Gypsy Weather By MARGARET BELL fects SYNOPSIS: Slowly, detail by de= tail, the mystery which has sur- rounded Hope Devine from the night she married Rupert Joris after an hour's acquaintance, to the moment Rupert was shot in her own room by her own brother, is being cleared up. Hope herself is explaining, and the man listening is Dirk Joris, Rupert’s younger brother, who has never been able to get Hope out of his mind since he first saw her riding a black horse in a tent show in New Jersey. Chapter 41 BADGER GAME “PR ODDIE was no angel, but he hadn’t been like this,” Hope went on. “That tequila that Torro- bip sold made him wild. “Torrobin wasn’t selling it now. He was hiding.

When Leonor with her eyes and her Span- i-h accent walked into office one morning, selling calend. he knew that his hour had come. “It was more than a matter of cal- endars with him. But Leonor was young. She was demure and shy. America was so very strange, she said. He had to do a lot of persuad- ing, but she finally got him to cross the Hudson River with her and they went to a New York hotel.

I told her I would pay back the money. “She felt that thir was a cruel and a heartless letter. She wrote me afterwards that it was. But I did pay back the money, though not till ~ I had married Rupert. “Torrobin had taken Bowie with them. He had certain plans for Bowie and Roddie. “The firy thing he did after that fight he hadwith Roddie was to take Roddie’s gun away. Roddie bought himself another before he left Texas ... the pearl-hardled one; and I took that. I was always afraid he would kill Torrobin. “"FORROBIN was wise to bring Bowie. Bowie made money. Bowie and Roddie together. They were with a big show at first, but it went down to Texas for the winter. Then they got odd jobs in smaller shows, in and around New York. Merritt’s was one of them. “Then Leonor, the equestrienne who was billed as ‘Firefly,’ took French-leave of Merritt's show, and ‘when Roddie told me about it I went over without saying anything to Torrobin, and got Mr. Merritt to give me the place. “It worked like m: for the moment.
