Chapter Two DANGEROUS JOB ‘HE sight of fis old officer eent a warm glow through Curt. Dur- ing those seven years with the Police, Marlin had been his fine triend, a kind of second father to him, His engagement to Rosalie seemed a fitting climax to the un- deratanding friendship between her father and himself, “It's mighty good to see you again, 1” Marlin greeted, with a strong ndclasp. “You're looking as fit as @ high-power rifle! The North must have agreed with you tremendously, Curt.” Rosalie fitted tot, the next room to dress. As the two ebatted for a few moments tn the casual way of men who once had been very close to each other but had drifted apart, Marlin studied Curt searchingly. ‘A year ago, when Curt Tennyson resigned from the Mounted, he had been & éick man, not so much phys- ae ft TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1933. VALLEY itfiaan Byron Mo the Mounted without ever having a dime ahead or the pleasures that other young men had; and his year down north had been the first sunlit period in his whole life. His affection for Curt, his broad human sympathy, prompted him to say nothing about this other mat- ter. But necessity, left him no choice. Last. September a big case had burst upon the Vancouver di- vision, their biggest since the war, and the’ worst failure in their his- tory. The Silent Squad had worked on it all winter; he bad worked on it himself, the Commissioner had sent two specials from Ottawa; but no- body had got anywhere with it. When he thought of the brilliant jobs that young Tennyson used to turn in, of his uncanny skill, of how they all used to depénd on him in hopeless cases, he felt that Curt stood at least a chance on this search, where the others had long since thrown up their hands and quit. “QC URT”—he glanced around and lowered his voice, and then plunged directly into the business— “what I-wanted to see you about is this: Oyer at Vancouver there was @ man called Farrell, a speculator and promoter of the shady type. He “How did you get this data?” asked Marlin. in spirit’ As bead of In- ince for the western divisions, he had led a hard life, fraternizing with gapgster circles, following trails to European capitals, anc liv. ing for months with the narcotic traffickers on the west coast. Three years of that work usually put @ man on the rocks; but Tenny- son had been in daily contact with it, and the very worst of it, for seven years, Besides nearly wrecking his health, it had distorted his whole outlook. He had seen so much of erime, he had looked down into depths of depravity so long and so steadily, that he had lost faith in human Virtues. “Thank God, you've come, out of it, sont” Marlin thought, fervently. For he saw that Curt had completely shaken off that miasma. A year in the far North prospecting, flying, hunting the gray phantom packs, had put him fn shape again. “Haven't had breakfast, Curt?” he asked. “Neither have |.

The ice is out now, and the summer ip that country i¢ so short that every day counts.” Marlin said nothing more just then. They went down to the break- fast room, found a window table to themselves, When the waiter had brought thefr coffee and taken their order, Marlin dropped a lump of sugar into his cup and thoughtfully watched the bubbles come up. He could see that Curt was eager about the Consolidated job, and for several reasons he hated to break into those plans As he wel! knew, Curt's boyhood on that bleak Mani. tobe farm had been harsh and ex's- geat; he had given seven years to IN WITH TURTLE The schooner Angeline C, Nun- an arrived yesterday afternoon from Grand Cayman, and is an- chored in the slip off the Thomp- son Fish Company wharf.

During the Soviet Revolution in '17 he got out of Rue- sia and» went to—to—” Marlin reached into his pocket for the docu- ment—"“and went to" “Germany,” Curt supplied lacon- ically. He had glanced up with sud- den interest at the mention of Karakhan’s name. Now he smiled at A-K’s sudden start. “In Berlin, in 1920," he went on, coolly taking the story away from Marlin, “Karakban had a hand in that Engelmeyer money-printing scandal. In Paris he swindled his fellowémigrés on a confidence game and then cleared out for Buenos Aires—” “Wait a minute!” A-K gasped. “Why, you must know the man! Where—when—how under heaven did you get this data on him?” “Brom the Justice Department of the States. I used to trade informa- tion with them.” Marlin ‘Iéaned back, looked at Curt with amazed eyes. “Welll I thought | wag pulling sonfething out of the bag ghat’d Bethew' td you, and then you begin telling me things about itty D'you know what: Harak- han did in the, Argentine?” he de- manded, as though he expected to ump Curt, “Yes, I know, A-K. And I know what he did afterward, too. The League of Nations investigators got too hot after him, so he skipped north to Mexico and ran whisky to Los Angeles. The States nicked him for two schooners, and he came on to Vancouver. I was keeping tab on him there when I burned out and re signed.” Marlin did not speak till the waft. er had refilled their water glasses and withdrawn. Then: “I've got a departmental report on him here, but there’s no use showing it to you; you know as much about him al- ready as our men who've worked nine months on the case.” “Let me see it.” Marlin handed over a ten-page dossier.
