He had a very good position for so young a man—Larry could not have heen more than twenty-five at the time of his death—and, of course, he was keeping his speculations on the market strictly under cover. For a month or so after 1 took the rooms across the hall from his we had mere- J¥ a nodding acquaintance. but I often wondered about the good-iooking boy, with a smile always on his lips, who lived as staid and methodical an existence as any confirmed old bache- lor. He had a reckless, devil-may- care air about him and a light in h oves that boded danger if he ever cut loose, and vet he apparently had no vices. no_desire for any sort of dissipation. There were never any wwild parties in his rooms and he kept regular hours, coming in quietly. at night and going out about the same time as L did in the morning.” Dunn was still pacing the floor, but more siowly, and_a retrospective note had crept’ into his tones. “Cne evening, in June, I met with a_slight| tuxicab accident and he heard them helping me into my rooms—the door- man and elevator boy.

Not where he . from, nor what his folks had been Tike, ‘even if they was all dead?’ “They had been gentlefolk, Geoffrey. one could see that’ his host re sponded as he turned once more. “T noticed when I first met/ him that he had s soft but pronounced southern accent, and now and then he told me some iittle anecdote handed down in his family which showed they must have been pretty big people even back in the days before the civil war. It wasn't until late summer that he told me about the girl, and then I realized why he lived such a quiet, clean life and the disslpation of the city could have no attraction for him “What girl?’ Geoff sat up straight. “The one he hoped to marry. He showed me her photograph, too, but I can only recall that she was very tall and blonde and beautiful, though rather proud and disda nful looking, it you know what 1 mean Geoft nodded. “T've seen 'em, like the earth wasn't ®ood 'nough for 'em to walk on. Did he tell you her name?’ “1 think he mentioned it, but I can scarcely remember—l1 think it was Katherine,” Dunn replied uncertain- ly. “She llved in his home town in Virginia and they had grown up to- gether. He wasn't altogether happy, theugh, when he talked about her gnd cspeciaily when he looked at her pic- ture, and I could see there was some sort of a cloud between them. He never told me in so many words, but 1 gathered that her people had had a great deal of money and then met with reverses and she wasn't taking it very graclously.” “What was his _home town? Kin you recollect, Mr. Dunn?" ~Geoft was heginning to grow restless under the Tong-drawn-out story, but he was careful not to show it for fear that +he shy, diffident mwan would retire fnto his shell again. “Helford, or Beverle: something like th only mentioned it on pay much attention; I, know I tried to recall it after his death and couldn’t. It was about that time— Jate summer—that I began to suspect lis secret interest in the stock market and "to_wonder if he were speculating. He knew, of course, that 1 was a broker, and his ques. tions showed that he was following the quotations pretty closely for an outsider. 1 wasn't sure, though, until the orash came.” ‘A4 he ever speak o' Mr. Benkard?

That bond covered al- most a third of the missing money after his death. “During September 1 saw less and less of my young friend, but I was engrossed in my own affairs. I spe- clalized in a different fleld and did | not pay much attention to the metals market, but toward the end of the month' every one knew there was something blg in the wind in regard to Consolidated Lead. It was borne |in upon me then, too, how harassed and strained Larry was looking when we did run into each other, and it occurred to me that he was rather avoiding me. | “Well, the crash came, and with it Larry's last attempt to bring him- iself to confide in me wholly—If he nly had!

I | thouseht “at a Grst glance that he must have been inking to excess— a thing which he'd never done since o met—but then I saw it was some- thing else, something very like desperation. He told me almost de- | flantly that he had lost $45,000 of his capital, he had staked those safe vestments of his and plunged on lead. He never said a word against Benkard nor intimated that it was by his advice he had done this, and when 1 started to preach to him like hypocrite about speculating—I, who had the fover of It In me to the mar- {row of my bones:—he told me that he had to have a certain large sum of money by a certain time; that was why he had brought all pital to New York. He didn't care about speculation. the exchange had no more attraction for him than an ordinary gambling house, but it was the only chduce for him to realize his ambition He wouldn't tell me the motive back of it, though.’ “When he saw how seriously T had tuken his disclosure T think he re- “retted having come to me. He laughed and clapped me on the shoulder aud teld me not te worry about him, that he wasn't wiped out, a long shot, but he'd be mighty careful before he was burnt again in the same fire. had only suspected the truth he mizht still have been saved! But 1 was going through a ! critical period of my own in_ the i sial game that autumn, and when | and I did get together—which { wasn't often—he had changed, grown | quicter, more repressed. Like a fool, T took it that his losses had steadied | him and was glad of it! “He lived just as he had_ before, well within his salary, and of course I could not guess he hadn't a penny in the world now except that. He talked speciously of other real estate and first mortgage investments to deliberately blind me. He was too | proud to have me know the truth about himself, to say nothing of what as missing from his firm's accounts. Larry told me he was golng away for the Christmas holidays, and al- though I fancied 1 heard some one moving about in his rooms T didn't investigate. It developed later that he spent them there alone; he must have been facing the immediate future, when concealment would no longer be possible, and making up {his mind what to do! ‘I went away myself for a day or two, and when I returned on New | Year's eve he crossed the hall, knock- |ed on my door and asked if I -were going anywhere to celebrate. When T replied that I wasn't, he suggested that we have a little party of our own and see the New Year in to- gether, and 1 accepted. He had some rare old wine and whisky which he'd brought from the south with him and had been saving for such an occa- slon, and he sent out for a little supper and we talked tiil far into the small hours. At the stroke of midnight, however, he rose and raised his glass, and 1 shall never forge: the look in his eves as he sald: ‘To the New Year, and all the happiness it can bring to you! The New Y: and what may come tomorrow William Dunn turned and walked to the end of the room, without speaking, and Geoff did not move. The story had gripped him, and the level, monotonous tones in which ft was told made it all the more vivid and real. His host returned slowly and seated himself once more in his chair, resting his head on -his hand. “That's about all, Geoftrey. Don't mind my running on like this; I haven't spoken of the boy for years and I don't know why I should have riked all this up now. The wretched a | affair belongs to the past and has nothing to do with what brought you here.” “It was real good of you to tell me though, Mr. Dunn, and I'd kinder jike to hear the finish,” Geoff re- sponded. “Do _you recoliect anythin’ else young Shirley said that night?” “No.” Dunn shook his head. “He was . keyed-up, abnormally ~ high- spirited after that, and I laid it to the liquor. though we'd both been | extremely moderate. 1t was very late when I left him, as I said, and I never saw him alive again. 1 pald a round | of calls that afterncon and dined out, | and when I returned at midnight the, | clerk, white and shocked, told me | what' had happened.

' His body was never brought | back, but taken directly from the morgue to an undertaking establish- ment. When' the truth was disclosed about his financial condition and Mr. Benkard came forward with the offer to pay for the funeral expenses, since no relatives of Larry's could be located, a few of us got together and made up a purse. Somehow, even those who had known him only casually couldn't bear to think of him lying in a grave he owed to the man in whose rooms he died. We had an instinctive feeling that Mr. Benkard might have prevented it, but 8o could more than ane of us by using our influence and getting a loan to cover the amount whith was missing from the firm, if the boy had only come to us! That's all there is to the story, Geoffrey, and ft's for- gotten now by almost every one You see, even if it had been made the excuse for the ‘anonymous pers, secution to shake Mr. Benkard's nerve, the writer of the letters must have ‘seen how useless the attempt was and dropped it last fall; it could have no tonnection with the murder. “Reckon ‘it couldn’t, Mr. Dunn, but the docll be glad that much more 18 out from under foot.
