Certeis' secretary and Donna Ca
milla had, Of course, informed him OF
the arrival of his wife and his father
in-law Evidently he took great
bains not to greet Chrystobel alone.
We were gathered in the splendid
salon of the hacienda when its master
entered, rather late for the formal
dinner which was the grand social
feature of life at the hacienda.
Hamilton Certeis advanced to meet
his wife as a prince IS supposed to
meet a princess. Chrys took one
step forward, and her husband kissed
her hand. Don Manuel was pre-
sented to her. Daddy Lorimer was
welcomed in his turn. No stranger
could have guessed that Hamilton
Certeis was a noted German spy and
an enemy to the United States, or
that Daddy Lorimer, his former
friend and business associate, knew
all the facts in the case.
"They are equal forces, those two"
was Bob's comment as we watched
the two men. Daddy is so powerful
that he knows he is as safe under
Hamilton Certeis' roof as ne is in
his own Fifth-av office"
