was a good chance that darlington
would not recognize that the driver
of his car had changed. And if he
did-well, it would be necessary to
foregO the somewhat theatrical enter
tainment he had staged for his benefit
at The EIms. Bending over the dead
man, he removed his long grey driv-
lng-coat and cap; then, without a
sound, he threaded his way through
the bushes in search Of the car.
He found it about a hundred yards
nearer the house, so well hidden in
small space on the road that he
was almost on top Of 1t before he real
lied the fact. To his relief 1t was
empty, and placing his own cap in a
pocket under the seat he put on the
driving coat of his predecessor. Then,
with quick glance round TO ensure
that everything was In readiness for
the immediate and rapid departure
such as he imagined darlington would
desire, he turned and crept stealthily
toward the house.

Peace Brings Woe to Alley DweIlers

which existed here at that time con-
gress continued the date to one year
after peace.
