Death itself is seldom so pain

Mckay Hedden was as completely
out of the combat as If he had
been shot through the heart.
Nevertheless, in the added fury
which successful sblow begets,
the meek and gentle Silver Sands
was for killing him.
She felt herself caught from be-
hind in two strong gentle arms.
Without even turning her head,
she knew that they belonged to
Henley. But she did turn her
head and buried it on his breast

Warning softly, doubling Hedden's
little finger sharply upon itself.
"Well, If there is a policeman
outside the building and you
start anything, III break your
finger dead off : Now,
then, we'll just step into this
second cab and wait at my house
for Henley. He's going to see
the ladies' home"
Let go my finger" said Hedden
in a voice convulsed with rage
and fear.
Shut up" said Waring, and
kept his subduing grip.

"A moment later the cab

you not to know said Waring.
They reached the house, and
Hedden was conducted to Sam

civilized Englishmen tying a wick
