firmly. Goodnight
STEPS TO DOOR
He walked slowly up the
front walk. strangely shaken
by the grim old house, and
reluctant to intrude. He was
doubtful of his welcome, but
tangled the bell determinedly.
Instantly he heard quick steps
within, and a light snapped on.
The next moment the door
swung open.

criSply. May l come NJ"

She led the way into a huge,
chilly, empty room. and said
drlly: (Which window sill do

He certainly did not mind.
The kitchen, by comparison,

asked, without any attempt at
