The colonel nodded.
"He never talked about his relations.
The only thing I know was that he had
n father or an uncle who was in India,
and l gathered that he had forged his
name to a bill. When I arrived in
Monte Carlo he was spending the money
as fast as he could. I guess that was
why he called himself Gregory, for I'm
sure It wasn't his NAME
You're sure he never spoke OF a

"What year would that be?"

"He left college two years before
met him Mt Monte Carlo" he said
that would be-" He gave the
year.
"Well. It is pretty simple" said the
colonel. "Send a man to Oxford and
get the names Of all the men who left
Balliol in that year. Find out how
many you can trace, and I dare say
that will narrow the search down to
two or three men. Now get after this

He dismissed Crewe and gave fresh

minutes later he was stepping out of his
limousine at the entrance to Scotland

ming newspaper rs he was stepping into
his car, and now he was driving slowly
through the park. He lit a cigar and
gazed, stolidly from the window. But
his face showed no sign Of mental per-
turbation.
The car had made the circuit Of the
park twice when, turning again by
Marble Arch, he saw Crewe standing
on the sidewalk. A word to his chauf-
feur, and the machine drew up.
Come in," he said curtly, and the
other obeyed.
The hand that he lifted to take his
cigarette from his lips trembled, and
the colonel eyed him with quiet amuse-
ment. ,'....
"They've got you ratified, too, have
they?" he said.
-, 1T !! is awfull' said crewe. "Aw-
whats awful about it?' asked the
colonel. Whites dead, amt he? And
might talk and give lot Of trouble"
"What did he say before he died !
That's what I've been thinking. What
did he say?'
"WhoHRaoul?" demanded the colo

question before. "What could he say
Anyway, If he had statement to make,
and his statement was worth taking,
why, he'd be alive today! Raoul was
the one witness that they wanted, II

colonel. "You ask me these foolish
questions--do you expect a reply !
They're dead and that's done with.

mess Of my room. Tho smcll-phew ~

The colonel growled something about
fools and their questions, but offered
no explanation.

make us change our quarters-the stuff

but If he thinks he can scare mc--"
He sucked viciously at his cigar butt

he said. I'm be back there tonight.
The colonel threw the end of his cigar
from the window and relapsed into a
moody revere. When he spoke it was
in more cheerful tone.
"Crewe," he said. again. "that guy
at Scotland Yard has given me al
idea"

colonel, lighting another cigar. 'Hc

came down the dark path, stopping only
for a second TO look down upon the
figure of Solomon White.

Tho Colonel Is Shocked

door Of the empty house and the sway.
ing figure Of his murderer hanging III
tho Kitchen, with no other mark OF
Identification than a playing card PIN
ned to his breast.
"The tragedy can be reconstructed up
to point. Mr.. White was evidently
killed in the garden by the Erenchman
who was found hanging. The auto.
matte pistol in his pocket, which had
recently been discharged, might support
this theory, even IT, the police had not
found tracks of his feet in the laurels.
But who hanged the man Raoul with a
hangman's rope? That is the supreme
mystery of all. The Putney police can
offer no information on the subject, and
Scotland Yard is as reticent. The. cir
cumstances Of the discovery are as
follows: At 3 o'clock on the morning
Of the 4th. Police Constable Robin
son, who was patrolling his beat, en-
tered tho garden, as is customary when
houses are empty, to see II any doors
had been forced. There has been an
epidemic of burgaries in the region OF
Putncy Heath during the past two or
three months, and the police are ex-
crcising unusual vigilance In relation
to these houses. Tho constable might
not have made his inspection that night
but for the fact that the garden gate
had been left wide open.'
Here followed an account OF how the
body was found, and how further in
vestigation led the constable to the
kitchen to make his second gruesome
discovery.
Colonel Boundary folded up the paper
slowly and put it down. He had bought
