FRIDAY, APRIL 3, 1936. olden by. SYNOPSIS: Morgan Black is a boarder in the house of Miss Ella Lanning, whose family is impres- sive, but whose pocketbook is rather lean. Morgan and Iris Lanning Miss Ella’s beautiful and gifted niece. have come to like each other enough to engage in a kind of cousinly warfare. Now Iris has asked Morgan to open an old trunk in the attic, thinking that she may find something in it that she can ‘make over for herself. And Morgan idty suggests that perhaps the trunk contains a dark mystery. Chapter Seven SURPRISE “NO,” SAID Iris, “it’s labeled, as neatly as Aunt Ella always does, ‘Jean’s other things.’ Of course it may be just mine and Owen's baby clothes.” “Owen?” “I had a brother who died when he was five and I was a year and two months old, about the time Mother died. 1 wish 1 remembered her.” Morgan rose and pulled down his | thick dark blue sweater. “Co Iris, [ll do your Boy Scout deed.’ They gained the enormous attic, smelling delightfully like apples and clothes and dry wood. Mor: lowed Iris across the sounding boards, far back under the eaves till they both had to kneel. Under a “Why, I never had half dozen boxes and a broken rock- er was the trunk. One movement of Morgan’s strong brown bands wrenched the hii off and Iris dipped avidly in, lift- ing out a large tissue-paper wrapped bundle that lay by alarge flat green pasteboar! box. She opened it. “A doll!” she said. “A big beauti- ful French doll, perfectly new! Why, | 1 never had her, | swear I never did!” “That’s queer. Try the box,” Mor- gan said. She opened it. “This is queerer still. it m be my dress. But it’s never been worn, either—none of these things have.” She tossed them over. Exquisitely made, of exquisite material, the trunk beld the summer and winter wardrobes of a girl from two to five years old. “I know | never had them,” she said again, bev ed, and dug deeper.

Your mother left your father, and took both of you. She went to that creature, her sister. We got you back; they hadn’t any money then, they couldn't fight. Your father didn’t want you told. So of course I | didn’t tell you.” “You've done this to me all these years | thought you loved me!” Iris said passionately. “I've loved and trusted you and Uncle William; and you've kept me from knowing I had a brother, you kept me from my ing the truth?” | “You can look in my scrapbook.
