CHAPTER XVI
The Fight in the Study.

nc FISnL IN the SCuQy.
Eaton dismissed the man who had
been waiting in his rooms for him: he
locked the door and carefully drew
down all the window shades Then he
put his overcoat, folded as .he had
been carrying it under his arm, on
the writing table in the center of the
room, and from it's folds and pockets
took a "breast-drill' such as iron
workers use in drilling steel, an auto
matte pistol with three clips of car
tridges, an electric fashlight and
little bottle Of nitroglycerin. He
loaded the pistol and put it in his
pocket; then he carefully inspected
the other things.
He raised a shade and window, and
sat In the dark. The night was
cloudy and very dark. He gazed at
the south wing Of the house; the win
dows of the first floor were closed and
the curtains drawn: but tonight there
was no light in the room. Then in the
dark he moved to the table where he
had left his overcoat, and distributed
in his pockets and within his clothing
the articles he had brought; and now
he felt again in the overcoat and
brought out short, strong bar of
steel curved and f1attened at one end
a Jimmy" for forcing the windows.
Eaton slipped off his shoes and went
to his room door; he opened the door
and found the hall dark and quiet.
He stepped out, closing his door care
fully behind him, and with great eau
ton he descended the stairs He went
to a window in the drawing room
which was set in recess and so
placed that 1t was not visible from
other windows in the house. He
opened this window and let himself
down upon the lawn. He gained the
south corner of the wing, unobserved
or at least without sign that he had
been seen, and went on around 1t.
He stopped at the first high French
window on the south. AS he tried to
slip his Jimmy under the bottom of
the sash, the window, to his amaze
ment, opened silently upon its hinges !;
1t had not been locked. The heavy
curtains within hung just in front of
him; he put out his hand and parted
them Then he started back in aston
ishment and crouched close to the
ground; inside the room was a man
moving about, flashing an electric
corch before him and then exploring
an instant In darkness and flashing
his torch again.
Eaton had not been at all prepared
for this; now he knew suddenly that
he ought to have been prepared for 1t.

tried to help HMM some way and
for some reason which she did not
know-Warden had been killed. And
feeling that in helping him there might
be danger to herself, she suddenly and
eagerly welcomed that danger, and
made her decision.
You'll promise, Mr.. Eaton, not to
try to-leRve"
"Yes."
Let us go out" she said.
She led the way downstairs and, in
the hall, picked up a cape; he threw,
it over her shoulders and brought his
overcoat and cap. But in his absorp-
ton he forgot to put them on until,
as they went out into the garden to-
gether she reminded him; then he put
on the cap. The night was clear and
cool, and no one but themselves
seemed to be about the house.
Which way do you want to goY'
she asked.
He turned toward the forested
acres Of the grounds which ran down
to ravine at the bottom of which
a little stream trickled toward the
lake. AS they approached the side
OF this rayine, a man appeared and
investigated them. He recognized the
girls figure and halted.
ITS all right, Willis" she said qui-
city.
Yes, ma'am."
They passed the man and went
down the path into the ravine and up
the tiny valley. Eaton halted.

moments for met"
NO. she said. "You win return

YES" he said; and with that per-
mission, he left her.
Both had spoken so that the man
above could not have heard; and Har-
riet now noticed that, as her compan-
lon hurried ahead, he went almost
noiselessly. She stood still, shivering
a little now in the cold; and she lis
tened, she no longer heard his foot
steps. What she had done was done

knew at once it was he, but a change
in the tone surprised her. She stepped
forward to meet him.

what did he tell you? I mean
what is wrong that you did not ex-
pect?'
She heard his breath come fast.
Nothing" he denied.
"No; you must tell me! Can't YOU
trust me?"
Trust you'll" he cried. He turned
to her and seized her hands. <"You
ask me to-trust your
Eyes; I've trusted you. Can't you
believe as much in me?"
Believe in you, Miss Santoine!"
He crushed her fingers in his grasp
"Oh, my God, 1 wish l could!"
You wish you could?' she echoed
The tone of it struck her like blow,
and she tore her hands away "What
do you mean by that?"
He made no reply but stood staring
at her through the dark. 1--WE must
go back" he said queerly. you're
cold"
She did not answer but started back
up the path to the house. He seemed
to have caught himself together
against some impulse that stirred him
strongly. "The man out there who
saw US? He will report to your ia
ther, Miss Santoine?" he asked un-
steadily.
Reports for Father are first made
to me-
Il see." He did not ask her what
she was going to do; If he was assum-
ing that her permission to exceed his
set limits bound her not to report to
her father. she did not accept that
assumption, though she would not re-
port to the blind man tonight, for she
knew he must now be asleep. But
she felt that Eaton was no longer
thinking of this. AS they entered the
house and he helped her lay off her
cape, he suddenly faced her.
eve are in strange relation to
each other, Miss Santoine-stranger
than you know" he said unevenly.
She waited for him to go on.
when the time comes that you
comprehend what our actual relation
is, II want you to know that I'M
derstand that whatever you have done
was done because you believed 1t
might bring about the greater good.

thy. If did not know"
she started, gazing at him, what he
said had absolutely no meaning for
her. "What is it that you known" she
demanded.
He did not reply his hand went out
to hers, seized it, crushed it, and he
started away. AS he went up the
stairs-still, in his absorption, carrying
cap and overcoat-she stood staring
after him in perplexity.
