A Mexican maid handed it to
Silcott while he was at -supper. He
asked permission of ,Mas. Windom

"Mosely has made his second •

"Two• of his ruffians assaulted
our lawyer Stratton. He is at

wife." '
"Is M•r tratton--bathe -hm t'Y•' -
the hostess asked.
"I don't think so."
"Did they get the letter?" Anne
wanted to .know. -
`iNo. Strattoi'i'did not have it."

More Questions
"Are you carrying it with -you?"
"No." .
"Why didn't you show- us than
note you got from Mrs. 'Strat•
toil?" she asked, shifting the' at-
tack. •

"I told' you about it:" Jim ,was
a trifle disconcerted by ,her cu-

"III have a look at ' it, if yo41

"You're- some bossy," Siiedt
commented. "That note was writ, •

"I'm in this as much as you are.

ask her." •
"You sure 'do ride Bard on an

Said, a hand coming slowly out
of his coat pocket with the letter.

"hat would you do?"
'She' told lkim proinp,•t1y: ' 'tI'd:

Jim shook his, head, '*pulling at

She drew a deep breath of sur-

"Noe Just' now 'I'm More valu-

• Anne is . Worried
Anne stared at Jim. "Why
should Mosely want, to i -ole.. the
pestoffice?" • ,
"Because he thinks I mailed :the
en's letters," . Silcott said.
He explained . how he had been
followed and had manoeuvred, to
throw Mosely's . Mexican spy off •
the track. •
"You ' mean• you didn't mail the
letter, blit' have' it ,hidden • some• -
'where?" , • • ' .
"Go to the head of the ' class."
"And you won't tell, me where'
rets' aiatle girlaaintestnh^-1re-

A ",sense of despair swept over
her. -He was moving, in'the valley
:of the shadow of death and she
could do notharig about it.
• "Men like you ought to live on
a fair-awaer 3sland'•_•she....said Bite
terly. "Then their friends couldn't •
,see them strutting around inviting
death:"
"1 don't want distress you,'
• he said gently. "I take all pre-
cautions possible. • • My own opin-.
tor; 'is- that I am •going. to live tb
a ripe old 'age. Don't worry about '
me."
Her eyes fell away from his.
"That's -easy to say. • Hove can' I
help it—since we're friends."
' A Little Hope '
He • pluc'k•ed 'a ' hope fro'ni her
unhappiness, even though he knew
'align fate' had built a barrier•
between. them. How much . her •
emotions were involved he could
_ not guess. Therehad been exult-
ant moments when he had read.
what he wanted to see in her eyes,
but he knew he might easily be
mistaken: A man in love could'
let his judgment interp et kind-
ness for something deeper.

was no way out for them 'to find
happiness. She had been brought'
• up, as he•.hnd, in the -narrow con-

Iooked upon divorce as a disgrace.
Henrietta's eager voice came to
them from the adjoining room.
"Come on everybody. We're
going to . play charades"
They drifted back toCthe group.
A few minutes Iater, Anne, all ex-
cited, drew Silcott aside again.
