Lester, cngaged to Hallie, rofuces her request to break their cngagement. Because Hal- Jic's presence helps Grannock, kept in ignorance of the situation with consent of Dr. Lytton, his physician. Rose Conaldine whose guardian, a New York lawyer named Perle, refuses to tell her of her origin, sceks the aid of Howard Leck- ctt, private detective. Perle, lcarning of this, suddenly in- forms Rosc she is heiress to a $50,000 a year incom:. Hallic, who also is an orphan, learns from Mrs. Bartholomew, a fricnd of her dead aunt, that her real name also is Rose Cenaldine, and her father was a suspected murderer who never was caught. She is know by this name to Grannock. Lester threatens to tell Grannock that Hallie is the nurse who blinded him unlecs she marries him.

He rubbed his hands nervous- 1y together. “You're to be married in three weeks then—that’s set- tled s settled in this sense—that 1 still don't feel I ought to marry at all and that she—Rose—abso- lutely refuses to budge from my side until T can live a tolerable life without her. Well, what am I to say to her? What is a tolerable life to a blind man? And if I could see—would life even then be toler- able without her? . . . I'd like to believe that she's getting her own way because the puzzle is beyond me but, to be honest, I haven't real- ly tackled it. I'm afraid of it. And while I'm busy dodging it, she’s simply settling everything.” “I see,” said Lytton. “I heard from Lester this morn- ing,” said Grannock. The doctor stared “I had a wire yesterday,” went on Grannock with careful quiet. “His letter confirms it. He has ar- ranged to marry Nurse Ellesmore within the next few days and to take her abroad. After that, he wants to sell this place and settle down in New York.” “He never liked Southcliff” said Lytton, for the sake of saying gomething—anything. “No. It was mother who loved him down she THE ROSE ‘ROY%IYCKERS!I IN THE DARK | “Your brother felt that the Elles- {more girl had a claim on him |Dr. Lytton had found a temporary| solution of the situation by thinl ing of Nurse Ellesmore' and R Conaldine as two separate peop! | “He did; and I was bound |agree with him.

When I exclaimed, she said she'd \confused the two.” “She's a fool. “They aren't alike, are they? I don't know why it should have come as such a shock to believe hat they are even of the same type.” “There isn't a shadow of resem- blance between them,” lied the doc- tor heftily. “As for eyebrows or whatever it is, you can take it from me that damn’ few people have got perfectly level eyebrows. You haven't. I haven't. Your brother has one of the very few symmetrical faces I've seen and that's one of the reasons I don't like it.” “You were always'a little down on Lester,” grinned Lester's broth- er. “Very likely. And talking of faces, told man, just let me see if the 'swellmg of yours is gone yet.” He plunged into a discussion of Grannock’s general health and kept at it until Hallle was again visible between the trees. “I'm here again, Saxely,” she| called, and Lytton recognized this as an agreed signal which would re- lieve Grannock of speculating on her nearness. “I find I've left some things at Mrs, Bartholomew's. Will you give me a lift there, Doctor Lytton?” “With pleasure.” “Nurse Casey will be back from her walk soo nand, in any case, Saxely likes a little time to him- {self, occasionally.” Her hand was on Grannock’s shoulder and Lytton saw him carry it to his lips. Then, instead of releasing it, Grannock felt it with his other hand. “I must learn this business, next,” ' rCup',\'rlght, 1930, by THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, THE HECK T WONT!
