pigeonholes and little drawers in the
upper part of the desk, as he swiftly
opened them, he found entirely empty.
He hurried to the cabinet; the draw
ers of the cabinet too had been forced,
and very recently; for the scars and
the splinters of wood were clean and
fresh. These drawers and the draw
ers in the lower part of the desk
either were empty, or the papers In
them had been dlsarranged and tum-
hled in confusion, as though some one
had examined them hastily and tossed
them back. To Alan, the marks of
violence and roughness were unmis-
takably the work Of the man with the
big hands who had left marks upon
the top of the chest of drawers; and
the feeling that he had been in the
house very recently was stronger than
ever.
Alan ran out into the hall and lis
tened; he heard no sound but he went
back to the little room more excited
than before. For what had the other
man been searching? For the same
things which Alan was looking for?
And had the other man got them?
Who might the other be, and what
might be his connection with Renja-
min Corvet? Alan had no doubt that
everything of Importance must have
been taken away, but he would make
sure of that. He took some Of the pa
pers from the drawers and began TO
examine them; after nearly an hour
of this, he had found only one article
which appeared connected in any way
with what Sheriff. had told him or
with Alan himself. I'm one Of the little
drawers OF the desk he found several
books. much worn as though from
these contained series of entries
stretching over several years These
listed an amount-$150-oppo So
ries OF dates with only the year and
the month given, and there was an
entry for every second month.
Alan felt his fingers trembling as he
turned the pages of the little book
and found at the end of the list
blank, and below, In the same hand
but in writing which had changed
slightly with the passage of years, an
other date and the confirming entry OF
$1,500. Alan looked through the little
book again and put it in his pocket.
