It was all lolling* out beautifully. Iiow'0ver, thele was no conv,yanee round one of those iron pilasters. The rope was there as Irons= stat- ed; indeed, he had placed it there I himself. - With the utmost coolness .i and courage Chris did as she was de- sired, But it took some little time to coax the rope to go over in the proper direction. There was a lit - tie mutter of triumph from below, and presently TTelsou, with every ap- pearance of utter exhaustion, climb- ed over the hedge to the terrace,. At the same moment an owl hooted twice from the long belt of trees at the bottom of the garden. "I hope you are none the worse for your adventure?" Chris asked, pol- itely. Henson said sententiously that he fancied not. His familiarity with the cliffs had led him too tar. If he had fallen ou a ledge of rock good- ness only knows what might have happened. Would Chris be so good as to lend hive the benefit of her arm back to the castle? Chris was grac- iously raniously willing, but she was full of curiosity at the same time. Had Hensen really been in danger, or was the whole thing some part of an ela- borate and cunning plot? Henson knew perfectly well that she had taken a great fancy to the upper ter- race, and he might - Really it was difficult to know what to think. They passed along slowly till the lights here and there from the castle shone on their faces. At the same time a carriage had driven up to the hall (door and a visitor was getting out. With a strange sense of eagerness and pleas- ure Chris recognised the gonosome features and misshapen shape of IT0.therly Reif. - "The expected guest has arrived," Henson said. . There was such a queer mixture of snarling anger and exulting triumph in his voice that Claris looked up,. Just ' for an instant Henson had dropped the mask. A ray of light from the open door streamed fully a1lo5s his -face. The malignant pleasure of it startle-[} Chris. Like a flash she began to see how she had been used by those miscreants. "ETe is very handsome," she con- trived to sa,v, steadily. "'ITandsome is, that handsome does,' " Benson quoted. "Let us hope that Dr. Bell- will succeed in his Mission. He has my best wish-' es," Chris turned away and walked slowly as possible up the stairs. An -1 other minute with that slimy hypo crito and she felt she must betray; herself. Once out of sight she flew; along the corridor and snapped up i the electric Light. She fell back! with a stifled cry of dismay, but she' was more sorrowful than surprised, "1 expected it," she said. "I knew that this was the thing they were after." Tho precious copy of Rembrandt was no longer there! There were more sides to the mys- tery than David Steel imeginid.
