the sleeper's breakfast time.
Presently Brent stirred and sat
UP, tossing the cover away and
stretching his silk-clad arms lux
uriously. But for all the comfort
and security of his surroundings his
brow was creased with scowl as
he observed the storm spending it
self against the glass barriers.
For a moment he was tempted
to give up his plans, to remain in

before go glimmering. But Brent
had found that logged determine
ton won many victories for him
and he was loath to overlook even
the faintest promise Of rich haul.
There might be something be-
sides imagination in the old mans
story. he reflected. He had fol-
lowed up more fantastic, more i'm
possible seeming leads, and found
himself rewarded for his pains.
An hour later he took his GUS
tomary place in the hotel dining
room and ordered a substantial
breakfast. being in doubt as to when
and where he would lunch.
When the crisp bacon, the deli
cately cooked eggs and the thin
brown toast were eaten, the second
cup OF crystal-clear coffee leisurely
downed, he got up to set out on
the task to which he meant to de-
vote the day.
He hesitated about using his own

He already had consulted a d.

in YonkerS a man named Cyril
Kilmer Cunningham, just as Nellin
had said. But what he wanted now
was more intimate information con-

His first move when he drove
into the main section of the vii
