/. wants to know if he should
sell out not for my sake, old
man I'll see you through. Well,
I wouldn't spoil your fight to get
out a hundred times the amount
I'm in it,"
Virginia put down the book,
Good for you, Dad" she said soft
ly. I'VE don't quit, do we?"
1t seemed to her that her father
had spoken to her through his di-
airy. Perhaps he knew I'd need a
pat on the back some cay" she said
to herself.
She read through to the end. Now
and then there was mention OF
Leigh. Nothing new. The big sugar
people still after his Haiti planta-
lions.
Leigh still holding out "It
doesn't matter whether he wins OF
loses, it's the fun he gets out of a
fight that keeps him at it >" her
father had written near the end.
Haiti, ;" Virginia whispered
Haiti. That's one of the islands
on the Agena's cruise! I wonder
If Old Oddly is still there?"
From that thought grew the
idea Of getting help from the man
her father once had aided.
IF he's able to, he will do it," she
assured herself.
Still holding out" That line in
the diary impressed her. There
must be something to hold out for,
she reasoned hopefully.
The morning after her perusal
Of the diary she telephoned to Mr..
Gardiner to ask If there was any
record of a business transaction
between her father and man
named o. D. o. Leigh.
She Surmised that oddly" Leigh
would insist upon repaying the
loan her father had made in graft
tude when he sold the plantations
The diary had closed some few
weeks previous to her fathers
death. Perhaps the sale had been
made in that time.
Virginia did not believe so but
she wanted to find out if possible
She remembered that Mr.. Gardner
had spoken of the money her
father had obtained on the estate
at Glen Cove.
He had not mentioned a sum OF
SOS, 900, as he might have done if
1t had come to the estate SO
recently.
Besides, If her father had re-
ceived it, Virginia thought, ii
would have gone to Frederick Dean;
and ne had not acknowledged
receiving any part of the money
he claimed her father had cheated
him of.
Mr.. Gardiner replied by letter
after looking into the matter and
informed Virginia that there was
no record of the Brewster estate
containing the name of Leigh.
Virginia breathed a sigh of thank.
fulness. She regretted, however,
that Stacy was away on his ship
She wanted to ask for more informa.
