"Yes," said George curtly and then -closed his lips with a firm determina- tion to give battle if necessary. At the • same time lee felt it Was rather awk- ward after eating Derrington's food. A tsudden impulse made Mw rise. "What's the matter now?" asked Sherrington, not moving. "Well, sir," burst out Brendon, "I have a feeling that we are going to •quarrel, and in your own house, and .niter that very excellent dinner I don't ;want to behave rudely, It will be bet- ter to postpone this talk." "Not a bit of it," said Derrington •quietly. "We are relatives, and guar. cels between relatives do not count, Sit •down, I have something important to ;say to you." George sat down and prepared for "the worst. "We'll leave the question of your birth alone for the present," said the elder in a hard tone. "At this mo- ment I wish to talk of Mrs. Jersey's -death, also about your father's death." "What has that to do with this, sir?" "t believe the one Is connected with -the other." George remembered what Bawdsey :tad said. "I've heard that remark be - 'fore," he observed. "Of course. That detective I employ- -ed to watch you made It" "He did, I think you trust that man •too much, sir," said Brendon after a :pause. "Do you? I thought he was a friend ,of yours?" "Oh"— George shrugged his shoul- •alers. "I saved his life, but that does -not constitute friendship. I don't think Bawdsey is worthy of your confi- dence." "I know he isn't. But you see I can't help myself." George looked up quickly. "Black - .mail?" "Something of that sort. I intend to •trust my own flesh and blood—that is, • I intend to tell you all I know connect- -ed with the Jersey case and ask you to .help me to get the better of Bawdsey." "Assuredly, sir" Derrington was rather moved. "I 'Lave not behaved well, George." "That's true enough, sir," said -George, who was not going to be weak, "but you can mak° amends by ac- ' knowledging that my mother was an . honest woman." "I believe she was, George, for none -but an honest woman could have borne was a marriage. I am sure that you are my legitimate heir, and, by heav- ens, I intend to acknowledge you as such before the week's out." Brendon was so moved by this mkt' den recognition of all he longed for that a sudden weakness seized him, And he at down, coverts, his face With his hand. Derrington thought the young man did so to conceal his tears, but in reality George was pat- ting up a short thanksgiving for this Wonderful and bloodless victory. 111$ grandfather again touched his shoul- der. "My boy," he said again, and' his voice • was broken with emotion, "I have behaved badly. I ask your par- don," George put out Ms band blindly and grasped that of his grandfather. When it was once in the old man's grip he raised his grandson with n jerk and made him look ltim in the face. "You forgive Cue?" he asked. "With all my heart and soul," said Brendon quietly, and after another haudsbske they resumed their seats. "I can marry Dorothy now," said 13rendon, with a contented sigh. "If my influence can help you, yes." Derrington paused and shook bis head. "But there is a lioness in the path, George." "Mrs, Ward?" "Exactly. She will move heaven and earth to prevent the marriage." George looked puzzled, "I see no • reason • why site should : oppose it it I am acknowledged as your heir." "Nor do I. I thought myself that it was simply. the money she wanted, and if you were the son-in-law she would not get her claws on the gold. But there is more in it than that. She seeks revenge." "On me? I have never harmed her." "It's a vicarious revenge. I believe that woman loved your father, George, and that he slighted her. That is why she wants to visit his sin—as with a vindictive spirit she may regard it—on you.» "Did Mrs. Ward know my father, sir?" asked George quickly. "Yes. She met him at 'San Remo." • then she knew he was murdered?" i "Of course. I saw „Mrs. Ward the other day, George. She came" here to force me to harm you and to consent to 'Walter' marrying Dorothy." "Ohl You never agreed to that" "I have answered ber chrhlenge by asking you to dinner and will acknowl- edge you my heir. ]firs. Ward will then try to make mischief." "Can she do so?" "Yes.

But, you see, I know no more than you do where the marriage took place." "Do you acknowledge that there was .:a marriage?" said George, starting to his feet.

"I wonder why she did that?" said George thoughtfully. "She was lonely, I understand." George looked at leis shoes. "As Eliza Stokes she lived in that house along with my•mother previous to the elope- ment. 1 expect she bud a kind of af- fection for it." "Weil whatever her reason was I not trouble much to search, as I fevered lest the marriage sitouid•be verified." George wriggled in his seat. "Let us say no more," he said. "Very good.

She told me nothing of her history, but from a word or two which she let slip I believe she must have been in the United States. Why she went there from San Remo or for what reason I cannot say. She came here to see me—we hnd an interview in this very room—to demand money." "What threat did she make?" "She said that she knew where the marriage was celebrated, adding that if I did not give her an annuity she would go to Lockwood and help bins to prove that you were my legitimate grandson and heir." "Did she say if the marringe was celebrated in Englund or abroad?" "No, sir, Mrs. Jersey was a re- markably clever woman, and if my son Percy hnd married her she would have made a man of him." "Then she really was in Love with my father?" "Very deeply In love—as she told me herself. But she did not regard his memory with sue, veneration as to de- sire to aid Itis son. She was content that you should lose your rights, pro- vided that I paid her an annuity. 1 tried in vain to learn from her where the marriage had been celebrated. Site refused to open her mouth, so 1 allow- ed her an annuity of five hundred a year, I arranged that the money should be paid through my lawyers, and she vanished." "Where to?" "I can't say. She might have gone to rejoin Mr. Jersey if there ever Was such a person. She sent a messenger regularly to the office of my lawyers for the money, but did not trouble me in any way. Her next appearance was shortly after the death of your grand- father:" What did she want this tune?" "To set up a boarding house in Ame- lia square.

I thought it best Mrs. Jersey should bare the house, so she went into it and used the old fur- niture,. i don't deny but What she was a good business woman and made the house pay. At all events she was never behindhand with her rent." "I wonder she paid you any at all." "Olt, site had her annuity and was afraid of pressing Inc too hard. I re- fused to let her the house on a seven years' lease. She only had it from year to year, and in that way I kept a check upon her. She knew if I once lost my temper I would throw her over and acknowledge you as my heir." "I wish you had done so," said Bren- don moodily. "It would have saved a lot of trouble." "1 do so now," replied Derrington testily. "Better late than never. Well, Mrs. Jersey lived and flourished for fifteen years. I tried to find you out, George, lest she should get at you"— 'Oh, was. that why you • offered to make me an allowance?" "It was. I intended to give you a yearly income on condition that you went to Australia. Then I could be sura' that Mrs. Jersey would not seek you out. But you refused my offer and disappeared." "I went to college under the name of Brendon," observed George. "And that is why Mrs. Jersey never found you and why I could not come tigress you until you put those adver- tisements about the marriage into the papers. It was that which"— "Yes; so Bawdsey told me. You had me wntcb°d."

"As I said, I went to see Bawdsey at his rooms, I took a cab, and as' the fog was thick I lead couslderable difficulty in finding the place, The rain tine fog chilled tae, for I am not so young as I was, and when I arrived I was shivering,. But I was too anxious to tell Bawdsey about Mrs. Jersey to trouble. He heated some water to give me a glass of hot whisky. While the water was boiling I told Mw I was going to see • Mfrs, Jersey. Ile asked me how I could get into the house without being admitted by one of the servants and thus run a chance of tuy; being known," "Did it never strike Mm that Mrs. Jersey expected you and would admit you when you rang?" "Yes, it did strike him, but he knew that I didn't want any one to know that she had a visitor so late at night." "I don't know why you. took all these precautions, sir." Derrington smiled dryly, "Perhaps they were rather unnecessary, but 1 thought it best to be ou the sale side. As a matter of fact, I hnd a latch- key." "I thought that Mrs. Jersey never al- lowed latchkeys:" "This one Ramo to me when I bought the house and was given to me by the agent. I told Mrs. Jersey I had it and that I would let myself in. She ex- pected me at 11." "I know she did," said George, "for on that night she asked the boarders to be in bed by 11 and broke up her party at 10. I wondered if she was having any one to meet her then." "Site was expecting tne. It was aft- er 10 when I told Bawdsey, and I ex- plained to bins that I had a latchkey. Ile gave me the whisky, and, being chilled, I drank it. Then I fell asleep." George looked up suddenly. "The whisky was drugged," Ile guessed. "It was," assented Derrington, "and while I was insensible Bawdsey took the latchkey out of my pocket and • put on my cont. He is rather my "How did you learn that, sir?" ask- ed George in surprise.
