every morning in the hour that spent at
breakfast so | saw little of her.
HAD been in the narrow house about
three weeks, working furiously at the
novelette, every morning from nine o'clock
to one. But an electric light bulb in my
front room had burned out, and about
eleven o'clock one morning l ran down.
stairs in my slippers to tell the landlady
about it.
The door to Mrs. Durante's sitting
room on the ground floor stood open.
When | reached the foot of the stairs, I
saw three people in there, drawn close to-
gether, in attitudes of intimate, absorbed
conversation.
Mrs. Durante, in fact, was weeping. A
fat old man in the garb of priest sat be-
side her on the little sofa. Costello had
drawn his chair so close to them, his
knees almost touched them. He was bend
ing forward, talking into their faces. low
and rapidly. Costello's back was to me;
but thepriest saw me at once, arose hastily,
stepped over and closed the door. There
was nothing for me to do but retreat up
stairs, with disagreeable feeling of hav-
ing intruded.
Half an hour later Costello came up,
very grave, with line down his fore
head. The Durantes had daughter.
can't remember whether he had ever
mentioned her before that morning. but if
he had it was in such way as left no i'm
preston on my mind. She was very un-
happily married, it seemed. Some bad
news about her had come that morning;
Mrs. Durante had sent for him and the
priest; hence the conference upon which
l had stumbled.
- This rather surprised me-the hint of
a tragedy in the dull little house And
Costello was very grave about it. very
thoughtful. frowning at the floor. speak
ing with restrained terseness, in contrast
with his usual genial eXpansiveness. Yet
the tragedy of an unhappy marriage was
itself commonplace enough.
THE next scene unfolded four or five
days later. had happened to go into
Costello's stting-room on the second
floor. True, | had been there several
times before. and had noticed on his
bureau a red morocco photograph case
containing three portraits The one on
the left was that of child. and the one
on the right showed girl just in her
teens, while the middle one was of girl
near womanhood. All three faces were
attractive-of the same large-eyed.
straight-nosed, oval-faced type. | stepped
closer, to look at them.
Costello stepped up also, regarding the
photographs with me.
"AIy dove" he said gravely. twisting
his mustache.
He seemed to mean that all three were
the same person. and l looked around at
him inquiringly.
"She was just six then" he explained
soberly, nodding to the photograph on the
left. There she was twelve, and there
sixteen" He regarded the photographs
a moment longer. and repeated, My
dove: then went over and sat down,
twisting his mustache.
"Yes. I've known her since she was so
high. he observed. holding his hand the
height of his knee. Il fairly brought her
up. She is the daughter spoke to you
about"
recalled that he had mentioned an
unhappy marriage.

TT was one of those incidental tucked
in houses which one finds here and
there in New York-built to utilize
Il a leftover plot of ground. Its width
could hardly have been more than
dozen feet and its depth perhaps thirty
feet. On the ground floor, which was
level with the street, there was sitting
room in front, then cubby of dining
room, and in the rear toy kitchen. On
each of the three floors above that. there
was a sitting-room in front and bed
room in the rear. and between them a
bathroom and closet, tlanked by a tiny
hall and a stairway so narrow that two
grown persons could not have passed
without squeezing.
The neighborhood not far from Wash
ington Square-just missed being frowsy.
The next street to the west was frankly
tenement district But my mail that
winter had consisted mostly of rejected
manuscripts. told my friends | was
seeking new lodging because the hotel
was too noisy: in fact, | was leaving the
hotel because | could no longer afford it.
Mrs. Durante. the dark, plump landlady
of the narrow house, asked only forty
dollars a month for the top floor, so
took it.
If quiet had been my object couldn't
possibly have done better All day long
the little house was still as a tomb. Once
in while might catch the landlady's
light football on the stairs, or the OPEN
ing of door, There was no servant,
Mrs. Durante herself doing the house
work. Such was the stiffness that even
slight noise struck sharply on the
nerves. Apparently no one ever came
there during the day. After dinner Cos
tello came in.
He lodged on the second floor. by what
struck me as an odd arrangement
the landlady herself sleeping on the third
floor. | can not recall now how or when
| first became distinctly aware of him,
but he must have made the advances,
for that would be in his character rather
than in mine.
He was around fifty, with broad bald
