CHAPTER VII.
The Trail Of the Whit Mare.

The expression upon Tom Kings
bury's face as he reread that strange
note fully marked his bewilderment
Certainly. from what he had
learned from Trench the evonis Of
the past few days were known 10 very
few. The bank itself didn't realize
that it had been Il party to a theft.
For the life of him he could not see
who had any information TO warrant
the sending If such a message.
He studied the note again. and then,
going down to the desk, he inquired
how 1t had come TO his room.
The information was simple but I'm.
satisfactory. 4 boy, the clerk didn't
know who he was, had brought it,
Just few minutes before Kingsbury's
return and asked that II be left in
the lawyers room.
Kingsbury went back to his room
and his puzzle. He spent some time
over it, took it to bed with him, and
awOke in the morning realizing mat
he had allowed it to interfere with
his sleep a thing he seldom permit
ted.
The truth was ne was beginning 10
grow worried The thought OF foul
play came to his mind.
He hurried through breakfast and
walked out onto the street There he
paused. Tor he didn't for the life OF
him know which way to turn.
