CHAPTER XII
In Which 4ndrpu Is Found

DUZZI.ED at not finding Sajpona, uncer-
i tain how to take up the promise he had
given in regard to her, an altogether uneN-
pected turn Of events awaited Raoul at
Leightons hotel the next morning. Andrew
Parmelee had been found. In the custody
of two delighted police officers the missing
schoolmaster, bewldered, quite speechless
from his nocturnal experience, had made MS
appearance scarcely an hour before Raouls
arrival. when. thanks to Miranda's per-
sistent prodding. backed by the calm ques-
tioning of Leighton and Una's sympathetic
ministrations, he found his tongue, the ac-
count Andrew gave of mis- adventure was so
wildly improbable that his friends were IN
cined to believe he had been the victim or
some temporary mental delusion. But thls
did not answer the threefold question. What
had brought on his delusion, how had he
escaped the vigilant Miranda. and how had
he fallen into the hands of the police?
The two officers gave a simple statement
of what. so far as they knew had happened
Late the night before. they said. Andrew
had wandered into the alCaldes office in a
little pueblo few miles this side of Guata-

Andrew had evidently been something of a
puzzle to the simple-minded officials of the
pueblo Out of his incoherent tumble Of
words. however the name of a hotel in Be-
gotta had been seized upon. A telephone
message was sent to the municipal police,
and the two officers who now had him in
charge were detailed to conduct him in
safety to his friends. Beyond this the clear
ing up of the mystery of his temporary dis
appearance-if mystery it was-rested with
Andrew himself. But he for a time, was
unable to satisfy the curiosity of his ques-
TONERS
II don't understand it myself" he said
hopelessly, addressing himself in the main,
to Leighton. whose calm demeanor was less
confusing than the badgering of the excitable
doctor. "All | know is that when Doctor
Miranda went off to make some explorations
on his own account | felt a little nervous at
finding myself alone in such a dismal place.
Not frightened, you know but just nervous. -
