All the way to New York it seemed

he wrote of her to Lucy from his hotel
the next night:

the paper states that it was plainly

1t seemed to me that l had never seer

but, as you know, thinking of his moth

him! OF course, however, he has my

He posted the letter, and by the

the fact that he was a "hard-headed
business man" as we'll as an adven-
turer did not keep him from having a
queer spot in his brain, because hard
headed business men are as suscep-
tible to such spots as Adventures are.
Two weeks after Isabel's death, Eu-
gene was in New York on urgent bust

nothing to do. His room at the hotel

way to her, or lose his mind. Under
this pressure he had gone, with COM
iplete scepticism, to q "trance-medium"

from the wife of a business acquaint-

The experience had been grotesque,

"psychic;" but otherwise she seemed
