The inques, is tomorrow afternoon. Do amuse yourself how you like till then" Thanks very much. shall really be quite all right"
 Antony went on with his breakfast Perhaps it was true that inspectors liked dragging ponds but the question was, did Cayleys like having them dragged Was Cayley anxious about 1t. or quite indifferent? He certainly did not seem to be anxious, but he could hide his feelings very easily beneath that heavy, solid face.
 Bill came in noisily--
 Bill's face was an open book .Ex- citement was written all over it
 Well" he said eagerly, as he sat what are we going to do this morn ing"
 Not talk so loudly, for one thing, :" said Antony.
 Bill looked about him apprensively. Was Cayley under the table, for example, After last night one never knew.

 Talking about trap-doors-"

  and he slapped him heartily on the back as he went past him-'1 shall see you later. Cayley says that you will amuse me, but so far you have not made me laugh but once. You must try and be more amusing when you have finished your breakfast.

 Well, that question was not to be answered of-hand, But inc fact that it was so had made Antony interested in her By sheer luck. as it seemed to him, he had stumbled on the answer t0 his question.

F., Aug. 1O.-Admiral Sir William Pakenham and 500 off, cers and men of the cruiser Raleigh, flagship of the British north Atlantic squadron which grounded on Point Amour in the Strait of Belle Isle yes- terday, were safely quartered on the bleak Labrador coast today awaiting transporta ton to Halifax.

 T wonder if Marks hiding there ' thought Antony; and he went to sleep.
 CHAPTER x.
 Antony came down in a very good humor to breakfast next morning, and found that his host was before him Cayley looked up from his letters and nodded.
 Any word of Mir. Ablett--of Mark ?" said Antony, as he poured out his coffee
 No. The inspector wants to drag the lake this afternoon"
 "Oh. It there a lake,"
 There was just the flicker of smile on Cayley's face, but it dis appeared as quickly as it came.
 Well, it's really pond" he said, but it was called the lake"
 By Mark" thought Antony. Aloud, he said, What do they expect to find ."
 "'They think that Mark" He broke off and shrugged his shoulders.
 May have drowned himself, know ing that he couldn't get away? And knowing that he had compromised himself by trying to get away at all ?"
 Yes; l suppose so," said Cayley slowly.
 He added dryly, Prom what I've read Of detective stories, inspectors always do want to drag the pond first"
 Is it deep?"

COON WITH THE STORY

Antony wanted to shout his ap- plause. It was neat, devilish neat. For a moment he gazed, fascinated, at that wonderful new kind of cro- Quet-ball which had appeared so dra- naticaly out of the box, and then re- luctantly wiggled himself back. There was nothing to be gained by staying there, and a good deal to be losts for Bill showed signs of running down. AS quickly as he could Antony hur- ried round the ditch and took up his place at the back of the seat. Then he stood up with yawn. stretched himself and said carelessly. Well, don't worry yourself about it, Bill, old man. l daresay you're right You know Mark, and I don't and that's the difference. Shall we have a game or shall we go to bed?"
 Bill looked at him for inspiration. receiving it, said, "Oh, just let's have one game, shall we ?'
 Right you are." said Antony.
 But Bill was much too excited to take the game which followed very seriously Antony, on the other hand, seemed to be thinking of nothing but bowls. He played with great de- liberation for ten minutes, and then announced he was going to bed. Bill looked at him anxiously.
 Its all right" laughed Antony You can talk if you want to. Just let's put 'em away first, though.
 They made their way to the shed, and while Bill was putting the bowls away. Antony tried the lid of the closed croquet-box. AS he expected 1t was locked.
 Now then said Bill, as they were walking back to the house again, I'm simply bursting to know. Who was it?"
 'Cayley,"
 Good Lord, Where" ?"
 ''1nside ont of the croQuet boxes
 Don't be an ass
 Its quite true. Bill" He told the other what he had seen.
 But aren't we going to have look at it?" asked Bill in great disappoint- ment. Pm longing to explore. Aren't you?'
 "Tomorrow and tomorrow and to- morrow. We shall see Cayley com ing along this way directly. Besides, I want to get in from the other end, if can. doubt very much If we can do it at this end without giving ourselves away Look, there Cayley."
 They could see him coming along the drive toward them. When they were a little closer, they waved to hlm and he waved back.
 T wondered where you were, ne aid, as he got up to them. T rather thought you might be along this way. What about bed? ?"
 Bed it is," said Antony.
 Bill left the rest of the converse tion, as they wandered back to the house, to Antony He wanted to think. There seemed to be no doubt now that Cayley was william Bill had never been familiar with william before It didn't seem quite fair to cayley, somehow; he was taking rather a mean advantage of his friends. Lot of funny people there were in the world-funny people with secrets. Look at Tony, that f1rst time he had met him in a tobacco rdst's shop,
 But what on earth had Miss Norris got to do with it?
