' Michael Pendean, husband of Jenny,. disappears and Robert Redmayne, uncle to Jenny, is suspected of murder.. l4Yark Brendon, :criminal investigator, 3s in charge of the case. Robert roams at Iarge. Jenny goes to live with her uncle, Bendigo Redmayne. Robert visits Berrdigo's neighborhood and sends for his b ro her to meet him_ w in a nearby cave. Giuseppe Doria tkes his mas- ter to the meeting place and leaves the two, brothers together. When Doria calls for Bendigo he finds both men missing and evidence of a terrible struggle in the cave. Jenny marries Doria and they go to Iive in Italy, where Jenny's uncle, Al- bert Redmayne lives. When Robert is seen in Italy Brendon and Peter Ganes, famous American detective, re- new investigations. 4N NOW. GO ON WITH THE STORY. "None whatever. Doria is amazing- ly handsome and attractive—the type a woman generally worships. I grant that Italo-English marriages are not remarkable for their success; but— well, no doubt Jenny's husband is worldly wise. He has everything to gain by being good, everything to lose by behaving badly.. _Jenny is e proud girl. I hope to see much of her, though it appears that their home will be in Turin." "He has abandoned his ambitions to recover the family estates and title and so forth? Brendan told me all about that." "Entirely. Besides it seems 'that one of your countrymen has secured the castle at Dalceacqua and bought the title teo. Giuseppe was very enter - he loves i.?eness:" Before luncheon Mark Brendon re- turned from the hills" with his guide. They had seen nothing of Robert Red- m.wy-ne and appeared to be rather weary of one another's company. "You must impart your wisdom and gey spirit to Signor Marco," said Giuseppe to Mr. Ganns, when Bren- don was out of •earshot with Jenny. "He is a very dull dog and; sloes not even listen when I talk. Not simpa- tico, I suppose. He will never find out anything. Will you, I wonder? Have you any ideas? A new broom sweeps clean, as you say." "A. very cute notion," declared Peter. "We'll rope you in, :Giuseppe. Between you and the and the post, our friend Brendon has been barking up the wrong tree, you know. But If you and I and he, together, can't clean this up. then we're not the men I take us for." Doria laughed. It was not until after the midday meal that Ganes and Mark were able to get speech. together. Then, prom- ising to return in time to meet Vir- gilio Poggi, Who would cross the lake for tea, the two men sauntered beside Como and exchanged experiences. The Interview proved painful to the youn- ger, for he found that Peter's doubts were cleared in certain directions. "Do you begin to see any bight?" asked Mark. "Not much upon the main problem. A minor feature has cleared, how- ever. 1 know the rock you split upon, my son. You were hi love with Jenny Pendean from the moment .you knew that she was a widow. And you're in love with Jenny Doria now. And to be in love with one of the principals in a case, • is to handicap yourself out of the hunt, as far as that case Is concerned." "We know some things without proof and are proud to take them on trust," answered Brendon. "Have I not seen. Mrs. Darla under affliction and in situations unspeakably diffi- cult? She buried her own crushing grief—i0 "And in nine months was married to another man." "She is young and you have seen for yourself what her husband is. Who can tell what measures be took to win her?" "Well, I do not ask much; but since I have picked up this thing for Al- bert's sake, there's one point on which I insist. If you are going to take Jenny into your'confidence and assume that she has no wish or desire other. than to see justice done and the mys- tery cleared, then I can't work with you, Mark." "You wrong her, but that doesn't matter, I suppose. What does mat- teris that you wrong me," said. Been don, with fierce eyes fixed upon the elder. "I've never thought or dreamed of confiding in her, or anybody else. I'm a detective first .and last and al-, ways over this business; and I have some credit in my painful profession" "Good.

While Brendon entertained no sort of regard for Doria, his balanced mind allowed him to view the man with impartial justice, Giuseppe and his wife had planned to visit an acquaintance at Colieo, to the northward of the lake; and before the steamer started, after noon, the ste Before luncheon Mark Brendon re I turned with his guide.
