She moved about, preparing to undress. Suddenly she paused, hearing a sound. Once before—standing with Kirk in the hall—she uusu heard that sound, a sound as of some one walking in stockinged feet. Then it had scemed to be in the up- stairs hall. Now it came from the room on the other side of theirs— | Nelly’s room. The marquesa had a way of walking about in her stock- inged feet. Perhaps the sound real- ly came from the marquesa’s room. Juanita cntered the arched pas- {sage. “Marquesa!” she whispered. There was no answer, and she switched on the light. The bed was empty, the bath also. Juanita, who had done no more Ithan take off her wrap, stepped noiselessly into the hall. Nelly’s room did not open into the main hall, but fronted a separate - pas- sage.
