Mark Brendon, famous crim- inal investigator, is is charge of the case. Jenny goes to Iive with her uncle, Bendigo Redmayne, Brendan sees Robert in the woods near Bendigo's home but fails to cap- ture hire. Robert sends word to Ben- digo to come alone to a• nearby cave. Giuseppe Doria, who works for Ben- digo, takes his master to the meeting place. When Doria goes to bring Ben- digo home he finds the cave empty and signs of a terrible struggle. Jenny marries Darla and they go to live in Italy, where Jenny's uncle, Albert Redmayrte, lives. Robert appears in the neighborhood of Albert's home. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. Ro yroaming "What did you do'!" "I made a fool of myself," confessed Jenny -:, 'Assunta says that I cried out very Ioud and then toppled over and fainted. When I came round there was nothing to be seen." "The point is then: did Assunta see him also?" "That was the first thing I found out. I hoped she had not. That would have saved the situation in a way and proved it was only some pic- ture of the mind. But she saw him clearly enough. She heard him, too. When I cried out he leaped away into the woods." Mia` liedmayne lighted a cigar which he took from a box on a Iittle table by.the open hearth. He drew several deep ,breaths before bR s^eejlikeee,ai . e his is a very disquiecmg circum- stance and I greatly wish it had not happened," he said. "There may be no cause for alarm; but, on the other hand, when we consider the disap- pearance of my brother Bendigo, I have a right to feel fear." "You must not stop here to -night,". she said. "You must cross to Be.lagio and stay with Signor Poggi until we know more." 'We shall see as to that. Prepare tea and leave me for half an hour to reflect." In half an hour Jenny returned with Mr. Redmayne's tea. "Providence is, I think, upon our side, pretty one," he began, "for my amazing friend, Peter Ganns, who de- signed to visit me in September, has already arrived in England; and when he hears of this ugly sequel to the story I confided in his ears last win- ter, I am bold to believe that he will hasten to me imhnediatel'iy and not hesitate to modify his, plans." "I'm sure be will/3 declared Jenny. "Write me two letters," continued Alberta "One to Mr. Mark Brendon, the'. young detective from Scotland Yard, of whom I entertained a high opinion; and also,. write to your hus- band Direct Brendon to approach Peter Ganns and beg them ,both to come to me as quickly as their affairs pillow. Also bid Giuseppe to return to you immediately. He will serve to protect us, for he is fearless and resolute." But jenny showedno joy at this suggestion. "I was to have had a peaceful month with you," she pouted. "So indeed I hoped; but it can hard- ly be peaceful no and 1 confess that the pretence of Doria wouldgo some way to compose my nerves. He is powerful, cheerful, and full of re- source.. He is also brave." Jenny had Ieft Doria Tor a time him again until her promised visit to her uncle should be ended. "I heard from Giuseppe three days ago," she said. "He has left Venti- miglia and gone to Turin, where he used to work and where he has many friends. He has a project." Albert spoke again. "To -night I go across the water to Bellagio and you come with me. It is impossible that Robert should know we are there." • ' Jenny wrote the Tetters and posted thele; then she packed -for her uncle and herself. A boatman quickly rowed them to the landing stage of Bell'agio and they soon reached the dwelling of Albert's. friend, who welcomed them with an equal pleasure of surprise and delight. Signor Poggi, a small, fat man with a bald head, broad brow, and twink- ling eyes, grasped their hands -and listened with wonder to the reason for their arrival. At nine o'clock next morning Mr. Redmayne and Jenny were rowed home again, only to hear that no in- truder had broken upon the nightly peace of Villa Pianezzo. Nor did the day bring any news. Once more they repaired to Bel'lagio before dark, and. for three days lived thus. Then came a telegram from Turin to say that Doria was returning immediately to Como and might soon be expected via Milan; while on the, morning that actually brought hire to Menaggio, his wife received a brief Letter from Mark -eel e — eeIwi " 1 r i r. Banns and the two would set forth for Italy within a few days. Baari rose revers:leg a massive frame, wide shoulders, and sturdy leg.. "G',adto meet you, Mr. Brendon," he said in a. genial voice; then he shook )ands, took off his spectaeees, and sat down again. "This is a prcaeure I had meant to give myself .before I (petted the city," declared the big matt. "I've heard about you and I've taken ort my hat to you more than once during the war. You might know me, too." "Everybody in our business knows you, Mr. Ganns. But I've not come hero-worshipping to waste your time I'm proud' you're pleased to see me and it's a great privilege to meet you; but Tire looked in this morning about something that won't wait; and your name is the big noise in a letter I re- ceived from Italy to -day." The elder stared, took a golden box out of his waistcoat pocket, opened, it, tapped it, and helped himseitf to a pinch of snuff, The habit explained his somewhat misshapen nose, It was tobacco, not alcohol, that lent its ex- aggerated lustre and hypertrophied outline to that organ. Brendan produced Jenny's letter. The stout man rose, revealing a mas- sive frame, wide shoulders and sturdy legs. Peter: put on his spectacles and read slowly.' Indeed Mark had never seen a letter read so slowly before. At last the American spoke: "What about you? Can you go?" "Yes; I've appealed to my chief and got permission to pick this up again. My holiday's due and I'll go to Italy instead of Scotland. I was in it from the first, you know.".

Mark Brendon received with mingl- ed emotions the long letter from Jenny Doria. It awaited him at New Scot- land Yard and, as he took it from the rack, his heart leaped before the well - remembered handwriting. She reminded Brendon of his good- will and declared how personally she should we -tome him and feel safer and more sanguine for his companion- ship. She also contrived to let him know that she was not particularly, happy Brendan sought the famous Amer- ican and found his direction without difficulty. He had already visited New Scotland Yard, where be number- ed several acquaintances,. and Mark learned that he was stopping at the. Grand Hotel in Trafalgar Square. On sending in his name a messengerboy bade Brendon follow to the smoking room. His first glance, however, failed to indicate the great man. The smoking room was nearly empty on this June morning and Mark observed nobody but a, young soldier, writing,letters, and a . white-haired, somewhat corpu- lent gentleman sitting with his back to the . light. reading - the Tines.: He' was clean shaved, with a heavy face modelled to suggest a .ilinoceres . The features were , large; the nose swollen end a little veined with purple, the eyes hidden behind owlelike spectacles with tortoise -shell rims, and the brow very broad, but not high.
