table, In his private sitting
room In the Bayne-Miloy
~ Hotel, John Bruce had been
writing steadily for half an hour, but
the sheets Of paper over which his
pen travelled freely and swiftly were
virgin white. He paused now, re-
mained a moment in thought. and
then added a line to the last sheet
No mark was left, but from the move
ment of the pen this appeared to be
a signature.
He gathered the sheets together,
folded them neatly and slipped them
into an envelope. He replaced the cap
on the fountain pen he had oeen
using, placed the pen In his vest
pocket, and from another pocket TOOK

velope, stamped 1t, put 1t In his

and frowned at the ascending spirals
of smoke from the cigarettes tip.

He fiicked the ash irritably from his

feeling had been constantly growing
upon him. Why? He did not know

should it? He ad met a pawnbroker

now was the recrudescence of the

from Paul VeniZa's to the hotel here.
Nor was it any more true than il was
fair. What of the days and nights of
