She said with a touch of defiant triumph: “I've seen you, toco, when you didn’t know it. I followed you all over the hotel yesterday afternoon, and you didn't know it. But you nearly caught me there at the door of 34 It was this girl, then, not the priest.

Then 1 was at the door of the White 8alon. I'laid a cautious hand on the kneb, and holding my re volver before me tried to peer intc the darkness of the room. There was no sound, and it was entirely black. 1 went to the fireplace. My eyes were becoming accustomed to the dark, but I longed for some kind of light. I ¢ould see no closet.

They promised me a fot of money.” . “What good will money do ypu?— Stravsky—can't be brought back.” It was aot as brutal as I thought It might be. She was fully aware that Hfe was still to be lived, and that money was not a bad thing. She said again: . “They promised me a lot of money.” DARED net wait.. I dared not tempt her with the necessary care. “What's your nnma’r' “Elise.” 1 think she’ was rather accustomed to being beaten in life's struggles, for she said it dully. “Tell me at once where they've got Miss Tally. Hurry up.” Probably | bad strengthened what must have been a growing distrust of the Lovschiems. Which fact gave & curious sidelight on her life. She said, watching me: “She’s in the White Salon, 1 sup pose. I was there. Grethe and Lov- schiem pushed me, made me hide— that night.” Elise sald, “Lovschiem”; Lov- schiem, then, was not the man in the courtyard. I said: “What do you mean? inck." She hesitated. “In the fireplace. It's just an old cupboard up above the ledge. I was there this morning when you found the priest.” “What! Did you know the hod)‘ was there?” “No! No! I swear it!” Her wordu burst out in a rapid flood. “1 was In the north wing, and I heard you #nd Sue Tally coming, and 1 hid in the White Salon.

She paused:. “But how did you know.what it was? It can’t be—you don’t know.” She watched me unroll the small thin paper.
