I saw him glance toward the
door OF the room where Jack and
Zilla were, and l knew then what
il meant to be a mans friend
from Bob's point OF view"
Major Tom paused. and again
directed his glance out OF the
window. He saw some one in the
Stockmen's National Bank reach
and draw a yellow shade down
the whole length OF its plate
glass, big front window, although
the position of the sun did not
seem to warrant such a defensive
movement against its rays.
NettlewiCk sat up straight in
his chair. He had listened pa
tiently, but without consuming
interest, to the majors story. 1t
had impressed him as Irrelevant
to the question, and il could GER
tainly have no effect upon the
consequences. Those Western
people, he thought, had an eX-
aggerated sentimentAlity They
were not business like. They
needed to be protected from their
friends. Evidently the major had
concluded. And what he had said
amounted 10 nothing.
May ! ask" said the examiner,
IT you have anything further 70
say that bears directly upon the
question OF those abstracted Sc
Curltiesc"
"AbstracJed securities, sir"
Major Tom turned suddenly in
his chair, his blue eyes flashing
upon the examiner. What do you
mean, sir?"
He drew from his coat pocket
a batch Of folded papers held to-
gether by a rubber band, tossed
them into Nettlewick's hands, and
rose to his feet
You'll find those securities
there. sir. every stock, bond and
share Of EN-. l took them from
the notes while you were count
ing the cash. Examine and COM
pare them for yourself"
The major led the wa back
into the banking room. The cN-
aminer, astoUnded. pen. .eXed, net
tied. at sea, followed. He felt
that he had been made the vic
tim of something that Eas not
exactly a hoax, but that left HIM
in the shoes OF one who hsi bt en-
played upon, used. and then dis
carded, without even an lnHitnE
Of the game. Perhaps. also, his
official position had been IrreveT-
emily juggled with. But there was
nothing he could take hold Ct.
An official report OF tho matter
would be an absurdity. And
somehow, he felt that he would
never know anything more about
the matter than he did then.
Frigidly, mechanically, Nettle-
wick examined the securities,
found them to tally with the
notes. gathered his black wallet,
and rose to depart.

ing the indignant glare OF his
glasses upon Mai. Kingman, that
