his chair and looked around Who
were these Sherrills? Who was Cor

Sherrills? What, beyond all, was their
and Corvet's relation to Alan Conrad
to himself? The shock and confusion
he had felt at the nature of h;s recep-

ness of his transition from his little

such as this, had prevented him from

she seemed to decide to leave that for

big chair beside the CRATE and seated
herself. AS she sat looking at him,
hands clasped beneath her chin, and
her elbows resting on the arm of the
chair, there was speculation and in

ask him anything more about himself.

ALAN CONRAD.

SYNOPSIS.- Wealthy and highly
placed in the Chicago business
world. Benjamin Corvet is some
thing of a recluse and a mystery
to his associates After a stormy
interview with his partner, Henry
Spearman, Corvet seeks Constance
Sheriff.. daughter of his other bust
ness partner. Lawrence Sheriff.
She admits Spearman has asked
her TO marry him and that she
hasn't given him an answer. Cor
Vet-"Uncle Benny"-makes her
promise not to give an answer It'll
] come back" Corvet is much agi-
tated and acts strangely. Then he
disappears. Sheriff. learns that
Corvet has written to Alan Conrad
in Blue Rapids, Kan, summoning
him to Chicago. None of Corvet's
associates have ever heard of Alan
Conrad.

Corvet, perhaps, the closest of all re-
latiOnships? Was Corvet his i.
father? He checked the question
within himself, for the time had
passed for mere speculation upon it
now. Alan was trembling eXcitedly ;
for-whoever Corvet might be-the
enigma of Alan's existence was going
to be answered when he had entered
that house. He was going TO know
who he was. All the possibilities, the
responsibilities, the attachments. the
opportunities, perhaps. Of that person
whom he was-but whom. as yet. he
did n, know-were before him. He
went up the steps and, with fingers

the station, pricked in Alan's veins,
and hastily he dropped the window to
his right and gazed out. The lake,
as he had known since his geography
days, lay to the east of Chicago :;
therefore that void out there beyond
the park was the lake or at least, the
harbOr. A different air seemed to
come from it; sounds Suddenly
it all was shut off; the taxicab,
swerving little, was dashing between
business blocks a row of buildings
had risen again upon the right; they
broke abruptly to show him a wooden
walled chasm in which flowed the
river full of ice with tug dropping
its smOkestack as 1t cut below the
bridge which the cab crossed; build
ings on both sides again; then, to the
right, roaring, heaving crashing eX-
panSe.
The sound, Alan knew, had been
coming to him as an undertone for
many minutes; now it overwhelmed,
swallowed all other sound 1t was
great, not loud; all sound which Alan
had heard before, except the soughing
of the wind over his prairies, came
from one point; even the monstrous
city murmur was centered in compari-
son with this. Over the lake, as over
the land, the soft Snowfiakes laZily
floated down, scarcely stirred by the
slightest breeze; that roar was the
voice of the water, that awful power
its own.
Alan choked and gasped for breath,
his pulses pounding in his throat; he
had snatched off his hat and, leaning
out Of the window sucked the lake air
in his lungs. There had been nothing
to make him expect this overwhelming
crush of feeling. The lake-he had
thought of it, of course, as a great
body of water, an interesting sight
for prairie boy TO see that was all.
No physical experience in all his
memory had affected him like this
and it was without warming; the
strange thing that had stirred within
him as the car brought him to the
Drive downtown was strengthened
now a thousand-fold it amazed, half
frightened, half dizzied him. Now. as
the motor suddenly swung around a
corner and shut the sight of the lake
from him, Alan sat back breathless.
The car swerved to the east curb
about the middle of the block and
came to a stop. The house before
which it had halted was large stone
house of quiet, good design; it was
some generation older, apparently.
than the houses on each side of it,
which were brick and terra Gotta of
recent fashionable architecture; Alan
only glanced at them long enough to
get that impression before he opened
the cab door and got out; but as the
cab drove away, he stood beside his
suitcase looking up at the old house
which bore the number given in Ben
jamin Corvet's letter, then around at
again.
The neighborhood obviously pre-
Guided the probability of Corvet's be-
ing merely a lawyer-a go-between.
