Freddy Mason, whom Brynmor hates, warns Clarice that he will reveal her past to Brynmor if she insists on mar- rying him. Clarice has assisted Mason in several thefts, but Brynmor knows nothing of her alliance with him. In an at- | tempt to get Mason out of the way, Clarice puts police on his trail. The night before the pro- pesed marriage, Brynmor calls his former sweetheart, Mary Lou Leslie. Her new fiance, Tony Titherington, apparently has been lost while flying over Australia, and Brynmor offers sympathy. Mason accosts him as he is about to enter Clarice’s flat a while later, and Brynmor tries in vain to get rid of him. Chapter 23 DISGRACE The last person Brynmor had wanted to see was Freddy Mason. Surely the feliow had sense cnough to know that. Yet what could he do about it under the circumstan- ces? Clarice herself answered the ring. They heard the click-click of the wooden heels of her mulés grow louder as she ran down the corri- dor. She saw Brynmor first. “Oh, Bryn, darling—" she began. Then she caught sight of Freddy Mason, and the color instantly fled from her cheeks For a moment Brynmor thought she was going to t faint. “W-w-why, I dont—" “Of course, it's a surprise to see me,” Mason interposed grimly. He stepped forward through the door- way. Clarice clung limply against fhe door apparently umnable ‘to speak or move. Brynmor somehow felt sorry for her. Why should Mason have taken it into his head to in- trude in this way? He sensed some- thing queer in the air. Sheer curi- osity triumphed over his resolution to keep quiet. “What's the meaning of all this?” he demanded. Mason continued to walk down the corridor toward Clarice’s room. “Come along, Whittamore,” he flung over his shoulder. |“You're going to hear a certain little story that may amuse you. and again it may not”. Terrified, Clarice flung her arms around. Brynmor. “Don't listen to him, Bryn, dar- ling,” she begged hysterically. “Go away, please. Come back later—" Before he tould reply, Mason in- tervened. “It's no use, Clary. He's going to hear it now, straight from the shoulder. If he still wants to mar- Iy you afterward, that's his affair. “Come along,” he added; since neither Brynmor nor Clarice mov- ed. “Let's make ourselves com- fortable. This may be a long sit- ting, you know.” Clarice, her head bowed as if in shame, followed the two men into the living room. Brynmor, await- ing developments, said nothing. | Freddy still smiled with that ma- licious grin. Presently he cleared his throat. “Well, shall 1 bégin?” Clarice fidgeted on the divan. “No, I'll tell him myself,” she said decisively. “After all this is my story.” Her small body, under the flow- ing red dress, was rigid and her white ringed hands were clinched at_her sides. #1'm going to tell you everything Bryn. “I'm not afraid.” She threw & contemptous glance in Mason’s direction, but he ¢ontinued to main- tain an air of indifference. “I'm go- ing to tell you the whole story of my life, right. from the beginning.” Brynmor leaned forward. He said nothing, but his head was| awhirl with questions. What was cause of all this? Clarice hadn't! intimated that there was any rea-| “gon for such a revelation, and he hadn't- pressed her for facts. "« mever had any parents w‘ speak of” she resumed. “I was ught up in the slums—a gutter d. But T had big ideas in my head| and I wanted to do things, become “When I was 15 I got a dancing job in a cheap cabaret in the East End. That's where I met Freddy. He took an interest in me, offered me money for lessons and nice clothes. Well, I took the money. What else could I do? It was that or nothing. “In return, I've been helping him | from time to time.” It seemed dif- ficult for her to continue, but she did so resolutely. “Yes, you may as well know it. Freddy’s a crook. | High class jobs, night clubs and the like are his specialty . . .” Her voice broke off suddenly. Thc‘ horror in Brynmor's eyes seemed to deprive her of speech. Yet she couldn’t see anything very dread- ful in what she’d told him already. The worst part was to come . . . that telephone call last night. As for the rest, she couldn't see that crooks were much different than anyone else. Until recently she had been rather proud of her| association with “Gentleman Fred- dy.” Brynmor had a sinking sénsation. Several times before he had sus- pected that Freddy Mason wasn't on the level, yet the truth shocked him profoundly. And Clarice—it wasn't possible to believe that she had been mixed up with him! Obsessed by a sudden idea, he‘ gtammered, “That night—the rob- bery at the Emerald Dragon?” She nodded, and her lips quiv-! ered. Brynmor felt his head rcel This was awful! He had cxpoctea gomething unpleasant—but nothing like this. Clarice—a thiel. It was unthinkable! “Yes, 1 helped Freddy thnt" she admitted, more calmly now. couldn't avoid doing so. Besides, | 1 didn’t know that you meant to marry me—then. Ever since we've been engaged I haven't done a thing that you might be ashamed of. I—T love you, Bryn. I've always wanted to marry a chap like you, clean, decent, straight—" easy for him—too easy. Now it was anything but easy. He real- ized with a strange sense of self- loathing, that loved Clarice nearly so much as he had imagined. As a matter of fact, Brynmor's thoughts weren't concéntrated on Clarice at the moment. He was thinking especially of his father, of his father's name which was his name, of Whittamore family pride and family tradition. “If I only knew what to do—" he | blurted out. Clarice knew she had lost. ‘tned vainly to smile. w “Don’t worry about it, Bryn. I guess I've known all along that it But I didn’t She : was only infatuation, | care—then.” | He didn't have the heart to re- assure her. Perhaps she was right. {Just now Brynmor wasn't sure of anything. “Please go,” Clarice whispered. “And don't—ever come back.” He stumbled to the door, and IMason opened it for him. “Be good to her, Mason,” he | stammered. A | Freddy smiled. “You never had |a chance, Whittamore. She always was my kid.” The door shut, and Brynmor imade his way down the stairs. {Never had he been so disgraced. “Fool!” he exclaimed to himself. |as long as I live!” (Copyright, 1930, Maysie Greig) Brynmor repents for some of his past actions soon.

She was glad, however, that she had told Brynmor. It was a dis= tinet relief to her. Whatever hap- pened as a result, she was glad that her cards, for once, were face up on the table. Still there was silence. Mason seemed' to be enjoying it. She mut- tered again, half to herself, “I do love you,. Bryn.” And she knew it was true, Brynmor stared down at the pat- tern in the rug. There was per- plexity written on his face. He seemed to be in a daze. ‘““Phere’s something more, too,” Clarice choked. The worst was to come. After that, she felt that nothing could save her. “Last night Freddy came in and we talked. Then, later, after he had gone—" “Leave that part to me, €lary,” Mason broke in. He was smiling triumphantly. “I'll explain the rest ror you. You look all tired out. “You see, Whittamore, last night ‘Clary told me that she couldn't possibly go through with the wed- ding without first telling you about her conneetion with me.

That's it, isn't it dear?” It was obvious that Mason was lying, but Brynmor felt too weak to do anything about it. He buried his face in his hands. For a moment Clarice stared at him. Then she collapsed, threw herself on the couch, and her whole body was wracked by long, shud- dering sobs. When she did glance up, after a |few minutes, Brynmor was stand- ing beside her, staring down at her. His face was wooden and expres- sionless.
