Tl hiave to get on 'bout my business He paused as the sound of a motor, whirring up the driveway, came to thiem through the open front doors. Mrs. Cayley glanced towurd them, then rose with a low exclamation of warning. “It is Miss Sherwood with Mr. Mid- | @icton! Not a word before them of what you have just learned from Jlenry upstairs!” She hurried forward, and the at- torney followed, while Dr. Hood drew his deputy determinedly aside. “Look here, Geoff, you're not going off on any more buslness of your own connected with this case unless you toll me about it first. I've had enough of this! You've uncovered & lot of dirt that'll have to be scattered to the four winds, but as far as I'm con- cerned that’s all you have brought to Jight. Who killed Benkard, anyway? Iho knew or suspected, besides old Jienry, that he was the prime mover in that embezziement and shot young Shirley to prevent exposure?” Before Geoff could reply f quick, buoyant footatep came up beh'nd him and a hand feil upon his shoulder. “iTello, Geoff! 1 thought you were working in Long Island City, while our house ig going to rack and ruin!

New- bury asked. *“Does he admit in so many words that he i3 gullty? “UGuilty " Geoff repeated. ‘Yes, it's all kinder mixed-up to me; he speaks o his ‘crime; and he killed himseif because he thought the po- lice was after him, but th wasn't, He knew the man from O'Hare's, o' vourse, and he spotted two plain lothes fellers that headquarters In New York loaned -to Dr. Hood, but they went to see him ‘bout some- else. After that first talk with Lim, the doc told me to keep an eve on Dunn while I was workiu' round, and try to make friends with him. 1 did, and then I saw him in the city, ‘and I reckon at the last a feller wants somebody to write to, =0 he picked me out, sayin’ he hadn't no friend or relation left in the world. It's funny, but he don't seem to have been scared. none that he would a-got convicted in the first degree even if he was caught; it was the idee o' goin' to prison that he couldn’t face.” “I really find it difficult to beliove of him, he alway ppeared to be such_a weak, spineless creature; but as Mrs. Cayley remarked before about the writer of those letters, he must indeed have been mad,” the at- torney observed as the doctor reap- peared. “‘Does’ he allege any mo- tive? Some idea must have existed in that warped brain of his.' “It did” Geoff allowed his gaze to wander meaningly toward Vera hervrood and Middieton. “He'd been kinder nurein’ a grudge he thought he had agin Mr. Benkard till it got s0 big to him he couldn’t think o' nothin’ else, sesms ltka” “We have intruded long enough, and it is time for me to take Miss Sherwood home.” Adrian Middleton turned to their hostess. ‘My dear Mrs. Cavley, you know that we will walt eageriy for the details and share in your rellef when the whole hor- rible matter is thoroughly invest! gated and permitted to drop If my sister can be of any service what- ever—17" “Do you want me to stay here with | you for a day or two, Mrs. Cayley?" Vera Sherwood asked. “I will be glad to do anything I can, you knosw that.” “Fhank you, my dear, but I really think I shall ba better alone. This news is a shock, of course, but the reaction will pass, and at least the horrible suspense is at an end.” Geoff responded to the doctor's im- perative tug at his arm as the vis- itors were taking their leave, and walked with him to the terrace doors. “Why didn’t you tell me this at once, when you got back?’ demanded the latter. ' “Why was it necessary for us to get Old Henry's story first: It didn’t have any direct bearing on the murder,-after al “I figure it did,” Geoff replied. “Dunn was kinder a lonely cuss ali his_life not beln’ the sociable kind to mix much with folks, but the fow friends he did make ho thought a sight o', and young Shirley was closer to him than most anybody, though he didn’t give away his association with Benkard. That only got whispered ‘round after his death, and I think Dunn didn't take much stock in it till he got all tied up with Benkard himself later and couldn’t git free, not while Benkard lived. We'd better be gittin’ ‘long now to wait at your house for a message from headquar- ters and then over to the county seat. X s'pose the district attorney is walt- ing, if you talked to him. Did you git Lyons or Allen?" “Lyons. He sald he'd hurry up to Dunn’s piace in a charge of everything. Dunn wrote you?” “Just a ramblin’ kind o’ explana- tlon without no actual reference to the murder, but it's plain if you read between the lines. I suspicioned the truth right along, but I couldn't fas- ten a tning on him. If Benkard could a-used Shirley the way he did Dunn he wouldn’t a-shot him, but he must have seen the boy was too high- spirited to be made no tool of. Dunn guessed the truth after he went to work for Benkard. I knew that when 1 seen him in his rooms last week, for he never once spoke 'bout Shir- ley's suicide, but called it his ‘death, and 1 could tell from his eyes how he hated Benkard, as I'd thought be- fore.
