But her aunt was not to be constrained and demanded detail Realizing it would only excite further suspicion if she did not domply, Anne sketched a liv cavefully edited account of her ad- vénture in the woods, but made 16 mention of Glenn. When she had finished, Doug: who was sitting immediately opy ¢ite, looked up, the knowing smi still curling his lips. “But she hasn't told you the most intere ing part of the story,” he declared. d¥ou've no idea what an cxcellent doetor she had!” There was a moment's sience, then, “Doctor—who's been having a doctor?” Mrs. Wilmot was a trifle Mard of hearing, but she felt the grdden acute tension in the air Morse had glanced quickly at Anae whose eyes were fixed un- waver on Douglas. “It E the merest Douglas went with every ap- péarance of ingenuous good hu- mor, his gaze meeting Anne’s stead- fly, “I was out for a few hours’ shooting this ~afternoon, and I stuimbled on the most romantic| little scene imaginable.

Anne and her aunt were left alohe—facing each other in a-ter- rible sort of silence, worse than any speech. “'Mrs. Wilmot was the first fo speak. “I knew all along—if there (for the death of Timothy Rogers:| wds another man within a hundred mifles—you would ruin everything.” “Anhe merely bent hey head— without miaking any answer at all.
