and hunted for the assassin of the
.late Mr. Norman without success. The
adbfIls with his portrait a
t'(1 real
tame and a description: of the circum-
stances of his death were scattered
broadcast over the country from Land's
d to Zebra O'Groans, but hitherto no
one hod applied for the reward. The
name -of Krill seemed to be a, rare one,
'and the dead man apparently had ne
relatives, for no one took the slightest
interest in the bills beyond envying
the lucky person who would gain the
large reward offeredfor the cOnViction
of the murderer.
Then one day Deborah, while clean -
l• t out the cellar, found a piece of pa -

e of the safes. These had not been
1 .oved for many years, and the pa -
1 apparently placed carelessly on

Deborah, always thinking something
might reveal the past to Sylvia and af-
ford a clew to the assassin, brought
the paper to her mistress. It proved
to be a few lines of a Ietter, com-
menced, but never finished. But the
few lines were of deep interest
"My dear daughter," these ran, "when

"Oh, Paul," said Sylvia, in dismay,
when they read this together, "and the

a^ea.i name of my father."
"It is unfortunate," admitted Paul, io

"You will have me to take It off your

""My dearest, do not look so pale.
'Whatever may happen you will always
have me to stand by you. And De-

her fidelity.'
So Sylvia was comforted, and Panl,
putting the unenisbed letter in his
pocket, -!vent round to see Pash in his
Chancery lane office. He was stopped
in the outer room by a saucy urchin
with an impudent face and a bold man=

"I have no wish to. When did this

Beecot looked at the lawyer, who

he gave the date.

shabby blue envelope. "1 thought this

to Pash. "You will find there my mar-
