The weasel- faced clerk behind the wicket laid a pistol handy and informed Darragh that Sard was away on a business trip. Darragh looked cautiously the small office: “I have important news ing Jose Quintana,” whispered ragh; ‘“Where is Sard?" “Why, he had a letter from Quin- tana this very morning,"” replied the clerk in a low, uneasy voice. M, Sard left for Albany on the one o'clock train. Is there any trouble?" Darragh bored him through with his dark stare: “Mind your business,’” he said. That night in Albany Darragh picked up Sard's trail. It led to a dealer in automobiles. Sard had bought a Comet Six, paying cash, and had started north. Through Schenectady, Fonda, “Mayfield, the following day, Dar ragh traced a brand new Comet Six containing one short, dark Levantine with a parrot nose. In Northville Darrkgh hired a Ford.

Two pistols, a stiletto, and a black- jack composed the arsenai of Mr. Sard. A large wallet disclosed more than four thousand dollars in Treas- ury notes—something to Ricca when she arrived, he thought. Among Sard’s papers he discovired a cipher letter from Rotterdam— probably from Quintana.

The baby's name was 8. Clinch be- came quite crazy about her and started to make a lady of her. That was his mania."” “Clinch had plenty of (those days,”” he went on, ‘‘He could afford to educate the child The kid had a governess. Then he sent her to a fancy hoarding school. She had everything a young girl conld want. “She developed into a pretty young thing at 15 She's 18 now—and I don't know what to call her. She pulled a gun on me in July.” “What!" “Sure. There was a row at Clinch’s dump. A rumrunner called Jake Kloon got shot up. I came up to get Clinch He was sick-drunk in his tunk.
