B Chapter 45 THE TOKEN AGAIN AUL'S white cap was bending over a steaming kettle. For a moment the chef didn’t see me, as I was still in the little pas- Fage outside the kitchen and out- side the area of light. ' think, how- ever, as | turned away he caught Just a glimpse of the motion, for I heard behind me a kind of howl, sSomething dropped and’ clattered, and there was a sound of hissing steam. It was not at all difficult to get into the priest's room. I would have liked learning more about the miss- ing token from Sue before I searched that room, but as it devel- oped it was not necessary, and I iwanted, of course, to take advan- itage of the opportunity at once. } For I found the token. Although it was in a large degree ‘accident that I found it. I had ap- proached the heavy window curtains and was drawing them back to get more light in the room when one of my fingers slid somehow through tho thick chenille cords of the enor- mous tassel hanging from the.red rope that controlled the curtains. And in slipping ran upon something that was not soft chenille and was not tassel. NEY GOOGLE AND SPARK. PLUG TO GET HIS MIND OFF THE VIPER The White Cod(aloo by Mignon G. Eberhart’ N I worked very cautiously, there in The chef didn’t see me. the gathering darknmess, pulling at the thing carefully to extract it from the large bell-shaped tassel. It was a jaggedly triangular piece of paper—a thin piece with small ‘print. And the instant my eyes fell on the print I knew I had found Sue's token. It was a torn halt of the chapter about love in first Corinthians. 3 As 1 glanced at the page I saw a word here, a word there, that made "suddenly bits of old and familiar phrases and automatically finished themselves in my mind—*“with the tongues of men and”"—*tinkling ‘cymbal” — “understand df% mys- teries,” and toward the bottom, “face to face; now [ know in part”— “and the greatest of these...” HAT was why Sue had said what she’'d said.” ‘Had. said it so flatly, with such an effect of casual- ness, while she’d watched Francis 8o carefully. And—it recurred to me with sig- nificant force—Francis had not fin- ished her quotation. Had looked faintly puzzled and baffled:' Had, so far as I could see, failed entirely to catch its meaning. The token itself surprised me, for somehow 1 had expected it to be some kind of jewelry—1 don’t know why. It was, however, remarkably efficactous—simple, ‘easily tidden and preserved, and practically im- possible for anyone who discovered its secret to duplicate owing to the necessity for ‘duplicating not only the editioa of the Bible from which the leaf had been torn, but the jag- ged edge-where it was-torn and with whose words the matching half in Francis's possession must exactly colncide. But [ had no time, then, to ‘spec- ulate. “For the - Implications of Francis’s retusal to recognize Sue’s one offer at compromise were im- portant,” He'had elther failed’to recognize it purposely, not desiring 0 do so, thus tacitly conceding Sue’s YES -.

I don't know whether it was some sound or rustle’ or whetlier it was only that strange age-old instin that tells us when eyes are watching us. At any rate, 1 was suddenly aware of ft, and 1 whirled ‘and clutched for Lorn's revolver. The door which I had closed was open. It was open and gently moving | and revealing about six decreasing inches of blackness. 1 flung toward it and was in the corridor, but there was nothing but dim walls and *blank doors to"be seen. . 1 went back into the room, closing' the door firmly. 1 returned to the position where I'd examined the' serap of paper and saw with some dismay that the door itselt was completely visible to me from a mirror opposite: ‘I, ‘then,’'and #he thing I'd held in my hands had been clearly visible from the door. FTER a moment I folded the token and slid it into the little cylindrical chamber where lead is stored in my pencil, and let myselt cadtiously into the corridor.

Lorn’s brown flgure loomed out of the dimness? ¥ “Well,” he said. “Where have you been? You weren't in your room.” “You are the very man 'l want to see,” I said. Mutually conscious that those in the'lounge below eould, in all probability, hear every word, we walked farther back along the cor- ridor. I said in a low voice: “Why did you warn. ‘me about Tally?” ® B He hesitated, and looked uneasily up and down the dim Jength of cor- ridors with their occasional” fatnt glints and intersecting lanes., “I told you I could not yet ex- plain.” “You are goln: too far,” 1 said.’ “But—it doesn’t matter. I'll tell | you. It is that you aren’t gure the , man is Francis Tally.” He said nothing. He'd moved his | head, and his face was now in the shadow. “Hurry up. Answer yes orno.
