Before Frances could make a reply
to Annie's rather two-edged state
ment. Mrs. Langdon, bearing tray in
her hands, entered from the kitchen.
Catching sight of the two girls to-
gether at one table, she paused, rails
ing her eyes in doubt as she met An
MES glance. Some message that
Frances could not fathom. passed be-
tween the woman and the girl for Mrs.
Langdon's frown gave place to smile
and she moved forward, placing the
tray on the table before Frances.
There was little about the dainty
sandwiches. the tea. in its old blue
pot, and the snowy linen to suggest

other girls story from her. or how far

The decision of these problems how

a most unexpected manner, for she had
hardly time to add sugar to the tea

walked into the room
Annie's lips uttered a little gasp of
surprise as she looked up. and recoS-
nized the new conner. Mrs. Langdon,
also making sure of the mans identity,
clicked her teeth and disappeared into
the kitchen. Her going was rather
hurried and Frances, watching the
man. wondered a little at what quar-
rel Mrs Langdon could have with the
gangster.
This latest arrival was the same
man whom Frances had seen in the
train, the man who had been dubbed
Red I.arkin'' by the detective.
