SIXTH EPISODE
THE SPOTTED WARNING

lEnoch Golden had never formed the
habit OF taking others into his conf.
dence. And when events came into
his life which seemed TO leave him
more and more dependent on his I'm.
mediate associates he betrayed an DC.
casional tendency to focus his neb.

ton on the exasperatingly imperturb-
able figure OF David Manley.

woman was sent from my home, and

Marley, looking down at the note
still held In his hand, thought or the
troubled and tear-stained face OF the
girl who had so recently chung to his
arm and asked him to plead her cause
And the memory OF Margery Golden

surmised, was new figure in the
household retinue.

tary's sharp command
Very good, sir" answered the new
footmaH, scarcely raising his eyes.
"H'hl" Golden scoffed, looking up
from the letter which he had just
opened "Slnce you're so ready to ask
favors, here's another friend to ask
them for. Here's the captain OF the
circle you're so ready to champion!
But instead of asking favors you see,
he demands theml"
He tossed the folded sheet angrily

warning that every wire leading into
the Golden house must be cut as soon
as possible.
The new footman, in obedience TO
these orders, quietly traced out the

house TO determine the reason for this
misadventure. that Wrench realized
his chance had come. Slipping into
the deserted library on the pretext OF
adjusting the rugs, he stopped before
