At the extreme end of the nar- row corridor, la a passage almost blocked by old furniture. was soother room, a sort et •tae, with a slanting root. Making sure that old Adelbert did not hear this, they went back to this door, which the concierge unlocked. Inside the room was dark. The taper showed little. As their eyes became accustomed to the darknesa, the out - lines of the attic stood revealed, a junk room, plied high with old trunks, and in oat, corner • bed.

"Now," he said. But the boy—he was no more—Lay still. He made one effort to rice, sod fell back. "Up with your* said the concierge, and jerked him to his feet He night the all of the bed, or he would have fallen. "Now --stand Ilk* a men." He stood then, facing his captors without deaance.
