you don't know what to believe

Don't talk that way Such a
crime would never have entered
your head under any conditions.
Only, Bobby, il ought never to have
happened. You ought never to
have been in this position. Why
have you been friendly with people
like-like that Spaniard? What can
he want, forcing himself here? At
any rate, you'll never lead that sort
OF life again."
Her fingers sought his. He
clasped them firmly.

Katherine. 1t was mad-silly. You

He broke off, glancing at the
door through which Graham had
disappeared.

She released his hand, signing.

now. You're i'll, Bobby Go in.
Rest for awhile. When you've had

He shook his head. He walked
slowly with her TO the house.
AS he climbed the stairs he heard
Paroles telephoning. He couldn't
understand the mans insistence on
remaining where clearly he was an
intruder.
He entered his bedroom which
he had occupied only once or twice
during the last few months. The
place seemed unfamiliar. He ne
bathed and dressed his sense OF
strangeness grew, and he understood
why. The last time he had been
here he had stood in no personal
danger. There had been no black
parenrhesis in his life during re
stretch OF which he might have
committed an unspeakable crime.
For ne couldn't believe as firmly
as Katherine did. Since he couldn't

That's kind OF you-more than
I deserve. for 1 have resented YOU

Graham, il was clear, didn't guess
he referred TO his friendship for
Katherine, for he answered
quickly:
Il must have seemed a nuisance,
but 1 was only trying to get you
back on the straight path where
you've always belonged. 1 can't
believe you did this thing, even un-
consciously, until I'm shown proof
without a single flaw. Until the
autopsy the only thing we have TO
work on is that party last night
I've telephoned to New York and
put a trustworthy man on the heels
of Maria and the stranger. Mean

velopments here"
Please" Bobby agreed stay

takes some definite action"
He picked at the fringe Of the

and at the same time send me 70

how absurd 1t is that Carlos, Maria,
or anyone else should have had a
hand in it? There was nothing for

with them Italians if the American

80 you see, Abe, it's good thing
! for them newspaper men TO see what
kind OF people the Italians is in
their own country" Morris con-
tinued, because if this here League
/ OF Nations idea is going TO be put
over by Mr.. Wilson, Americans
should ought TO know from the start
that Italy is a Big League nation
and its batting average in this war
is just as good as the other Big
League nations"
Did anyone say it wasn't?" Abe
demanded.
IT know they didn't" Morris said.
But Just the same. Abe, there's a
whole lot OF people in America
which judges the Italians by the
way they behave I'm the ice business

That is something which an am
