Before going down the street toward

taxi driver and entered a public tele-
phone booth.
In few minutes he had Coleman on
the wire.
YES. the man replied. 'sir God

Patton left asmessage. that the K. c.

apartments. When Coleman told the
bowed and spirit broken Brooke,
Paton's request a shudder quivered
through his giant frame 1t seemed
that a presentment had come to him.
He sat, motionless until Coleman adj
dressed him again, asking If he should
bring his coat and hat and have the
machine at the hotel entrance.
Brooke assented and rose. His bag
gard face and emanciated body were
in horrifying contrast to the bronZed
and athletic appearing man who only
few days ago had been so happy at
the prospect of long delayed honey
moon with his little Di.

"Sir Godfrey Brooke will be here in

Crawley whose face went white before

guilty conscience told him he was ex.

"r need not tell you what 1 know"
| continued Patton. You know what has
| happened and you must tell Brooke
with your own lips"
| Tell him from my own lips that his
wife loved me?'
The words came from his throat like
the last gasps Of dying man. He was
limp, almost faint

realized. Now he knew why Crawley
had changed the picture

painting"
Il thought to save him." pleaded
Crawley in his own defense.
But, you only made matters worse. :
Yes, but how was I to know that
f, the woman would kill herself"
| Crawley was talking brokenly now,
not guarding his words because he felt
that the shrewd little Patton knew
everything.
What became of the body, where is
! it, he asked.
! Brooke knows"
you lie, Mr.. Crawley," snapped
Patton. DO you think Sir Godfrey
would affect all this grief if he knew
No he would be open and face the
world"
He does" screamed Crawley
Didn't he take her body there and
stand by while placed it in the straw
Didn't we set fire to the barn and
watch it burn, watch it cremate his
wife. Bah. yes he does know
You are crazy cried Patton alarm

ance

The truth of the old saying that
Fires go in three's in Augusta" was
again demonstrated on Friday when,
following close on the heels of the big
fire in Block 55 Thursday night, two
other fires occurred. The first call was
from Box 20, corner of Washington
and Jefferson streets, and sounded at
1904, Hose l and 2 and the Hook and
Ladder responding.
A fast run was made, and the fire
was found to be in the house at 80
Jefferson street, owned by Joseph
Cloutier and occupied by John Boron
and family. The fire started from an
overheated stove, and was slight, being
put out by the family with water, be-
fore the arrival of the firemen. The
damage in this case was very slight,
and the all-out sounded at 1925.
The horses had hardly been sent to
their stables when an alarm came in
from Box Is, the fire being in the house
at 60 Arsenal street, owned by Mrs.
Margaret ]. Trotter, and occupied by
Mrs. Trotter, her daughter, Miss Car
rie Trotter, and the family of George
Martin, who lived in the south apart
ment, in which the fire started, pre-
sumably around the chimney. Hose 1
and 2 and the Hook and Ladder re-
sponded promptly to this alarm, which
came in at LOS P. NJ. and when they
arrived they found that the fire had
spread rapidly. lively blaze going on
inside the roof. Chief Hunt directed
the work and two streams were used
