'You were a boy; there wasn't evidence enough to hang you — my wife and son were alive; a scandal like my trial would have killed her — well, you know the 'end; 1 yielded to temptation; I was silent." "Yes'" said Mark slowly; "Foe knownfifteen yeaes of your silence! And you meant to let it go on — I'm sure of thatl" he turned and stood looking down at the old man, his youth splendid now in .the flush of its vindication. "I'm inno- cent; you'll have to make it good now," he cried; "but why — do you admit it?" (To Be Continued) Fosdick went to Burleson's office the next dEy in a rare puzzle. He had been called up at home the night before and told to Bed Mark Grant and tell him to meet him • there. Burleson met him calmly enough, "Sit down," he said laconaeally, and then: "Yoe got Grant, you say? Well, he's late." Fosdick grinned. He ddin't want to come." Burleson nodded. "Very likely1" • Then he pushed a broken green jade head, bearded and saturnine, toward the lawyer. "Keep that, Fosdick; You'll need it," Fosdick picked it up and looked it over curiously; he was begin. ning to think that hit friend's mind was affected, "Health's bad enough," he thought; "got water on the brain, I'll bet a dollar!" But he put the jade god's head down With a gingerly touch, "I remember. Used to squat' on your table. How did you break it?" Burleson looked at it bleakly; he was gray as ashes today, "I smashed it. Temper. Fosdick, once in awhile I break out. It's rotten, but it's a fact'It's the second tithe I've pitched that accursed jade god; 1 wish- f'd smashed it to be. gin with!" "Humph!" Fosdick poked it with his hong bony forefinger. "Where did you get it anyway?" "Grant Barton gave it to me." * * * "Eh?" The old lawyer straight- ened up, suddenly his eyes met the hollow eyes opposite and he felt a qualm of dismay. What the deuce did it mean? Then he heard a door open and looked around. A clerk was showing Mark Grant into the sanctum. Fosdick stared at the young man with a feeling that he could not define; it certainly could not be admiration for a criminal, or even toleration, yet he had to ad- mit -- reluctantly — that Mark's very presence in the room was like a rush of fresh air in a choking at- mosphere. There was something in e fhaicc his size, in his clean-cut face and clear eyes, that was reassuring; his guilt never appeared upon thsun- Burleson, too, was studying the newcomer, and no one spoke until Mark broke the silence. "You sent for me." Burleson nodded, "Sit down," he said in a voice that struck Fosdick at once as singular; he looked around at him sharply. "Thank you; I'll stand. I'm go- ing out of towe almost at once," Mark retorted shortly. Then his eye fen on the brokeo jade , head on the desk and the blood leaped into his face. "Is it about that?" he asked quickly, "Yes," Burleson replied quietly; "you're right ehout if;' I could have cleared you; your uncle gave that to Inc after you'd left him." * * Mark's face hardened. "I was sure of it1 you'll state that now, Mr. Borleson?" Burleson smiled oddly. "That's why I sent for you.

You know the thiegs Grant Bartoe said when he was angry? He said too many of them; I lost my tem- per and flung the jade god in his Face. It struck his temple and killed him instantly." "Good GodP! Fosdick's violent surprise made Win collapse in his chair, but neither Mark nor Burle- son flinched, • "I always felt you knew some- thing," Mark said bitterly; "and you let the suffer!" "I let things gol" Burleson drummed on the arms of his chair with nervous fingers. "The whole thing happened in a minute; I didn't expect to bit him.
