the name American House had been
given in 1885. In the years which

ed the edge Of the shrubbery he saw
Longstreth's door open, flashing a
broad bar of light in the darkness.
Lawson crossed the threshold, the
door closed, and all was dark again
outside. Not a ray of light escaped
from the window. Duane tiptoed to
the door and listened, but could hear
only a murmer of voices. Besides,
that position was too risky. He went
round the corner Of the house.
This side of the big adobe house
