Ardeyne wondered what Mrs. Egan

"Ask Mrs, Ardeyne to come to the

There was a brief pause, then Alice
spoke te tam.
"Oh, Philip, is that you?
"Yes, dear—I wanted to tell you—"
"Oh Philip, it's so good to hear

"No, listen, Alice, Don't come up.

"Ceuldn't I- come with you?"
From the fresh. eagerness of her
voice he knew she had no suspicion,
as -yet, that his contemplated journey
was connected with Mrs. Egan,
"I'm afraid' not, dear,'
"I'd be in the way?"
"Not exactly that, but it wouldn't

There was a brief silence at the

"Very well, Philip."
"I hope you don't mind, dear?"
"Not in the least."
"It couldn't be helped. I tried to
find somebody else, but--"
. "I wonder," said Alice, "why you
•should think I'd mind? Good-bye."
She hung up the receiver and ‘stood
for a moment with her hands pressed
to her heart. •

CHAPTER XXXIX .
Summer, shimmering with heat like
the golden glow of a furnace, lay
over Bordighera. The English villa
colony, with few exceptions, had fled,
and most of the Italians, including
resident hotel and pension proprietors,
had taken their families to the moun-
tains or the cool, shady heights above
La Mortala.
It had been a long time since Hec-
tor Gaunt had even thought of aban-
doning his farm for seasonal reasons.
He was one of those rare people who
are affected neither by heat nor cold,
and to whom mountain, sea, or plain
are one as regards air and general
climatic conditions. If anything, he
preferred I3ordighera in the summer-
time; for then he practically had it
to hinisell, barring the natives, and,
like all hermits, he was selfish.
But now he did think of making a
move, and actually did so, as far as
the Villa Tatina. It seemed neces-
sary, on, Jean's account. Hugo's chil-
dishness had progressed rapidly.
Sometinies they thought it must have
been the fall which developed his ec-
centricities, for certainly they had be-
come more marked since thateevent.
Hewas once more in prison, poor
fellow, although fortunately he did
not realize it. The big iron gates of
the villa were always kept locked, and
he was never allowed to- wander
about the town unless jean. or 'Gaunt
was with him. They told him that the
gates must be locked because of the
danger of thieves and, accepting this
theory; he spent long hours patrolling
the grounds with. Tito and an old gun
he had found in one of the attics.
Needless to say, the gun was not load
ed. Hugo was quite sensible enough
to appreciate this, but, as he said,

it. although for punishment it had
been taken away from him on several
occasions. Ohe could not forget that
he had once shot and killed. a man.
Jean would.not admit, scarcely to
herself, that she was beginning to be
afraid of him. She locked her door
at night, something she had never
done before, and once—awaking sud-
denly—she sprang up with a convul-
sive start with the cold white moon
staring full at her, convinced for a
few seconds that the moon was Hu-
go's face. The horror of it was so un-
bearable that she closed and barred
the heavy wooden shutters and switch-
ed on the bedside light. In conse-
quence, for the rest of the night she
was tifled.
Often Gaunt and she had debated
about making some change, but the
problem of Hugo was too great.
"We shall be here for the rest of
our li-ves» she said. wearily.
Then Gaunt's -patient smile would
fill her with self-reproach. It was
enough for him just to be near her
and help her ne look after- Hugo. The
question of consigning the little man
to a private 'asylum was never raised.
He was trying enough, but he had his
pitiful moments. Gradually, bit by
bit, the memory of That Place was
growing dim. He scarcely ever re-
ferred to those long years at Broad-
moor, nor did he clamor for a chang4
to livelier Surroundings nor meditate
wild financial enterprises. Of his own
accord he handed all his money over
to Jean, and at least they were assur-
ed of a comfortable living.
But one thing he often did mention
and that was the, crime of which he
had been accused and convicted. As
his childishness increased there aa-
companied it a determined desire to
think it was loaded. set himself right with the world. He

Tito with the seriousness of his du-
ties. He would wander about, sniffitig
and snorting in his own peculiar fa-
shion—seeking for cats in .the shrub-
bery—arid had frequehtly to be called
sharply to attention.
If anything, this game got onJean'

piping. If she too kher book into the
