WHAT MADGE AND DICKY SAW
IN THE WOODS NEAR THE
COSGROVE FARMHOUSE.
WHAT y

When Dicky told me that for fif-
teen years the fate OF Robert Saw
arin had been unknown, I felt that
at last I held in my hands the
threads Of the mystery Of the Cos
grove farmhouse in the Catskills
which had so puzzled me.
After our first supper at the farm q
house the evening before, we had
been shown a collection Of pictures
in the farmhouse parlor from the
brush OF Mrs Cosgrove's brother,
Robert Savarin.
Dicky had recognized the artists
work at once and had pronounced
the collection 20 be worth at least
$4,000.
The hysterical JOY OF Mrs. Cos
grove at the announcement, her
ejaculation cleverly stopped by her
husband. what this Will mean 10
Robert" the midnight excursion OF
Mr. and Mrs. Cosgrove and one OF
their sons. and the anxiety OF the
woman 20 keep secret the differ
ence between her twin sons-all
these things pointed in my mind, TO
