He swung sharply round and
searched every shadow in the room
with the glare of the portable
lamp.
Placing the lamp on the floor and

squarely upon the middle section OF

delicate fngertips that had not yet.

But the racked pigeonholes held
nothing TO interest him whose one
aim was the recovery OF the Mon

dedicated simply to the storage of
documents.

too much TO compromise him. Good
Lord! what vanity is man'sr'
He selected a pigeonhole at haz-

dies OF letters. all neatly bound with
tape or faded ribbon and clearly
docketed. His eye was caught by a
great name endorsed on the face of
one OF the packages; and reading
what else was written there his
brows rose high while his lips
shaped a soundless whistle. Lame
had kept such documents as gave
her power over others. Lanyard

In an instantaneous pause he
looked into the rose-pink room and
saw Lame Lelorme. in a negligee

handkerchief was slowly frightened;
her face already purple with strangu-
lation. her eyes bullying from their

tween swollen lips.
A thick knee was planted between
her shoulder blades. The ends OF
the handkerchief were in the sinewy
