"I have conte to see harry Kerr,"
site said imperturbably. "Can I see
/tint?„
"If he is in the place, of course
YOu can. I'll tell hint. When did you
conte up? You ma not say a word
about It this rnor'11ing."
"No, for I hadn't made up my
mind, or rather, I was afraid that
I would be prevented. Yotrr mother
was pleased that I should come and
Blanche would have come with me
if she had been allowed."
Jack Carrington faintly smiled.
"Kerr ought to be flattered by
the interest you all take in. hire."
"Go and get ltim,"• said Griselda
with a touch of the imperiousness
that was part of her charm, "unless
I have your permission to range the
place Myself in search of him."
"You would be a disturbing vis-
ion to the staff'," said Carrington,
as he went out more quickly than
usual 'to obey her behest,
He was gone for about ten min -
Utes, and when he came back his
face was blank.
'''Kerr is not in the /louse. He
went out, it appears, about one
o'clock for lunch, and he has not
returned."
"Do you have as long as you like
for lunch here? Are there no times
or seasons or fixed hours?"
"An hour is allowed to the mem-
bers of the staff, but, of course, Mr.
Kerr is a free agent.'
"Is •there" any use of my waiting
to see whether he will conte back
soon?"
"We will be charmed if you will
wait. Come to my father's room and
I will tell them to bring you some
tea."
Griselda acquiesed. The situation
was a novel one and she had all a
woman's keen curiosity regarding
the daily surroundings of a man
who had interested her.
"What luxury you city men live
in.!. Your business premises are a
sort of glorified club! I don't won-
der that you. are difficult to please
at home.'
"Are we difficult to please," ask-
ed Jack with a smile as he opened
the door for her to pass into his
father's room.
"I don't know—I have heard so.
I say, Mr. Carrington, I'rn worried
about Harry Kerr. I never slept at
all last night. I must see him some-
how. I can make him do things even
when he doesn't want to. He must
be taken away from these .terrible
people and brought back to us."
"I only wish that it were possible
but Kerr is a little difficult, Miss
Hume; at least I have found him so; •
He is a proud man and resents int.:
erference "
"I have never found him like that
I should simply take him by the
shoulders shake him, and ask him
what he means."
"Ah, but we are not .so privelegect
"Where is Ryder street where he
lives with Mr. a'Iaurice?"
"Near 'Piccadilly Circus:"'
"Do you think my going there
would be of any use?"
"Frankly, I don't think so. But
here comes my father. He will per-
haps advise you. He may even have
seen Kerr' lately, or may know
where he is."
Bentley Carrington looked sur-
prised at the bewildering vision of
Griselda Hume sitting so unconcern
edly on his chair.
,"I have conte up to see Harry,
Mr. Carrington. Where is he?"
Carrington .looked inquiringly at
his son.
"Haven't you told him that Miss'
Hume is. in the house, Jack?"
• He is not here. He hasen't come.
back from hunch.'"
•
"Go and ask Gresley. He sees a
good deal of hint, and he ntay be,
able to throw some light on his
whereabouts.'
Carrington purposely sent Jack
away because he wished to have a
private ward with Griselda.
"I have had some talk with young
Kerr this morning, Miss Hume, and
I am sorry to say he is not in a
good mood.'
"How could he be, poor boy?"
asked Griselda unexpectedly. "We
all simply glared at him yesterday,
and noltady took the smallest notice
of him. It was most cruel.."
Carrington was nonplussed, and'
he did not know quite what to stake
Of this remarkably outspolten young
woman who had captivated •iris son's
heart.
"Did you jump on flim?" was
Griselda's next question.
"Did I what?"
"Did you scold him and tell hint
he had eomnittted elle unpardonable'
sin?"
"I had very little to say to him,
and he resented what I did say, and,
also the fact that he had not been'
invited to Brighton."
"Well, I think he might have.
been," replied Griselda, daringly.
"It would Have kept him out of mis-
chief."
"Look here, my dear, said Car-
rington, with the utmost patience.
"In spite of a good deal of remon-
strance, iiar'ry Kerr Ilan eontiiilied
to find his fi'ieiide .among the sort
of people riot ttstially countenanced
in ordinary society --to put It quite
mildly. Maurice knows all his Habits
and, though he speaks of Mitzi With
great reluctance, / leave gathered
from what he has 'Said a,t various
trines that Harry Derr is leading a

that. He may have beeu silly, but
Harty Kerr would never be wicked,
and even il' your nephew were to
swear it on his oath, I should still
riot believe it."
"Harry Kerr is fortunate in 11av,
ing such a cllanlpion." observed the
elder Carrington drily.
"Well, who would stand by ]tire
if I didn't? We quarrelled in pina-
fores, and have been the best of fri-
ends ever since. Our people wished
us to marry, but we weren't of their
mind. It's a purely friendly interest
that 1 take In him, Mr. Carrington,
and I ani here to -day because there
is 0 feeling .at the back of my mind
that he has not been treated fairly.".
"By whom?"
"By everybody, and I am perfect-
ly sure that it was a mistake for
him to go to lodge in the salve
house with your nephew. 1Vhy, they
haven't a single thing in common --
it's impossible that they could have'
"Maurice has been very good to
hire, my dear—and lately, I think,
at some cost to himself."
Griselda hesitated for a moment
her face flushing slightly.
Mr. Carrington, -please tell me
about the woman that Harry was
with yesterday. Do you know her?
I caught a glimpse of a pretty face
and that was all. Wasn't she a to_
speetablc person?"
"She's a chorus girl at the Friv-
olity Theatre, my dear. Yon will
admit that that is not a very suit-
able person for Harry to consort
with, and that her home is not a
good place for him to spend the
whole of his leasuro in, as I under-
stand he does."
Griselda's face fell.
"It doesn't sound nice, but, oh; I
do want to see hint and hear what
he has to say for himself. I ought
to have been brave enough yester-
day to break through the conven-
elities and to have run after him.
But I will see him to -day. Well,
have you found pini?" she said eag-
erly as Jack re-entered • the room.
"No. Gresely says he left the of-
fice at the usual lunch time; very
much upset." •
"Could I see this Mr.' Gresely?"
asked Griselda, with a sudden ins-
piration. -
"You can, 'Of course, it you par_
titularly desire it, but such a thing
is a little unusual. You had better
ask hint to step in, Jack, if this wil-
ful young lady will have her way."
But Griselda sprang up.
"No, don't do that. Just let me go
to his room,, or speak to liim ..at. his
desk, or see pini wherever he is to
be found. I only want to risk him a
question or two. There is no use of
making an'occasion of it." -
"Take her to Gresley, Jack," said
Bentley Carrington, turning, again
to his interrupted correspondence.
James Grisley, a middle-aged man
with grey- hair and a serious face
marked by a singular r'efineinent,
did not betray the.slightest sur-
prise when a very attractive young
lady appeared suddenly at his elbow
and was presented as a friend of
Hairy Kerr's.
Jack .Oarr•ington •• considerately
moved away that they might have
their little colloquy undisturbed.
I only want to ask yeti about Mr.
Harry Kerr, Mr. Gresley. You don't
think that he has run away, do you?'
"I don't know where he would
run to, madam, but if you are a
friend of his, I should like to tell
you that he was ' very much upset
this morning, and talked a little
wildly about conspiracies and things
of that sort."
Griselda sagely nodded. •
"I'm not :surprised. I ani sure he
hasn't been well-treated. Do you
know anything of hew he spends
his time outside of business •hours?'
Grisley looked around a little
guardedly before he answered.
"He ought not to have gone to
lodge in Ryder Street, Miss Hume,
I like the lad, and if he has, gone
off the straight a bit, a little tens
derness and forbeaa+ance will bring
him back."
Griselda felt as if she could have
kissed the kind face of the unsus-
pecting James ,Grisley, who had
spoken the first words of real hope
and cheer .about Harry that she had
heard.
"That's What I think. I have come
here to see him today. I have known
hive all his life, and I love his dear
mother next to my own. No --I'm
not engaged to him, and there isn't
anything of• that kind between us,
nor will there ever be. But this
,means something very ,grave to
another woman that I am interested
in, and I want to get to the bottom
of it, Mr, •Gresley: Will you help Yue?
"1 will, 11 I can. What can I do?
Shall I tell him when he comes back
that you have.been here, or are you
going to Walt for him?"
Gresley, I have a horrid feel
-
lug about this affair. I .don't think
that he is going to come back lrei'e"
Gresley stared,
"Oh, come, why shouldn't lie be,
back? He can't afford not to conte
back. It means a lot, you know, and
he is getting on very well as f'ar as'
business is concerned, A very clever
young fellow I thought pini, only
wanting a bit of steadying, yoit 'un-
derstand,"
