Somehow, which heaven only knew

herself could not remember, the girl
dragged herself sometimes during
that age-long Wednesday to the
kitchen.
When she awakened to brief
period of consciousness during the
afternoon she found the water
bucket beside her cot, and drank
greedily, making sounds like an
animal.
Lying back, weak but refreshed,
Crystal raised a hand to her head
again and found to her amazement
that she had somehow managed to
bandage her wound.
Her fingers touched thick folds Of
jersey silk. She had used one of her
dainty undergarments she had
brought away with her in the suit
case.
Raising herself on an elbow,
Crystal looked with fever-blurred
eyes about the room. Maybe some
one had come to helpl But the
room was empty, silent and very
cold.
The cold felt good to Crystals
burning cheeks. Her suitcase yawned
wide in the middle of she room, her
garments scattered in amazing con-
fusion. The effort was too much for
her, and Crystal sank back upon the
bare mattress, lost in unconscious
ness again.
The next time she awakened it
was to the sound Of family IA
miliar voice shouting her name. She
did not answer. 1t was only night
mare, she told herself.

CHAPTER VII

CLOWLY, her feet feeling as stiff
- and cold as the thing that lay
on the floor, Ruth Lester backed
toward the door which led into her
own Office, her hand cropping for the
knob, in a desperate need for some
thing to cling to, for her whole world
was whirling madly about her
But her staring, unwinking blue
eyes could not tear themselves away
from the sight which filled them
the PROSTATE body of her employer,
Handsome Harry Borden.
Even in death he looked hand
come. His still face, very white
against the polished dark brown
wood of the floor and in contrast
with the sleek blackness of his I'M
ruffled hair, was pillowed upon his
up-1ung left arm, SO that he looked
as if he slept.
But the rigid stiffness of that
crumpled body was not the peace
of sleep. From beneath the slightly
raised right shoulder-he had fallen
upon his side-something which had
once been warm and red had spurt-
ed, forming a dark, irregularly
shaped pool, dry now at the edges.
Her cropping hand found the door
knob, and she chung to 1t, swaying
diZZily for a moment.
Then, frenzy taking the place Of
stunned horror, she banged the
door upon that CHASTITY sight and
staggered across her own office,
both hands reaching for the outer
door.
When she had come in, she had
left it on the latch, so that visitors
to the Office might gain access, and
as she left it swing shut behind her
fleeing, horror driven figure, she
had the impulse, born of long habit,
to click on the latch, SO that no one
could enter during her absence.
Nobody can hurt him now He
needn't be afraid of unlocked doors
