Louies eyes were open. And there
was a look of recognition in them.
Leontine had left the room. Sebas-
tan and Louie looked at each other.
Then Louie spoke.
Il know you, Sebastian Navarro"
he said. "You paid me to forge the
PAPER which Jerry Carson was sup
posed to have given you in return for
that money you never lent him"
Sebastian quivered. as If he were
about to spring at Loule's throat.
He could not know that the stun
ming blow on the head had restored
Louie's memory as it had been before
he received the first blow from the
falling beam at the cabaret fire.
Louis Lamb rose to his feet and
staggered toward him, pushing out
weakly with his hands.
"Lemme go!" he said. looking at
Sebastian sourly, Take your hands
Off me. You got no right to stop me-"
He pushed past him and encountered
Leontine in the doorway. She tried
to stop him, but Louie evaded her and
passed into the hall. Leontine and Sc
bastian, looking at each other. heard
his numbering footsteps pass along the
floor, heard the door open and close.
Louie was gone And still they
looked into each others eyes.
Did you hear what that fellow
said?" Sebastian asked.
Leontine nodded quietly.

And he drew her toward the edge OF
the car.
The basket was ablaze from end to
end Yet Leontine hesltated. 1t was
fearful, standing there In the midst
IF the circling flames and looking down
into those heecy clouds beneath.
Jump" cried the man, and forced
her over the cars edge.
Leontine fell into space As she
did so the other pulled the cord that
opened the valve. The great balloon
shot downward, passing her. Then she
fell swiftly, and the parachute passed
the balloon in turn. The dizzy rush
downward turned Leontine faint. With
all the intensity of which she was
capable, she chung to the parachute
handle. Then the swift descent ceased
as the wind opened the parachute She
was falling earthward softly, 90 a
feather might fall. Above her head
was the black outline of the burning
balloon. And standing In the midst
Of the flames Leontine saw her CON-
panion.
The parachute plunged down. The
sea rushed up to meet It, Leontine felt
the dazing shock Of the Icy water. She
felt the surface close above her head.
Then the parachute bobbed up like
a cork, and, faint and dizzy, the girl
found herself afoat on the waves, the
parachute and cork supports holding
ler buoyantly.
Above her head she saw the nsry
mass that hurtled downward.
AS she watched, horror-stricken, she
