The little row of attached houses ran off at right angles to the high street of Princetown. Brendon knocked at No. 3 and was admitted by a thin, gray-haired wo- man who had evidently been shed- ding tears . He found himsif in a little hall decorated with many tro- phies of fox hunting. “Do 1 speak to Mrs. Pendean?” asked Brendon; but the old woman shook her head. “No sir, I's Mrs. Edward Gerry, widow of the famous Ned Gerry, for twenty years Huntsman of the Dart- moor Foxhounds. Mr. and Mrs. Pendean were—are—I mean she is my lodger."” “Is she ready to see me? “She's cruel hard hit, poor What name, sir?” “Mr. Mark Brendon."” Mrs. Gerry opened a door upon the right hand of the entrance. “The great Mr. Brendon be here, Mrs. Pendean,” she said; then Bren- don walked in and the widow shut the door behind him. Jenny Pendean rose from her chair by the table where she was writing letters and Brendon saw the auburn girl of the suncet.
