Winston, as befitted one of the
WealthieSt peers in England, one
whose ancestry trailed back to the
! Conqueror and into the miStS of
Norman history, possessed many
castles and manor houses, one of the
most pretentious of which was the
huge stone building that was his
London residence. Built as strongly
as any castle, it dominated the sec
tion of the city in which it was
| situated
Promises to Help.
Adam Warburton. as he entered
the wide courtyard of Winston
Manor, was not unaware of the peril
he was inviting by seeking an inter-
view with the marquis. There was
the possibility that Montjoie had ar
rived first and that the house WIS
already a waiting trap; then. too,
there was the chance that John
Carewe, in a desperate attempt to
Illustrate him, had joined the race
to reach the ear of his lordship. But
Warburton believed that he was
ahead of both Carewe and Montjoie.
1t would have been impossible for
his two enemies to have bested the
killing speed with which he had
ended the journey to London.
He was going alone into the lions
jaws. Molly Vance had begged that
she be allowed to accompany him,

Winston. 1t will then be up to you

A Likely Story.
The answer was speedy. "The
marquis will see you," said the door
man, after leaving him in the hall
few minutes.
The marquis, himself clad in dark
blue velvet with a white collar, stood
with his back to log fire. He was

Firemen Check Fitness
OF Emergency Volunteers

Several hundred volunteers TO
serve as emergency firemen in case
of disaster reported to firehouses in
the vicinity of their homes last
week for personal interviews with
ranking firemen to determine their
fitness.
Fire Chief Stephen T. Porter sent
out enrolment instructions last
Monday to about 1000 civilians who
had registered with the Volunteer
Service Committee of the District
Defense Council for duty in case of
air raids or sabotage The volun-
teerS were asked to report to the
firehouse nearest their homes at
their earliest convenience.
Chief Porter hopes to provide a
nucleus of about 900 volunteers
from the list of 1000 to serve as
the first emergency unit. He said
yesterday that several hundred men
reported last week, and most of
them were enrolled following per-

Adam Warburton had seen Arthur
Vance, that strange man who walked
alone. He had glimpsed something
of the terrible resolution that over
came the handicap of sightless eyes.
And now after 20 heartbreaking
years-he was winning through to
reckoning with Black George.

His Lordship slapped him across

The blood from his bruised lips
was salty in Warburton's mouth;
his arms were held taut by strong
men; the sharp point of a pike
rested in the small of his back; yet
he strove to carry on his shattered
masquerade. "Montjoie-"
"And end to pretense, Warbur-
ton," interrupted the Marquis. Il
have been warned of your coming.
Where is the rest of your party
John Carewe, that girl and her
servant?"
Warburton did not answer. If
Winston had been forewarned,
whence had his knowledge come?
1t could not have been from Mont
joie and the marquis own words
had eliminated CareWe. Remained
only one other source-Underhill
the keeper of the Inn of King Ed
ward.
You cannot save them by silence"
said Winston. IF they are in Lon

the full red lips of sensualist.
In those lips Warburton read the
character of the man who, with
everything to choose from, had de-
liberately embarked upon a life OF
crime. The marquis was the COM
plete voluptuary; one who delighted
in everything that appealed to the
senses.
You come from Montjoie?" asked
Lord Winston His eyelids, War
burton noted, dropped slightly, as
though to screen strange thoughts
within. Where has the rascal been
for the last year?"
I'm prison" said Warburton. II
have been with him."
And why should a man in Jail
send stranger to me?"
I'VE escaped together from New
gate; we both are fugitiveS and will
be back in Jail if we remain in
England. Before we became sep
arated, Montjoie remarked that he
would be able to reach France if
he could gain the presence of the
Marquis of Winston I am sore
pressed by the authorities, my lord
and I have presumed to seek the
same sanctuary"
How do you suppose I might be
able to help you?"
"I am only acting on the hint
dropped by Bartho. Indeed, I ex-
pected to find him here"
Il see" Winston nodded his head
slowly. Then he stepped to a side
of the fireplace, grasped tasseled
bell rope and pulled it. That is a
very pretty story. Adam Warburton," "
he remarked dryly.
A Sudden Surprise.
Warburton felt the hair on his
neck stir. He had not voiced his
name Yet Winston was aware of
his identity.

quick-moving men, all carrying
weapons. They came from all sides,
