But how-what-wher
Mr.. Davidson paused to recover
his breath. The glance of the ex-
boatman wandered to other mem
bers Of the party.
Hello, Polly!" he said.

murdered" faltered Polly, finding
speech.

ringing.

at his ear. "Yes. it's Mr.. David

He replaced the instrument on
the table.

"They wanted to apologize for
bothering Morton the other day,
They've got their man."
"Who?"
Fellow that's been smuggling
diamonds. Got him with the goods
only an hour ago. A chap named
Schmidt"
Rosalind and Billy exchanged
swift looks.
why, that's the man they
thought was a spy!" cried Polly.
well, he wasn't. He was just a
plain smuggler."
But, Billy, he used to hire your
boat"
The ex-boatman made a weary
motion with his hands.

he said. HE told me he was a
grain broker. A right decent sort

to be anything more to find out.
Where's Rosalind?"
Rosalind had disappeared.

Of the New England intercollegiate
track meet being held next May with
Bates had never come before the Colby
Athletic Council in any way. hence
the published report that Colby was

Athletic Council handles all such mat
tiers and any report from outside can
not fairly be said to represent the col
