On the road to his hotel Brendor meets Robert Red- mayne but falls to capture him. | Jenny and Doria meet Robert on the | beach. | NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY ‘‘He appears to be sane,” she an- swered. “He made no mention of | the past and neither spoke of his crime nor of what he has been doing since. He made me send Doria out of earshot and then told me that he had only come here to see you. He| has been here some days, hidden in | cne of the caves down the coast west- “I confess the idea occurred to me as soon as we had your brother's offer; but seeing the terms, I couldn't press for it," he said. “Now I agree and, what's more, I think it would be very desirable if nobody— not even the household—knew I was here. “That can be done, If you send your car away and say youwll report tomorrow, then the police won't trouble us any more till we see what next. You can go up to the tower ward. * “And still you say he behaved like | ' asked | | Pendean?"” Brendon. '“Yes—except for what seemed an | insane fear. 1 implored him to come with me in the boat and see | " Uncle Bendigo and trust to the mercy | of his fellow men. But he is very| suspicious. He thanked me and groveled horribly to me; hut he would | not trust either me or Doria, or think | of entering the boat. 1 asked him, then, to tell me srhat he wished and how I could help him. He considered and said that if Unele Bendigo would see him quite alone and swear, before God, not to hindér his departure in any way r they had met, he would come to 'Crow’s Nest' tonight after the| household was asleep. ""For the moment he wants food and a lamp to light his hiding-place after dark. His hope is that you will give him means and clothes, so that he may leave England safely and get to Uncle Albert in Italy. He made © us swear not to say where we had found. him, and then he indicated a spot where I was to bring your answer | in writing before dark.” | _Mr. Redmayne nodded. | “And at the same time petter take the poor wretch some food and drink and the lamp. How he has lived for the last six months | I cannot understand.” “In the first place,” declared Rob- ert Redmayne's brother, “the man | must be mad, whatever appears to the contrary. I'll agree to see him to- night—or rather tomorrow morning. | I'll bid him come at 1 o'clock and he | shall find the dcor open and a light in the hall.” Some provisions were put into jaunch and, with the letter in pocket, Jenny again set out. It ‘was already growing dusk fore she left and Giuseppe drove little vessel to its limit of speed. Then Brendon was much surprised. He had been standing under the flag- gtaff with the master of “Crow's Nest,” watching the launch, and when ghe had vanished westward into a gray, still evening, Bendigo challenged the detective with a proposition al- together unexpected. “See here,” he said. “T've got a damned, uneasy feeling about meeting my brother single-handed tonight. T/ can't tell you what it is. I've promised to meet him alone and I ghan't be telling the poor man a lie, Because, If all's straight and he shows no violence, he needn’t know any-| body else is there.” { “You are wise and I quite agree with youn," said Mark. “No doubt Doria s a man you can rely upon in every way and he is powerful too.” But Bendigo shook his head. “No,” he answered., “T've left this | question until Doria and my niece | swere out of the way, for a very good reason. I don’t want them in this| thing ‘more than they are already. | What 1 want up there is you and] only you.” | * “Brendon conside | you had the her | be- | the TAKE SALTS IF STOMACH ISN'T ACTING RIGHT Says Indigestion Results From an Ex- cess of Hydrochlorie Acid.

Mark had already taken up his position in the chamber aloft and Bendigo looked to it that he should not be in- terfered with. At the agreed time Doria and his | master came up together, the former | carrying a light. Jenny also joined them for a short while, but she stayed | cnly ten minutes and then departed | to bed. | Giuseppe brought up a jug of water, a bottle of spirits, a little keg of | tobacco, and two or three clay pipes, | for the old sea captain never smoked till after supper and then puffed steadily until he went to bed. CHAPTER VIL The Compact Bendigo lit his pipe and turned to kis only book. It was “Moby Dick." Herman Melville’'s masterpeice had long ago become for the old sailor the one plece of literature in the world. | “wel,” he said to Doria, “get you | gone, Look round as usual to see that all's snug aloft and below; then turn in. Leave only the light in the hall and the front door on the latch. Did you mark if he had a watch to know the hour?” “He had no watch, but Mrs. Pen-| dean thought upon that and lent| him hers.” Bendigo nodded and picked up a clay pipe, while Doria spoke again. “May I speak of your niece a mo- ment before I go?" : | Bendigo shrugged his round shoul- ders and pushed his hand through his red hair. “It's no good speaking of her till you've spoken to her,” he sald. “I| know what you are after very well. | But it's up to her, I reckon, not me.i She's gone her own way since she | was a nipper—got her father’s will | hid under her woman's shape.” | “Our Italian way is to approach | the parents of the loved one,” ex-/ plained Doria. “TFo win you is to be | far on my way, for you stand to her | in the place of parent. Is it not so? E€he cannot live alone. She was not meant by God to be a single woman, or a widow woman." “But what about your ambitions— to wed an heiress and claim the title and the territory of your vanished forebears?" Doria swept his hands to right and left with a great gesture, as though casting away his former hopes. “It is fate,” he said. “T planned my life without love. I had never loved and never wanted to. Now 1 AILY HERALD, TUESD a AY, JULY do not want the rich woman but only she who wakens my passion, adoration, worship. Life has noth- ing. in it but Madonna-—English Jenny." "We can stow the subject for six months anyhow,” replied Bendigo, lighting his long clay. “I suppose, in your country as well as mine, there's a right and a wrong way to approach a woman; and seeing my girl's a widew-—made so under pe- cultarly sad circumstances—you'll un- derstand that love talk is out of the question for a good Dbit yet a while."” “It 18 too true,” answered the other, “Trust me, I will hide my soul and be exquisitely cautious. Her sorrow shall be respected—from no selfish motive only, hut because I am a gentleman, as you remind me.” He was gone and for a moment cnly the hurtle of the rain on the ground windows of the tower room broke the silence; then Brendon emerged from his hiding place and stretched his limbs. Jendigo regarded him with an expression half humorous and half grim. “That's how the land lies,” he said. “Now you've got it.” Mark bent his head. As a clock in the hall below beat the hour of one he returned to the cupboard and drew the door behind him, Bendigo had just lighted an- other pipe when there came the sound of feet ascending the stair; but it was doubtful or cautions footfall that they heard. The ascending man neither hesitated nor made any effort to approach without noise. He came swiftly and as the sailor stood up calm ‘and collected, to meet his brother—mnot Robert Redmayne but Gluseppe Dorla appeared, He was very agitated and his eyes shone, He breathed hard and wiped the hair away from his forehead. He had evidently been out in the rain, for water glistened on his shoulders and face. Doria explained. “I was going the rounds ‘and just |about to turn out the oil lamp over the front gate as usual when I re- membered Mr. Redmayne. That is half an hour ago and I thought it would be better to leave the lamp, to guide him, for the night is dark and wild, I came down the ladder there- fore; but I had already been seen. He was waiting under the shelter of the rocks on the other side of the road.,/ He would not come within the gate but sent a message that you are to come to him instead, if you still will to save him.” (Continued in Our Next Issue) .
