Chapter g AN ANONYMOUS WARNING

found only a letter from Dr. Lyt- ton saying she had taken Grannock to Baltimore for treatment by Dr. Downing, the eye specialist, accom- panied by Nurse Casey. There was no word of Hallie.
 Lester assumed she must have gone back to New York and so re- turned there, but after a weeks search of hospitals and nursing homes where she must of necessity seek employment, he was forced to admit himself beaten. The strain was beginning to wear him down In desperation he went back to Southcliff and sought out Dr. Lyt- ten, who already had written that he had returned.
 "Morning, Broom. I was just go ing to write to you. Dr. Downing considers that his latest treatment might be of value to your brother. '
 He led the way indoors.
 You're locking a bit off color" continued Lytton.
 "P'raps I've been worrying about old Socks" suggested Lester.
 q suppose I shall hear how he gets on?"
 Certainly"
 Well, look here. what I really came about was Miss Ellesmore. Dyou know where she is?"
 "She went back to New York, :" said Lytton, fixing his eyes upon Lester.
 "Oh, yes-I suppose she did went to buy clothes and get all ready to marry Socks when he comes back! That's a nice little yarn, but you know well enough that if Socks gets his sight back he'll find out she's the girl he's got such a grudge against; and if he doesn't, you'll separate 'em some how. You told me yourself that you'd get her out of Socks life as quickly and quietly as was safe" :"
 "Well?" glowered Lytton.
 I'm merely reminding you that she's engaged to me, that she's go- ing to marry me and that if you don't want her to marry Socks, you might just as well help me to find her"
 If she wanted to marry you, you wouldn't have to look for her, I imagine"
 She wants to marry me all right. At any rate she'd far rather marry me than have me explain matters to Socks"
 That's a specially rotten way of blackmailing a woman!"
 Think so? Somehow, can't see it. It's simply presenting my point of view"
 Lytton turned his back and stared out of the window.
 "You may find it hard to be- lieve," he jerked out at last, but I won't help any man to force himself upon girl who doesn't want him, whatever my private opinion of her may be-"
 T tell you, I shall make her per- fectly happy. Therell be ample in come and nothing to do but spend lit. And very likely therell be Socks with his sight as good as ever and nothing for anyone to worry about"
 She announced, in your pres ence, that she had no intention of marrying you. Unless she assures me she has changed her mind"
 She changed it when she de- cided she didn't want Socks to hear her sad little story. And I don't doubt you'll come to admit that she showed sense"
 "Blackmailing me, too, are you?'
 "Oh, don't be that way, Doctor! I'm only looking at the thing from my point of view" t
 The veins were standing out in Lytton's face. His hands were clenched and his shoulders thrust forward =.
 Are you definitely telling me that you'll write the truth to your brother if I don't help you to find Miss Conaldine?" he shouted.
 T suppose it comes to that" "It's vou that VOLT brother oIrcl,t
