The murder connects with the mystery tohich Z rounded Hope; Dirk is that it connects also with a mys- tertous secret stair which GR the Jorises thought had been burned when @ wing of the great Joris house burned years ago. Hope is showing Dirk how to enter the se- eret stair, Chapter 39 MAN NAMED VINES NSTANTLY a pariel of the wall began to move. An opening as tall and wide as the average door disclosed a narrow hall with one small high window. A bed—mattress and.blankets—lay on the floor, an old lantern ana a kerosene stove beside it. A narrow stair went down into blackness. The stair. The secret stair. How had Hope found it? “T’ll tell you everything,” she was saying. “Help me a little more. It wasn’t his fault. Only find him... | if he's down .here.” “And if he’s not?” Dirk asked. “Then he wasn’t badly hurt. He's | gone back ... back to the house | where you found me . .. Twenty- second Street.

His flash showed burnt-out matches scattered amid the moss and fungi on the floor. He followed the passage slowly, moving his light with care. He had come, he judgea, a little more than thirty yards when he encountered other steps, stone like the others, and narrow, leading upward. They were green with moss, and recent mud had been tracked over them. AzLove them was a trip-door, long and narrow, with blackened hinges and ratchets on each side. He thrust the flash into his pocket and went up the steps, pushing with both hands against the cold metal of the door, feeling it yiela and slip gratingly along the ratchets. He emerged into the startit world, feel- ing a vague sense of familiarity with the spot. Yonder was the river, there the railroad, there the stone wall sepa- rating him from Lowrie Wood. In a circle about him, outside an iron fence, were the snow-bowed cedars. He had just ascended from Uncle Pieter’s grave. Dirk descended again into the grave, drew down the bronze door with its warning inscription. He Lad violated that inscription. His childhood dream had come true. But ; there had never been any Uncle Pieter to curse or bless. Uncle Pie- ter’s grave had been - mere door- vay for that respected smuggler, Ancestor Hans Joris. How had Hope found it? Dirk was moving along the pas- sage, and up the stair. He went through the sliding door whose spring from this side was distinctly Hamilton, Le Rasmussin, Neils . F. H. LADD, J.
