 CHAPTER xxxIII
 The gossip about Juanito and Estelle finally reached Lottie. ''l'll spoil her face!" she promised shrilly as she stood. arms akimbo, looking down at Beau who lounged an deep wicker chair.
 "Aw, show a little sense!"
 Tt means we'll be kicked outa here,' Lottie said crafty. That might reach Beau, she thought.
 "A lot you're worryin about that!" he commented. "Kid", he said easily, i've got our rake-off. l know how you feel about him, Lottie, but he don't lean your way an that's all there is to it. You might as well make up your mind about 1t. It ain't your fault an 1t ain't l1is.''
 "I'll kill that grill"
 "Now don't talk crazy! You got enough to keep you the rest of your days-with what you can pick up easy. You don't wanta go knif- in anyone"
 Don't IF"
 LAW, have some sense!" he ad- vised again, much tried and show ing it.
 Marcia sat by Estelle's bed. The girl had suddenly become i'll when she heard Marcia planned to go to the fight at La Mirafores. She had asked Marcia to stay with her. Marcia had stayed, but she had also done some wondering.
 She knew that Estelle was only pretending to be, sick. Este1le had recently shown little desire for Marcia's company. She had been an irreproachable hostess but Mar. cia had sensed the fact that Estelle did not like her.
 We'll, in time she'd find out what 1t meant, Marcia decided. Mean .'sheil I read to you, dear?" she asked.
 Estelle- said that would be very nice. As Marcia hunted for the book Estelle added, q hat to think of your going Monday--it is Mon- day, isn't it?"
 Marcia smiled. Quite obviously the child wanted her out of the way.
 q might stop a bit longer" she said with hidden malice, eff some- one begged me--very prettily!'
 She saw Estelle swallow hard at that. "Now what's up?" Marcia asked herself. What in the world-?,'
 Tim Field recognized Juanito as Pablito, the boy who had run his boats, but he had no intention of mentioning the fact. He had won heavily on Juanito. '"Ted Jeff fries was no good anyway" Field thought as he rode home through the darkness, the scents and mov- ing air that make moonless Cuban, night.
 No, he would not give Pablito away. But before the passage of An hour he had put codicil to this decision.
 Carlito was in the hall with letter in his hand as Field entered. Carlito showed his surprise and made the mistake of holding the letter behind him.
 What have you there?" Field demanded.
 Nothing. Sir"
 Let me see it's
 ''It is-a letter from the sweet heart of one of the servants. take it to him."
 'T said 1et-me see it!"
 Carlito answered bravely. MT Field, it is a letter from 8 lady" down?,''
 Carlito felt Fields strong, blunt fingers tighten on his arm. A mo- ment and the letter was in those same fingers.
 "A letter from one of the ser vants-addressed to my daughter!" Field sneered as he slit the envel- op. He drew forth the folded sheet beginning, My own dearest" and ending, Juanito.''
 Field laughed. "God!" he ex- claimed, ''this is a find! And I thought she was mild as nilk!"
 The letter still in his hand, he pounded up the stairs and made htS xryoy 1xyifhny1f knnakino irafn his daughters room. She was in her night things and negligee, standing by window, Field smiled on her with that smile, he always gave those wholly within his power.
 .'I have letter that is directed
