she said to the Argentine.
John Walcott had continued to rep
resent to his daughter that his finances
were in a critical state. He had said
nothing of Sebastian's loan, which had
actually so far improved his position
that he saw prospects Of repaying IL
and resuming his old status. To save
her father Leontine had consented.
Her consent was coupled with the
restriction that the marriage was to
be one in name only, until Sebastian
had won her love. That she knew,
would never happen. But Sebastian,

once he had her as his wife, the path
to happiness would be smooth one.
They were married at the American
consulate in Porto Delgado, and sailed
for New York, where Sebastian was

They secured a splendid apartment on
Riverside drive, and Leontine found

Then came what she had long dread

Leontine rose from her place among

"He is not guilty He Is not guilty J"
she cried, in tones that rang through
the packed court.
There was sympathetic stir among
those who were present Although the

public sentiment.

the Judge who had pronounced the SEN
tence.
But the command was supertuOus.
Leontine reeled and fell unconscious
into her fathers arms.
Jerry's first thought when he heard
the verdict was of pity for Leontine,
His second was that somehow he
would escape to her.
She went to see him the following
day before he was removed to the
penal institution.
"Jerry-Jerry, darling, I shall de
vote my life to setting you free" she
said. "You were not spared in the
wreck to be lost to me in this way"
He urged her to forget him, to be
happy with another, but he knew that
the words signlfied nothing to either
of them. Their lips met through the
lattice. Then she was gone, and Jerry
looked into the blackness of a death

A few weeks after the trial, when
Jerry had already been removed to
the up-country prison, John Walcott
approached his daughter again upon
the subject of Sebastian.

"If you become his wife, he will ad.

Leontine consented. Before the
month was out Sebastian had again
asked her to be his wife. He had
been very patient, very gentle with
her for long time past. Leontine
felt trapped and helpless. She prom
Used him his answer soon.
"As we'll rot there as here!"
The speaker, an old convict who haC
served the greater part Of his life in

Orders had come that all life pris

ance as he entered the apartment
that evening. He seemed different
man. Sebastian had always appeared
a gentleman at least In externals. Now
he came in violently, his hat on the
back of his head, his 1teps uncertain.
To her horror, Leontine saw that he
had been drinking.
"Leontine, there's got to be an end
of this" he said thickly.
She rose and stood before him In
dumb terror, staring into his flushed
face.
1--WE married you, I've given you
everything you want, and I've tried to
make you happy. What's your game?
What are you holding out for, eh?"
Sebastian, you-you know your
promise" faltered the girl.
He caught her flercely by the wrist
and thrust his face into hers. The
smell of brandy on his breath nauseat-
ed her.
"A ruse, my dear" he mumbled.
"See here, LeOntine, you might as well
give in. You know you haven't any
legal rights in the matter. That's
enough, isn't it? If you know how l
love you, Leontine-"
A maudlin fit overcame him. He
burst into tears, while the girl looked
at him in ever-increasing disgust.
81 love you, Leontine," he babbled.
"What have l done to deserve this
treatment2 I'll be your slave and do
anything you ask me if only you'll try
to love me a little. Promise me you'll
try, Leontine."
He grasped her in his arms and
pressed his kisses upon her lips and
throat and brow. Leontine, writing
helplessly in his clutch, felt herself
impOtent.
Sebastian, dragging her across the
room suddenly released her. An in
articulate cry broke from his lips.
Leontine opened her eyes, Keeling as
she strove to keep her foothold. She
saw upon Sebastian's face stupefac-
ton, and fear, frantic fear.
He was pointing across the room
and muttering. His gestures were
| those of a mailman.
Leontine's gaze followed his. In q
far corner, at the height of the head of
a man, she saw two burning eyes, and,
close beneath them, two white hands,
one of which clutched dagger.
That was all. There was no body,
nothing but the two eyes and the
white hands that clutched the steel.
But the Thing was alive. The eyes
glowed with hatred that made them
orbs of fire. Leontine saw one Of the
hands raise the dagger and move to-
ward the Argentine.
Sebastian saw that too. His first
shock of terror had sent him stagger-
ing back against the wall, numbed,
dazed and palsied. Now he screamed
in mortal fear turned, and dashed
from the room. Leontine heard him
running down the hall. The hall door
opened and slammed. Sebastian was
gone.
