He had never come back. Just a few months before the armistice he had been reported missing. “Miss- ing!” “Killed in action” would have been easier to bear. “Missing!” It had hastened her mother’s end. He had never come back. | Bad he come now—like this? Was Roy, her brother whom she had adored and worshipped, a master criminal? She tried to tell herself' it wasn't true. | She bent over the photographs | and compared them critically. There | was a difference in years, of course, but the same distinctive fea- shoulders in a grim little fntsllsncimmx. of tures were there. She was con- vinced the figure in the snapshot was' Roy. Her elbows were on the table| now, her head tightly clasped in her | hands. Granting that it was Roy 4t didn’t mean that he was a hunt- ed criminal, that he was the Big Shot whom Phil Martin was 0 eager to trap. There was some mistake somewhere. And yet why should Shive Frank have singled out an innocent man? And how, unless they had in some way been brought together, would | a photograph of Roy be in the possession of a man of Shive Prank’s stamp? But that was not all. This was a picture of Roy . Therefore Roy was alive. Apparently he had been in America, for at least several years since the war. ‘Why then| had Roy never come home? Why had he never written? Like | a crushed thing her head wem‘ down on her desk and was buried _ in her arms. Her shoulders shook | convulsively. “I don't believe it!” she moaned. | “T will never believe it—never, nev- er, never—until I have found him,! seen him with my own eyes, and— Be himself has told me ft is true!” “®ind him!
