lie went up when We came in
here. Now, Cary?"
During their interchange of
words, Cary evidently decided that
complete frankness was his only
course
ITS a long story" he said, "but
I'll make it as brief as possible"
and he did.
Beginning with his first proposal
to write a book about the Essex
family. he told of Miss Althea's re-
lcntless opposition; of her attempt
to steal ard burn the papers: of
the robbery, with which the chief
was already familiar; Of the
threatening letter which he had re-
ceived: Of the finding of papers
which explained his aunt's opposi-
ton; of his talk with her; Of n
with Horace Rand; Ct Marks
oyerhearing his telephone CONVEX
sation; Of their discussing the pa
pers: and, finally, their quarrel
"If it YER not for grandfather,
I never would have az ID to his
demand that we try to smooth
things over, but it would kill him
to know the rotten story, sol
agreed to see what sort of arrange
ment l could make with Rand.
He had an appointment in
Hyannis which he could not break,
but agreed to be at hand House at
10 o'clock. 1 left here at half past
nine, it takes me Is minutes to
walk a mile, and l wanted to walk
tonight. l a think better when
| I'm walking than when driving a
car and, too, / wanted to stop by
the chauffeur's house. I got to
Rand House just before the clock
struck 10. Rand wasn't there. I
waited until Is minutes past. He
hadn't come then, so I knew he
was giving me a r~un-around, and
1 came home. l didn't hurry; I sat
down on a log beside the path and
thought until I was dizzy, but I
couldn't see my way clear, so I
came home" YEARLY, he shrugged
his shoulders. You know the rest"
What is the story in the pa
pers?"
Cary seemed surprised at the
question.
Didn't you and the papers on
Mark? 1 left them with him.
Thought it was safer than carry
ing them on my person when I
went to see Rand, and I didn't dare
put them in the safe. There was a
bare poss bility that grandded
might take it into his head to come
downstairs and open it While I was
gone"
There no such papers
found on your cousin"
Cary sprang to his feet.
They must be there some
where he said.

dered briefly. And still! struggling
and screaming. Miss Althea was
dragged away.
Cary drew a handkerchief from

| forehead where beads of persplra-

chiefs estimation.
I'VE were just about to talk the
affair ov r when you came in.' the
| chief said. "What-"
But Cary vas in no mood for
quiet discussion.
Tell me first about Mark,
Chief" ne pleaded. Il can't believe
it,"
Its true. I've just come from
him. He vas shot through the head
while sitting at the desk in the H.
brary. That shot was fired on the
terrace and came through the
French door"
Cary sank down again into a
chair and buried his head in his
hands.
Il can't believe it," he said
again. Il can't believe it," He
raised his head; his a%gonized eyes
fixed themselves on the chief
"VVho would kill Mark?" he
muttered. HE didn't have an
enemy in the world"
yet YOU q%uarreled with him."
The words sc softly spoken came
from the man by my side. He was
leaning forward closely cycling
Cary. His face vas determined,
grim. The friendliness l had seer
there a wiped away as if it had
never been.
Cary swung to the new voice.
and Chief Crane said:
Captain Lancy, in charge Of the
case"
Cary nodded and answered the
detectives words, with no show OF
hesitation.
Il did, and for the same reason
I would do so again. But the quar-
rel wasn't a murderous one, anC
when l left here Mark was looking
over some papers at my desk
where he was shot" Agar

Cary froWned
THAT is true. but I didn't shoe
him. Our quarrel vas ended before
l left the house.

questioning.
Again Cary froWned, and thi
