The New Yorkers were, as usual, king of the walk in‘ their own league but in the world se- ries, the Cardinals turned loose such a fast, crippling attack that the Yankees, at the finish. beat- en four garmes to one, were li but stumbling around like cazed sandlotters.

She knew she would get the balance within a year or two. but she hated me and she refused my offer. Then I had a stroke of good luck. I had suspected all | along that there had been some previous affiliation between her and Perry Clarke. but it was not until. the day before she sailed that I learned anything definite. | “I had come to see her to make | a final plea. I walked down the | hall unannounced. They were ' talking in the patio and I heard him say that unless she paid over { one hundred thousand dollars he’d see to it that she got nothing ; at all. He mentioned something about being able to prove it, and Mrs. Clarke said she couldn’t do anything about it until she had returned to the States—I heard that much before a servant ap- peared and they stopped talk- | ing.” | Raeburn picked up two of the photographic prints and began to roll them with one hand. “I went to Clarke the day after | Mrs. Clarke sailed.

She seemed to be un- aware of anyone but Raeburn and the look on her face held Joyce until she saw someone move from the corner of her eye. _ It was Raeburn. He was offer. ing the two remaining photo- graphs to Ward Allen. “Would you like these?” Allen took them. He stood very straight and stiff. and his blond face was colorless, his lips barely moving as he spoke. “Thanks.” “Those clippings made a lot of trouble for you, didn’t they?” Raeburn said. “It’s too bad you didn’t know.” “Know what?” Raeburn backed to the door. “Things have happened since you left. They deported vour friend, the Countess, for one thing. And some of the undesirables have been weeded out of the police department. The truth about that charge against you came out some months ago—not publicly. but most of us knew.” He paused and explained. “Al- len got in with the wrong crowd for a while in Caragua. He ap- parently regretted it later be- cause he broke off with them. They resented it and did what they could to punish him.” Ward Allen stood motionless until it seemed that he did not intend to answer. Finally he said: “Perry Clarke knew the charges had been dropped and yet he—” “He helped—what is the word? —frame you.” ‘Pll Listen’ “VES.” Allen said. He looked at Hestor. “You could have told me the truth, too. You knew I'd been cieared.” Hestor gave no sign that she had heard. Raeburn reached be- hind him for the doorknob, turned it. “I'm grateful to you,” he said to Joyce, “for suggesting such a satisfactory bargain.” Then, to the room: “Give me a reasonable chance and there'll be no trouble.” “Oh, sure.” Fenner said. his voice thin and ‘mocking. “We'll give you plenty of chance.” Raeburn looked at him. as though weighing the statement. “I’m not sure I can get out of the country. but I can at least start these photographs on their way. After that I'll not care so much. . .. There’s just one more thing.” He turned to Delia. “I’m sorry about last night, Miss Stewart.
