mud of Ivy cottage from his feet.
1t was broad daylight when he had
crossed the fields and came within

cloak and its accessories under a thorn
bush, glanced at his watch again,
seated himself under the hedge, and
Lit a cigarette.
He drew the Jewel case from his
pocket and examined the necklace,
thoughtfully emitting pufrs Of smoke.
Then he replaced the case in his
pocket and finished his cigarette. his

lines. Finally he rose and walked

Jervaulx.
There was no electric bell In the
great porch. He pulled a pendant

was nearing its close.
Billy avoided the roads. He struck

cottage with as little loss of time as
possible. But the eastern sky was
rapidly Tightening when he arrived.
Entering the garden with extreme eau

climbed the trellls deity, and heaved
himself through Aimee's window.
With a certain sense Of embarrass-

torch, unlocked the blue dust-cloak
that hung on the door, folded It small,
and packed 1t inside his jacket. That
was the main object Of the expedition.
