By long d | neck speed over the new-cut private road, made him hasten to the drive- way. A stout man of perhaps fifty sat behind the wheol. "Beside him was & younger man as lean and lanky as the mason himself, but clad in the blue and brass of & metropolitan police lieutenant, a uniform which seemed, as he clambered down, to clothe his awkward frame with al- most ludicrous incongruity. “Hey. Geoft Peters!” 'He bustled forward officiously. ' “What's been goin' on here—mus “Stopped by At the station house for Zeke Foster,” explained the stout man as he shut off the engine. “Thought from what ln; Cayley said that he'd e neede ou got my message.

She inferms him of the tragedy and he promises to come to the howse at once. Later she encounters Geoff Peters, upon whom the coroner is depending. (Continued from Yesterday's Star.) “Dr. Hood will be here at any ‘moment now,” she informed him. “He Wants you to wait here to see him.” Geoff nodded. T1l be right outside, Mis" Cayley, and likely to see him comin'," he re- Mrs. Dlied. Passing on to her own room, Cayley was on the point of entering when her daughter's door, further down the gallery, flew open and Mil- dred appsared upon the threshold. She had dressed in evident haste, and her small, white face quivered with fear. “Mother, what is 1t? I will know the truth! Vera has gone back to her own room to dress. but she told me Uncle Joe was ill and neither you nor_he wanted me to go down- stairs. What does it mean”™ Mra. Cayley slowly approached her daughter, but did not touch her. In- stead. she looked steadily down into the violet-blue eves ralsed to her own and spoke in a low, clear tone strangely devold of any natural tenderness. |_“I have tried all your life to teach 'you self-control, Mildred, and the time ihas come for you to exert it. Your uncle is dead.” The girl's whole slender body quivered as if it were under the stroke of a lash, and she caught her breath in little gasp. “I felt it she whispered. “I knew that something dreadful had come! Mother, how did he die?" “Look over the ralling down into the patio and you will sec.” There seemed to be almost caiculated cruelty in the coldness of the older woman's _ tone. “Remember, no scenes! We do not know who is re- sponsible for your uncie's death, but in any event there will be endles questioning. hideous notorfety. The medical examiner—a representative o the police—is coming. and so is Stone- ham Lane; I have sent for him." Why?' Mildred stiffened and emed to grow inches tailer as she | drew herself up under the stern, co manding gaze bent upon her. “Wha 18 he to ue?" Low as it was, her voice rang with an open deflance that was like a declaration of warfare. and for a mo- ment the two strange antagonists mother and daughter. faced each {other in silence. Then Mrs. Cayley replied with sudden suavity: | “Our oldest and closest family i triend. He will take charge jeverything for us. Bear that | mind, my child, when he arrives. I} {will not reproach you now for vou: | past attitude: you know, of course, in uncle's death has rendered it in- evitable that his last wishes shali from the body?" Geoff nodded. ‘Got the place all ‘round where it was found roped off, Doc,” he drawled. Reckon I was the first to see it after the oid butler and the hired Eirl, and nefther of them would have gone igh it for their lives. It's right inside the terrace doors.” He turned to lead the way around the house, but’ Zeke Foster hurried ahead, and Dr. Hood laid a detaining hand on the mason's arm. “Geoff, you've been working here pretty regular since before the fam- ily moved down from the city and you see a lot more than most folks Eive vou credit for. I'll want to talk to you about them later, but wha this look like to you?" “T aim to 'tend to my own affairs, Doc.” Geoff shook his head. “You better make up your own mind when you see what's happened to Mr. Ben- kard. 1f a man could smash the back of his own head in and go off and hide the weapon somewhere, and then come back and lay down anfl die right In front of whers he'd been settin’, I'd say it might be suicide. but otherwise I ain't offertn’ o opin- on.” “Humph!™ the doctor ejaculated. ‘So that was the way of it! It's a £00d thing you thought to rope off the space ull around it, in case of foot- prints. Something like the hint of a grin appeared for a moment at the corners of the mason's wide mouth, but he made no rejoinder, and as they reached the terrace doors he silently pointed within. Zeke Foster was staring open- mouthed at-the body, but the doctor after one swift glance at it turned to Geoff. “Give me a couple of those boards there from that pile you'se been using for your concrete work.” he directed. I'm golng to protect the loose san on the floor from the mark of an. other footstep.—Stand aside, Zeke The lately appointed police Me: tenant obeyed with a surly alr.

She glanced meaningly toward the room occupied by their guest, Vera Sherwood, and. turning, vanished within her own door. Let alone, the young girl took one tentalive step oward the railing of the gallery as 1t to follow her mother's call given advice and look down for h self at the scene which. from wher she stood, would be within her line of vision. But the mext moment, with a little shiver, she covercd her face with her hands and fled back into her own reom. Meanwhile, Geoff Peters had lin {gered at the ‘stairs’ head until he saw Letty emerge from below. Then he had hurried out to the terrace, where he busied himself gathering up the loose sectlons of board and scattered implements left from his work of the previous day until the rattle of an ancient_car,_apbroa MOVING, PACKING & STORAGE Continued. —FATIONAL, A s MOVING C North R545.

He's the but- er, and he was struck all of a heap oy findin’ the body." Zeke departed upon his errand, and th. medical examiner proceeded to make a path about the bench wita the pleces of board which Geoff hand- ed him, laying each one painstakingly on a smooth space of sand, unmarred by the slightest touch. When he had completed the semi-circle to the other ]side of the terrace doors, he worked his way back slowly upon his plump hands and knees, scrutinizing the space on efther side of his impro- vised path. Then he rose and stood staring about the patio, while i companlon watched him With a twl kle of rather grim amusement in his mild brown eves. “Geoff, come here a minute” Dr. Hood led him abruptiy out on the terrace. “Who've vou seen around here besides Mrs. Cayley and her daughter and the hired help?” “Only fhe young lady_that's visitin' them and a friend o' Mr. Benkard Wwho runs out now and agaln from the city—Lane, his name is—and that young feller from Asheroft, who comes to see Miss Cayley." He In- dicated a neighboring estate, tho tail. ornate chimneys of which showed above the trees to the west. “There's Mr. Benkard's sec'tary, too. but I aln't seen him lately.” ‘And the only servants are the cook and the housemaid and that dod- dering old butler” the doctor per- sisted. “That's all. The garage ain't fin- ished yet, and Mr. Benkard driv_his own car and kept It at Jake's servics station down to the cove.
