Matic Brendon, criminal investi- gator, has charge of the case. Jenny goes to live with her uncle, Bendigo Redmayne, Robert, in hiding, sends for Bendigo to come to a secret cave. Both men disappear and there is evi- dence of a terrible struggle in the cave. Jenny marries Giuseppe Doria, who works for Bendigo, and they go to live in Italy, where Jenny's uncle, Al-. beet Redmayne lives. Peter Ganns, famous American de- tective, assists Brendon in the. investi- gations. Ganes arranges an arrest of Dorsa. Jenny is killed when she throws her- self in front of her husband and re- ceives the bullet meant for him when he tries to escape. NOW GO ()N WITT-I THE STORY. "Nothing at present was positively known by me which made it out of the question that Joseph Pendean's wife should be the mother of Giuseppe Bonin. But none the less many facts might exist as yet beyond my knowl- edge, which would prove such a sus- picion vain. I considered how to ob- tain these feta and naturally my thought turned to Giuseppe himself. "Having found out what Penzance could tell me, I beat it up to Dart- mouth, because I was exceedingly anx- ious to learn, if possible, the exact date when Giuseppe poria entered the employment of Bendigo Redmayne as motor boatman. Albert's brother hadn't any friends that I could flncl; but 1 traced his doctor and, though he was not in a position to enlighten me, he !.new another man—an innkeeper at Tor -cross, some miles away on the coast—who night be -familiar with this vital date, "Mt. Noah Blades proved n very shrewd and capable ehap. Bendigo Redmayne had known him well, and it was after spending a week at the Tor -cross hotel with Blades and go- ing fishing in his motor boat, that the old sailor had decided to start one himself at '(''row's Nest.' He did so end his first boatman was a failure. Then he advertised for another and received :.t good many ttppllCatleli5. He'd sailed with Italians and liked them on a ship, and he decided for Giuseppe Dcria, whose testimonials appeared to be exceptional. The man came along and. two days after his arrival, ran Bendigo down to Tor - ;rose in his launch to see Blades. "Redmaync, of course, was full of the murder at Princetown, which had just occurred, and the tragedy proved so interesting that Blades had little time to notice the new motor boatman. But what natters is that we know it was on the day after the murder—on the very day Bendigo heard what his brother, Robert, was supposed to have done at Foggintor Quarry—that his new innn Giuseppe 1)orilt, arrived at 'Crow's Nest' and took on his 110 NV du- ties. "That meant that not Pendean, but his wife's uncle, Robert Redmayne, perished on Dartmoor. And there he lies yet, nay son!" Irlr. Ganes took snuff and proceeded.

"Here, I think, we may spare a tri- bute of admiration to Pendean's his- trionics. Both he and his wife were heaven -born comedians as well as hell - That he will leave a full statement before the end, I venture_to praphesy. His•egregious vanity demandsit. You may even expect something a little new in the suicide line if they give him a chance; for be sure he's thought of that. "And now I'll indicate how I brought fact after fact to bombard my theory, and how the theory with- stood every assault until I was bound to accept it and act upon it. "We start with the assumption that Pendean is living and Robert .Red- mayne dead, We next 'assume that Pendean, having laid out his wife's uncle at Foggintor, gets into his clothes, puts' on a red mustache and a red wig and starts for Berry Head on Rednayne's motor bicycle. The sack supposed to contain the body is, found, and that is all. His purpose Ili to indicate a hiding -place for the; corpse and lead search in a certain+ direction; but he is not going to trust, the son; he is not going to stand the' risk of Robert Redmayne's corpse spoiling his game. No, his victim never left Foggintor and probably Michael will presently tell us where to find the body. "Meanwhile a false atmosphere is "I hurled hint over the cliff:" created under which he proceeds to his engagement at 'Crow's Nest.' And then what happens? The first clue- the forged letter, purporting to come, from Robert Redmayne to his brother. Who sent it? Jenny Pendean onn her way through Plymouth to her Uncle 13endigo's home. "Jenny plays widow but, spends as much tinge as she wants in her bus- band'a arms all the sante; and to- gether they plan to put out poor Ben. He'd never seely Pendean, of course, which made the Doria swindle pos- sible. I incline to think that Michael meant to begin with the old sailor and that, when Robert turned tip unex- pectedly on Dartmoor, he altered his "Now we come to the preliminary steps at 'Crow's Nest' which ended in the death of the second brother. You offered just the starting . point; and before you left on that rough, moon. light.night, Pendean had recreated the forgery of Robert Redmayne and ap- peared before you in that character. And not content with this, he kept the part going :for all it was worth. As Robert Rednlayne, he broke into Strete Flim and was .seen by'Mr. Brook, the falPiller. "New we get to biindnaan'e buff with the forgery. Follow each step. Bendigo never sees his supposed bro- ther once; yeti never seen him again.

Meantime the course of true love runs smoothly and Doris marries 'his wife again," ' CHAPTER XVIII• CONFESSION, During the autumn assizes, Iilicbael Pendean was tried at Exeter • and con: demned to death for the murders of Robert, Bendigo and Albert' Red- mayne,- He offered 110 defence and he was only impatient to return to his seclusion within the red walls of the county ,jail, where he occupied the brief balance of his days with just such a statement as Peter Ganns had foretold that he would seek to make. This extraordinary document was very characteristic of the criminal. Here is his statement, word for word, as he wrote it: MY APOLOGIA. "i%arken, ye judges! There is an- other madness besides, and -it is before the deed. Ah! Ye have not gone deep enough into this soul! Thus speaketh the red judge:' 'Why did this criminal commit murder? He meant to rob.' I tell you, however, that his soul hun- gered foe blood,. not booty; he thirsted for the happiness of the knife!" And again: "What is this man? A coil of wild serpents at war against themselves— so they are driven apart to seek their prey in the world." So wrote one whose art and wisdom are nought to this rabbit -brained gen- eration; but it was given -to me to find my meat and drink within his pages and to see my own youthful impres- sions reflected and crystallized with the brilliance of genius in his stu- pendous mind. Remember, 1, -who write, am not thirty years old. As a young man without experience I sometimes asked myself if some spirit from another order of beings than my own had not been slipped into my human ,carcass It seemed to me that none with whom I: came in con- tact was built on, or near, my own pattern, for I had only met one per- son as yet -any mother—who did not softer from the malady of a had con- science. My father and his friends wallowed in this complaint. At fifteen years of age I kilted a mala, and found, in a murder under- taken for very definite' reasons, a thrill beyond expectation. That inci- dent- is unknown; the death of my father's foreman, Job Trevose, has not been understood 'till now. He lived at Paul, a village upon the heights nigh Penzance. Among the • fish -curing ,sheds one day, unseen, I chanced to hear Trevose speak of my mother to another man and declare that she did evil and dishonored my father. From that moment I doomed Tre- vose to death and, some weeks later, after many failures to win the right conditions, caught ]nim alone in 0 sen fog. I walked beside pian for fifty paces, then fell behind, leaped at his neck and hur-ed him over the cliff in all instant. My life proceeded old r:y; I diose the profession of dentist, as being likely to -introduce me to people of a more interesting type than my fath- er's acquaintance; and I kept an open mind for myself, but a shut mind for others. ' The brainless 'Robert Redmayno, brought his mere to spend her school holiday with him and I discovered in the seventeen -year-old school girl a magnificent and pagan simplicity of mind, combined with a Greek loveli- ness of 'body that created in me a convulsion.
