A woman named ‘Dawn’ %Ot him on the wire at eleven-fifteen, and was all up in the air because & detective had been to her the after- noon before and asked her a lot of insulting questions concerning Lane's call at her house late last Wednes- day night. She didn't care to men- tion names over the ‘phone. but, of course, it was because Mr. Lane had dined at a certain other house ear- ller. She had told the detective of their little supper and, although Mr. Lane was in no way responsible for the man's having sought her out, ahe hoped he would use what in- fluence _he might have to protect my cong, inspector says It was dress was all that he wanted.

It was more than an hour, however, before he succeeded in ex- tricating himself from the maze of the subway. Then he proceeded along a wide avenue far uptown where very new, very fiimsy looking apartment houses stretched Iin un- broken lines, save for the cross- streets which Intersected them. Be- fore an older, less pretentious build- ing of plain’ red brick, dingy. but preserving a sort of dignity of its own, he paused hesitant. At that moment a man came down the steps || and strode off without a glance at him. He was a man verging on mid- dle age, with a smartly cllpped gray mustache; hig clothes seemed too new and stylish for him to have become || accustomed to them, and his hands were big and red. Geoff gave one quick glance at the departing figure. and then ducked into the vestibule. What did Ma- honey, the private detective whom Newbury had provided for Mrs. Cay- ley, want with the murdered man’ secretary, Willlam Dunn? CHAPTER XVIIL Willlam Dunn Speaks. Geoff found the name he sought on | above | the | a card inserted in a brass plate one of the bells in the row on wall of the vestibule, and pressed the button. Almost im clicked, and he entered the dark, nar- row entrance hall, groping his way to the stairs. All at once, a voice called down to him emphatically through the gloom: “If you have come vack to attempt any further argument it is useless. I am through for all time with the people you represent!” almost ringing Could those firm, tones have emanated from the 1ips of || the meek, self-effacing secretary? Geoff called back in reassuring re- s “It's me, Mr. Dunn, Geoftrey Peters from Sunny Beach. Could I 'see you for a minute?” There came & momentary pause, an audible gasp of surprise, and then Willlam Dunn replied in some con- fusion: “Geoffrey? Why, of course! Come right up! I1—I mistook you for some one who was just here.” Geoff ascended, and near the top of the second flight of stairs he saw the famillar, slender, stoop-shoulder- ed figure, peering over the balustrade, Outlined against the sunset glow, which came through the opened door |/ §| of an apartment behind him, the sec- retary appeared more frail than ever. When he turned toward the: light, in_offering his hand to his guest, the other saw that years seemed to have been added to his prematurely aged face during the two days which had elapsed since they last talked to- gether at the side of the brook “I hope you'll e in on you like this, as they shook hands. business to, ‘specially got no more connection with the folks I The | dlately the door ! he's ever brought to trial? *Tain't likely, though, for Doc Mood's work- n' ou other evidence ‘that starts with ;omda;ng"dh- say “ he tell you what it was?” With the mention of the .m pect’s name Dunn had relaxed, but now he looked quickly at the other.
