That's exactly VIA, ssId-shs
plans TO get married nsx; wednss-

why. she cant DO that" Mr..
Reed said
Plan. Are N.de
well. I don't know about that
she thinks she can. IN. plans are
all made. she's engaged and they
announced the engagement to-
night
Say. listen-who are you, where
are you. and what do you know
about my daughter Mr.. Reed
was gathering his senses together.
My name doesn't matter. I'm
just a friend tipping you off TO
something. Your daughter Is here
in Indianapolis. Right now she's
out at a summer cottage called
Sunset Beach"
II know all about that" Mr..
Reed said.
shes being q social secretary
to a lady by the name Of Mrs.
Jenny Mattson."
That's right" Marjorie's indig-
nation grew as she talked. So
Aunt Jenny was wise TO the girls
deception
Some Doubt
There had always been some
haunting doubt In her mind about
Janet's real identity. but now that
doubt had disappeared.
She began to see how Janet's
ruse might help.
"Can you come out here7 VIII
you come out ?" she asked the
irate man at the other end of the
wire.
You bet I can, and will" he
was saying. That young lady
isn't going to get married without
my permission-that Is. she GER
tsinly isn't going to II she intends
10 inherit any Of my money. I
suppose some bounder wants to
marry her for her money. Well,
I'll see to that.
You can just bet your bottom
dollar I'll come out there and tell
him a thing or two-don't think
| won't. The whole affair sounded
fishy to me In the first place. IL
1t man by the name Of John
Yes, it Is" Marjorie said, sur
prised.
We'll, I thought so. I'll be out
there tomorrow. Don't tell her a
word about 1t, will you? I want
TO step in on this before 1t goes
any farther. You say they plan
the marriage Wednesday?
Yes. Wednesday is the date"
20. X. Don't say a word to
them. I'll be with you tomorrow.
Mr.. Reed hung up the telephone.
He'd put an end to this romance.
he thought to himself grimly.
$50 that young whippersnapper
came out to his place, sized up the
and decided he'd marry a
rich mans daughter? Well, he'd
have another guess coming, he
would"
