Coral flung back her head and

sight of Chief Forests angry
countenance was too much for her
craven soul. Her head dropped and
she went back to her seat on the
davenport, where Joseph Barry

CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE

CAPTAIN LANCY'S stern ques-
ton: eff that is true, what were
you doing ten miles the other side
of Winnetaumet at twenty
yesterday afternoon? ?" paralyzed
me. I could only stare blankly at
him while thought after thought,
disjointedly and terrifying, flashed
through my mind. I knew why I
was ten miles the other side of
Winnetaumet but, by emitting that
part Of my story when I first told
it, I had put myself into a pretty
pickle. Who would now believe that
had merely lost my way?
Coral EastOn's voice recalled me
to the fact that the detective was
waiting for my answer. T was about
to speak, but the words she spite
fully uttered closed them again. I
flashed a swift glance at her. A
sarcastic, triumphant expression
was on her face.
IT thought it was funny,'' she
was Saying, that all those thinos
happened as soon. as SHE got
here"
The emphasis she placed upon
the prOnoun was unmistakable. NV
blood boiled. Again tried to speak
and again the words died in my
throat.
Captain Lancy's eagle eye was
upon her. "What THINGS, other
than Mrs. Peake's death, have
happened here 2" he demanded au-
thoritatively.
That was her opportunity and
she took full advantage of it. Her
words poured out in a stream of
bitter righteousness. She didn't
like me. I had thought that before.
She proved her enmity now by the
way she tried her best to involve
me in the Hill House mystery.
Twice Barry tried to stop her ma
lignant outpouring, but each time
she threw off his restraining hand
and continued.
l watched her closely while nv
mind worked swiftly. 1 realized
That to a person hearing the story
for the first time I stood in a most
unenviable position. Mrs. Ruther-
ford's poisoning and the ransacking
OF Josie's room could be laid at my
door and saw no possible way by
which I could clear myself from
the charges. But Of the other two
events, the prowler and Mrs.
Peake's death, I could never be ac-
cused. At the time of the first I
was in Albany; that could easily be
proved. And when that awful
scream split the foggy air I stood
with Josie, Rhoda and Duncan on
the terrace. With three such corro-
boraters. need not fear for N.Y.
self.
When Coral finished her story,
l leaned forward to speak. but

at the others side. DR.. Paul spoke
in low murmur to him; then both
Strengthened from bending over the
woman, and Neal started on run
from the room.
DR.. PauPs eyes glanced briefly
into each face. "A shock" he pro-
nOunced in a hard, cold voice. Even
his healing instincts were in obey
ance, frozen at their source by the
disgusting tantrum to which Miss
Ivy had subjected us.
When Neal returned with his
doctors case. the two physicians
again bent over the stricken figure.
Again they conferred; then Neal
spoke:
Josie, will you 60 with Duncan
and Bruce and get the cotbed from
the storeroom. We want to use it for

Miss Ivy home at once. It will not
harm her, covered warmly from the

she should be in her own home I'M

spoke to Alan, who had stood self
consciously watching them work
over the termagant he had escorted
to Hill House.

forehead. 1--WE something to say"
he announced, looking with honest
ly approving eyes at Neal. Maybe
1 shouldn't, but I'm going to say it,
anyway. It's this. I've never seen
anything finer than the way you've
worked over her after what she
said and the way she acted. My
hats off to YOU" He looked Neal
squarely in the eyes as he spoke
Back of me 1 heard Captain
Lancy utter low: Hear, hear"
Neal gave Alan a half smile, but
laid his hard for an instant on the
broad shoulder before him. I knew
by his words that he hadn't missed

an amende honorable, and as such
Alan accepted it.

Deity the two doctors arranged
the unconscious figure, wei
wrapped in blankets, upon the cot
stretcher. The two officers picked
up their burden and, with Altar
showing the way, carried Miss Ivy
home from her first visit TO Hill
House in many years.

door closed behind them, the sense
of horror and strain which had beer

"How dare you come here?" he
shouted You killed my mother, 1
snow YOU did" He was shaking so
.hat he could hardly stand, as he
rnr,ea his accusation at her.
Chief Forrest stepped forward
ana erasped his arm.
Neal. Neal, my boy" he said
soo.hingly, give us time to find
out why she is here. If she killed
your mother, I promise you that
we'll"
Miss Ivy Newcomb did not give
him time to finish. GA fine recep-
ton she snorted, but no different
than [ expected from those up
starts" Her eyes flashed from Neal
10 Josie, with malignant hatred.
I've just learned that my sister
is dead If that is true, this house
belongs to me, and 1 want this I'M
holy crew out of it within ten min
utes. Within ten minutes, I say"
Her voice trembled with rage, as
she shook her fist at us all.
I pitied Alan Murray. He was
deathly white and he tried in vain
to stop her words. He raised his
own voice, almost to a shout in
his endeavor to be heard.
I wouldn't have come with her
if I'd known what she was going
to say" Over the heads Of the rest
his eyes besought Josie's under
standing.
Josie was on her feet. Even in
her righteous wrath she flashed
him a smile beautiful in it's accept
ance of his words. Her voice was
cold, every word fell distinctly on
the surprised ears of her hearers
For your information, Miss
NeWcomb," she said with a sarcas-
tic infection, IT will tell you that
Hill House and all it contains is
mine. Mine! Do you understand
that ?"
It's a lie," shrieked Miss Ivy,
and to my utter establishment
heard Coral Easton's angry voice.
That's not So" she cried. This
house is Meals"
Chief Forrest dropped Meals
arm and STROBE toward Miss Ivy.
Miss Newcomb," he said stern
~, whether this house belongs to
you or not is matter which will
be settled later. The police are in
charge here now and everyone here
will stay here until we release
them"
Il don't care a hang for you and
your police officers, Ben Forrest, "
yelled Miss Ivy. This is my house
and here I'm going to stay"
AS lightly as a bird, Josie moved
across the floor until she stood by
Chief Forests side. Chief Forrest,
it is an insult to my mother for
that woman even to be here. I am
depending upon you to send her
away" With her brown head held
proudly erect, she faced Miss Ivy,
and the scorn in her glance drove
the woman to greater passion.
She crooked her skinny hands
into horrible semblance of an ami
mails claw and swooped forward
as if she would tear Josie's eyes
from her face.
Chief Forests stout arm inter-
posed to hold her back, but it was
not needed.
-you-yo-" Her voice,
starting in furious Shrek, died
away in muttering which came
from a sadly twisted face as she
fell forward.
DR.. Paul was at Chief Forests
side, as he caught the slight figure.
GENTLY they laid her on one of the
davenports. All else was forgotten
IN the sudden attack which had
overwhelmed her.

He stopped, but we all knew
what he meant as we'll as if he
had finished his statement
DR.. Paul agreed regretfully. Il
know. I shall never forgive myself
for not doing SO. But, at the time,
I thought I was doing the wisest
thing" His greenish-gray eyes
looked sadly across at Neal.
"Now, Miss Gordon" Lancy
again addressed me. "You haven't
answered my question. What were
you doing ten miles the other side
Of Winnetaumet? 2"
II lost my" Before 1 could fin
ish my sentence I was stopped by
the sound of q hastily suppressed
smoker from Rhoda.
Duncan's amused voice spoke
promptly in my behalf. Captain
Eancy," he said, please don't mis-
understand Miss Dutton's ill-timed
Laughter. 1t really is funny, al
though this is not the time for
jokes. Miss Gordon can't drive an
automobile five miles on a straight
road without getting lost. We, Miss
button and I, carefully marked her
route on her road map before we
left Albany, yet we were so sure
that she would get lost that when
she told of her trip at the table
last night without mentioning los
ing her way, we were both sur
prised." He turned to me. "Why
didn't you tell us you got lost ?"
Because I'm sick and tired Of
being kidded about it," I snapped.
After all, it's my car and I'm do
ing the driving. If I want to get
lost, it's my business" And believe
it or not, every one, even Cora
EastOn laughed.
Lancy's voice was much gentler
as he asked: What time did you
leave Albany Miss Gordon? :"
"Six-thirty."
Have you any witnesses to
that ?"
Il have. The garageman deliv-
cred my car to my house that
morning. Also the janitor carried
down my bags. You can ask them"
1 was still mad, and I didn't care
who knew it,
Have you ever been here be-
fore?" Lancy asked next.
NO" I answered, with just the
plain negative. I had never minded
being leased or laughed at before
tonight. But suddenly the old joke
had turned sour.
How did you happen to come
here this year,"
Because l was fool enough to
let Rhoda and Duncan persuade me
into it," I yapped. eff I'd gone to
Shinn Pond camp as I have for
years, I couldn't be suspected of
poisoning and murder and what
mott"
There was brief silence. Then
Josie rose from her seat and came
over to me. sally, DEAR" she said
gently, kneeling down by my side,
mo one suspects you of any of
those things" A SILVER ran
through her slender frame as she
spoke. You are such a comfort
and help, please don't be sorry you
came ?"
I looked into her brown eyes.
They were sad and serious, the
laughter quenched by sorrow and
tragedy. But in them I read a depth
Of friendliness and loyalty which
made me thoroughly ashamed of
myself. I put both arms around
her and held her close.
"I'm not sorry 1 came" I lied
stoutly. I'm sorry 1 am such a
fool" l looked straight over her
head into Lancys steel gray eyes
and thought 1 caught flicker of
sympathy there. ASK me anything
you want to. III answer" I said
recklessly.

it was Josie. Ignoring Captain
Lancy, she cried sharply:
How do you know these
things?"
Coral seemed to shrink at Josie's
question. She threw a glance at
Lancy as though expecting him to
interfere. He did, but not, 1 am
sure, the way she desired.
Answer Miss Peake's question:
he ordered sharply.
II was at the table when Mrs.
Rutherford told about the prowl-
err" she began, land" She hest
tated so long that DR.. Paul spoke
hriskly:
II told her about mother"
Even though you asked us to
keep it a secret?" flung back
Josie.
Meal told Duncan and Rhoda.
Why shouldn't tell Miss Easton ?"
he asked CURLY.
Josie shrugged her shoulders. Il
suppose you should if you wished
to do so. But that doesn't explain
how she knew about my room. Did
you tell her that as we'll and, if so,
how did you know about it 2"
Il didn't know about it until lust
now, so I couldn't tell her" DR..
PauPs voice held an irritable note.
His attitude plainly SAID that he
resented being questioned or criti-
ciZed.
Josie paid him no further atten-
ton. Her eyes glared at Coral as
she Kissed through half closed lips:
so you WERE the one who ran
sacked my room. 1 thought so at
the time. Don't deny it. I know you
did it. Just what did you expect to
find there of interest to you?"
Corals comeback was Just what
one would have expected from her.
She sprang to her feet dramatical-
~. "How dare you accuse me of a
thing like that ?" she stormed. She
flung her arms wide as though call
ing on the world to testify to her
Innocence. why would I ransack
your room? Do you think you are
of that much interest to me ?"
Josie's reply was a master
stroke. Then how did you know
about it?"
The fiat question required a like
ans Ier, and Coral, with heightened
colo. gave it.

afternoon"
What right had you shopping
around, listening to what was be-

L wished we might have heard
Corals answer to that, but Lancy
INTERVIEWED He ignored the pas
sages between Josie and Coral, re-
turning to the story he had Just
heard.
why haven't these things been
told to us ?" His voice was stern as
he scanned each face. AS no one re-
piled, he asked still more insist
emily:
"Why didn't you report the at
tempted poisoning to the police at
once ?"
DR.. Paul explained his reasons
for wishing to keep the matter
quiet on the grounds of his moth
rs health; then added:
Il also thought that if anyone
were trying to bump me off, the
easiest way to catch them was to
lie low and say nothing. Mothers

two are connected. I didn't know

that in some cases your plan would
