the transfer and the check are still safe where Lundy put them. I've an idea several people have been looking for them. But go on, Jerry" e
 Dad stopped payment of the check he had given Lundy. He came up here and put everything he had into land and water develop nent. You know what happened. Everything he touched prospered.
 He wanted to erase as much of the past as he could, but he knew that somebody was bound to recognize him as time went on. Of course he didn't figure on blackmail. But Dillon had, and about five years after Dad came into the San Fe- lipe, he turned up and demanded S5 900 a year to keep his mouth shut about the killing of Lundy.
 Dad paid him. It wasn't coward ice, of course. He always doubted Dillon's ability to make the charoe stick. But dad had married, I was born and mother was in deli cate health. If dad had kicked Dillon out, ne would have involved himself in a nasty mess and the shock would probably have finished her. So he paid. After mcther's death, 10 years ago, he shrank from opening up the case on my account.
 Dad had made barrel of mon ey and $5,O00 a year meant nothing ling to him. Dillon sent him a poker chip every year to remind him the money was due. A month ago Dillon overplayed his hand. He demanded $100,000. This jolt was just what dad needed. He blew up and told Dillon he'd never get another cent. Dillon gave him a month to change his mind.
 This was the situation when dad stumbled into. Mrs. Lundy last week. Dad was struck by her name and 1 he took her into the house. It turned out that she was the wife of Joe Lundy, the Torridity resort keeper. You can imagine dads state of mind when she told him Lundy hadn't died"
 Do you know who this man Dillon is?" Deacon demande e q
 sharply. W

rvs story, was amazing. Our evil dence had suggested much, but it actually had revealed little, and this exquisite dovetailing of cause and effect fascinated me. Even my experience in the "eecret' room had become clear. Wax figures, in deed!
 I had not mlssed the pathos of Furie's devotion to his Bull and Nap. For 30 years he had guarded and cherished them! No wonder his terror that they might be de- stroyed or taken from him had driven him to deceive me! Poor Furie! I gave Bull and Nap credi for saving what sanity was left to him.
 Our case was far from complete, however. Jerry, I believed, h d more to tell us.
 And so," Henry muttered, break ing the silence, that was the poker game that cracked the town"
 Jerry nodded, his eyes breeding. l"Torridity was abandoned shortly afterwards .'. II wish I could have put it in the way dad did.''
 "You have" told him, gently.
 T never felt as if I really knew him." the boy went on.
 Perhaps you thought of him as wearing a mask" feT r
 That's it!" he exclaimed. "A mask, yes. But sometimes the mask slipped. It's a queer thing to say about ones father"
 I nodded understandingly, but Lucy shook her head.
 Tt was the real Uncle Andrew shining through the mask" she said, with deeper insight than ITS. aThat awful game, the finding of Uncle Jerry dead-they must have done dreadful things to him. Poor Uncle Andrew"
 Tt meant changing his speech, his mode of living, his outlook on life" Henry observed thoughtfully. But fundamentally he remained 1 the same"
 "Only sometimes the mask wore thin" I added sadly.
 Jerry shut his eyes. When think of the way I harried him about that raine."

It was hard to really find ones father and lose him in the space of an hour or two and I started up, intending to drop my arm over his shoulder, but Lucy was before me Sliding onto the wig of his chair, she gently drew his head to her breast and ran her fingers softly through his dark hair.
 You had better tell us the rest of it, Jerry" I said.
 He nodded. Dad had no trouble about the mine. It was never claimed. He waited a few years, then he had it transferred to his new name. Queer what happened to the transfer and the check, isn't it? If Lundy didn't leave the room between the end of the game and when dad shot him, neither did the transfer and the check-unless Lundy passed them on to some one
 ,lse, which doesn't seem likely" His mind is a blank about what happened to him that night" said. He won't know what he die with the papers. He must have hidden them so well that nobody las been able to find them"
