I.OUUo had li'-rj In mo.
Crandall had horn in the house. Pho
had seen him. .Slip hud left hip to
join him. She had even deserted her
helpless sister and her dting father
ro go with him. And all the while her
iips had protested that no one had
been in tiie house bnt the doctors and
nurses.
Ar l pared the platform nod pared
it bark again, waiting two weary hours
'or an Ardv.ay train, as T sat for two
unending hours more in the long ride
hrough New Jersey, like a poisoned
knife, cutting my heart to shreds an<l
rutting the shreds again, the thought
:ept coming hack to me over and
■rer: “She lie-1 to me."
Quarter a n an alive, pour molten
rctal into his eyeballs, f<td him salt
• sh and cut off water, bury him alive
ti quicklime, devise what torture yen
ill and double it, ihr pain a-id agony
•an not e-pinl that which cent's *o a
nan who, believing in and trusting
ud loving a woman with his whole
.< art. is forced to afdmit to himsUf
iiat she has deceived him—-hat sht
,as lied to him. In those awful hours
I came to know the seven hells, i
• cut through till of them.
Only one ray of comfort came to
ne. As I had asked myself "Why did
he lie?" I found myself believing that
he had done so, not of her own free
ill, but impelled by some motive so
•owerful that she could no! resist it.
I'hat it was the influence of Crandall
i could no doubt. He had so preyed
n her fears for her father and sister,
rhaps on her fear for ntp, that he
.ad induced her to try to persuade me
:> give up my investigation and had
made her promise to accompany him
jii some doubtful secret mission.
"It is tint my secret."
I recalled (he piteous cry my en
‘rcaties had wrung from her lips, and
outid the logical explanation of it in
ter having been terrorised by that
villain, Crandall. If I could have found
dm at the moment I could have killed
dm with my naked hands.
Yet even though 1 was convinced
hat Louise had lied to me, 1 began le
eel that whatever she had done, what
■ur she was now doing, was in the
aelief that she was acting for the best
dor her dear ones, for me.
My duly to her, my duty to myself,
i reasoned,, demanded that I do my
utmost to solve the hideous mystery
uud free her from the fear that I was
sure was responsible for her strange
actions. I swung off the train al Ard
way and hastened to the hotel, eager
o iell Davis what 1 had learned about
.he movements of Hugh Crandall, but
ai\is was not there. All that 1 could
• mu was that he liad hired a horse
ae buggy early in tile morning and
'*d driven off in the direction taken
i>’ Crandall the day before.
"If he is following Crandall's trail,"
aid 1 io myself, "he is just a day i *><’
j
So long as Davis was not about 1
• «viiled i might ar, well see if the miu
iog postmaster bad been found. As I
walked up the street I could not help
thinking how dumfouuded Davis wonbl
be when he returned from his fruit
less chase for Crandall and ILtend
ic» my tale of Crandall’s actions. While
lie had advised against my return to
the city, he would have to admit that
it had not been without result.
As I entered the post-office I.found
that Miss Cox was still in charge.
Vnnroaehing the letter window, I ba<’a
her good afternoon and asked if there
I was any news of the missing postrrrv
liT. It was l£tc La tite cfioriipori and
the Inst mail for the <l->v having hern
distributed, slip sat cr lug. Site
motioned to ire to c. r.ie , .end to
he rear door.
"How nh'-nt i,'”, T ashed as T en
tered the ofThe, ''lias anything been
heat’d of Houser?”
She shook lit r head.
"That’s about the eighty-ninth 'Into
I've answ.' red that question to day.
Seems like the whole town was in
here wanting to know.”
“Has the post-ofRce inspector been
here?”
‘‘He was in here this morning and
made just the routine examination. He
"Has Anything Bern Heard C'
Rouser?"
; ■ t
didn’t sirlt rn (’m otions, 1 bough 1 un
derstand he has been sbuithin i
i around u|> in Widow Smith's, wiser*
j Charlie Houser boards. If lie's tonkin"
! for anything wrong with ('bailie's hc
j counts it’s my private opinion that h
■ ain’-t going to find it. I've been at
. over the books twice today and (pen
ain't anything out i f the way.”
j “Have you any idra where all (hr
i money came from that we found hi
| hind die cash-drawer?”
“No, and I don't see that it's any <
my affair. Kis hooks is right, and hi
stamps and ids stamped envelopes i
all accounted for. Maybe he made i
in Wall street, or maybe snmebod'
left it there with him for safe-kee]
ing.”
As I recalled Davis' parting lnstrut
tions to me when I had first com
out to Ardway, I was more, and mot
surprised that he had not investigal
ed further at the post-office. He ha
seemed to think that the clue to tit
whole mystery would be found ther»
and he had particularly charged.mi
to find out to whom Lock Box No. 1* |
had been rented. I decided to as'
.Miss Cox if she knew anything about it
“Seven'een has never been rente'
as long as 1 have had anything to d<
' with the office. It is away off then
in tile corner where it is hard to set
into. There’s always been mnr<
boxes than there was any call for. Not
one of them in the lower row ever bar
been rented, even in summer, whet
there's a lot of city folks out here.”
“Do you ever remember of seeing
any mail addressed to that box?”
She worked Industriously at he.
crocheting for a minute nr two before
replying and then, putting it aside, said
thoughtfully:
“it's funny that you should have
asked me that.”
“Why?”
“I don’t know that I’ve any busi
ness telling you,” said Miss Cox, as
she debated with herself whether or
not she was talking too much, “but l
am as anxious as anybody to find out
wliat’s become of Charlie Houser, and
from what I've seen of you I guess
you’re a sight more likely to find him
than Jim !>"bhs, (lie onnstable If I
wasn’t sure in my own mind that Char
lie hadn’t done nothing out m the way.
i I don't know as I'd oven he telling
you about it. it’ll since you've asked
ire, I gv.ess 1 will."
She hestiaUd, studying my fane as
if trying to is ad there whether or not
I meant harm to the missing post
master. I tp'ed not to exhibit undue
interest, though inwardly I felt quite
j :Hh*nt. I was eerinin that I was on
tin track of important revelations.
"I.» i me see.” site continued, “it was
i week ago Tuesday tn>. it was Wed
m sday, for 1 went ovet to my sister's
Tuesday at 1 Mr Houser left word
for me. and I found it waiting for mo
when I came hark, lie asked me to
e me over and take the otlb o for the
day. i was surprised when I come
over litre to open up to find him here,
for I'd understood that lie was going,
to lie gone at' day. He explained Mint
lit didn’t have to go fill alter Hie mail

hit, stock Idlers. There was no let
th.in four good-sized bundles of letter,
lii in New York. Houser was sorting
lie lot ers and 1 was handling the
second class and the papers. 1 goi
through wilh that and picked up the
last bundle of letters. In It was no
’ as than six letters addressed to Lock
Box 17 'Seecti'ecu's rented at last,'
says I, thinking it funny that I didn't
Know th« name on them, Henry Mai
cMm Stewart. Who's got it? 'I’ll tal:t
charge of them,’ says he. taking the
l< Mi rs right out of my hand before 1
had a chance to look at the postmarks
m anything 1 noticed, too, that he
didn't put tin in in the box, but jammed
them into his pocket along with a lot
of other loners lie had. 1 couldn't
sr.v who the other letters was ad
dressed to. for 1 didn’t eel a chanee
to see them. They might have been
his ov.il, for all 1 know. Hut 1 couldn’t
help thinking that the only reason he'd
waited till the mail was distributed
v as to get hold of them Lock Box 17
le'ters. As soon as he got them he.
wept away, and he didn’t come back
till af'er closing time."
"Have you any idea where he went?”
‘ When I come over here that day I
supposed he was going to the city, but
a few rninu es after he left the office I
saw him driving past in one of the
livery rigs.”
"Which direction did he go?” 1
asked, feeling more and more sure
that I had struck the right trail. In
; II probability this young fellow in the
post office was merely an innocent tool
of Crandall. He had driven off some
where to meet Crandall and give him
the Lock Flox 17 letters, for 1 was con
vinced that Stewart was merely an !
alias of the villain who had b' oil send
ing out the yellow letters. If I could
barn where the postmaster had gore
on this visit, I might he able to find
him now.
' livery time Charlie Houser goes ;
driving,” said Miss Cox, ‘‘lie always |
goes that way," indicating the opposite I
direction from the station "1 shouldn't j
he surprised in the least if he v as i
keeping company with pome faiinei s
daughter.”
A sudden light rnmo into per exes
and a smile of satisfaction spread nyer
her face.
"Land alive, i never thought of it
hefnie." she exclaimed, "but I'd hot
anything he's gone off to got mnt
ried.”
"Hardly liko’y," said !. "He wouldn’t
go off and leave the office ungtmri'.r d
without telling any one. And he
wotildn t leave fixe thousand dollars
lying there in the drawer.”
"That's just what he xvnuld do. I'll
hot he had a windfall of sonio sort
and the minute he got the money in
his bands he just couldn’t wait to go
and toll the girl."
“Somebody would have known "it if
he got a horse at the livery stable,
would they not?”
“Oh, that's neither here nor thcie.
He might have gone on Ids bicycle.
He generally keeps it oxer there in
Hie corner, and it ain't there now'."
“It might he up at his boarding
house."
“ll might he,” pat’! Miss Cmt.
It rnme to me that if Davis had
thought it worth while to go to the
Widow Smih’s to make inquiries, it
might ho worth my while, too After
asking Miss Cox for direction-*. I told
iior I was going to sop if Rouser's
wheel w.is missing, and made my way
up one of the side streets to the
hoarding-house. Davis' visit ei identic
had ruffled the widow, I found hoi
n anything bill a commnnioa'ivi
rood.
"If you're another of those deter
ive men coming prying around here,’
lie said, “you might just as well get
ut. I've said all I'm going to say
■ud that's all there is to it.”
"l’lease don’t mistake me for a dr
eetive,' I said as pleasantly as I
mild. "I'm a friend of Miss Dot.
lown to the popt-office and we were
condoling whether Charlie had take;
iis bicycle when h« went away, and
•liss Cox thought you might know.”
"If you’re a friend of Jennie Cox.'
aid Mrs. Smith, "1 guess I'd be like!
o know’ it, being her own cousin atm
nowing as well as I know my own
ace that she hasn't had a man friend
or eleven years, since Aleck Thomp

iway on his bicycle, 1 don't know
ofhliig about It. All I know is hi"
wheel aiti'l here, but he never kept
it here anyway. lie always kept It
| (town to the post-office.”
With that she slammed the dooi
in my face, hut I went away well sat
isfled. As I walked down the dust
path of the so-called street towar
tlie hotel I reviewed all I had learner
and was delighted to think how
a moved Davis would he v lien i pr*
seated my facts gatlietert (n ti,P
twenty.four hours, w hi< h were these
Hugh Crandall was aware that w*
w ere on Ills trail.
Pnahle to learn anything from I on
ise over the telephone, lie had dared
to go-»to the Parrish home.
He had so intimidated Rnulse that
Dio had asked me to withdraw hi mi, i
from the Inquiry,
Acting on her fears, he had pprsuad
ed her to accompany him to soun
place in New Jersey.
I .or k Pox 17 was Used for the mail
of some cue who had taken the alias
of Henry Malcolm Stewart
AH the mail that came to that nil
dress was taken care of by CltarMi
Houser, the postmaster.
Rouser was in the habit of golnr
at frequent Intervals either on his
bicycle (it in a buggy out on the road
that led away from Ihe station.
Rouser, when he disappeared, tin
donhtcdly had gone away on his hi
cycle.
Everything, to my mind, pointed to
his having gone to meet Crandall.
How to account for the fart that,
Roiigpr had not returned wap still a
poser to me. but as 1 reviewed Cran
dall's connection with the chain of
persons who had been driven to death
t found rrvself believing that it was
not at all out of the range of p< i
biiit.v for Crandall to have made away
with Rouaer for fear of betrayal. From
all I had learned about the missing
postmaster, I was convinced that he
was weak rather than vicious, and I
frit that he probably was an innocent
party to tlie nefarious plot of the yel
low letters. Davis' story that it. v as a
crime of two ‘persons, after all, was
only a theory. When the mystery was
cleared up I was positive that the only
criminal who would be uncovered
would be Hugh Crandall. 1 shudder* d
r.s I recalled that Louise even now was
somewhere with him, not exactly
clone, to he sure, for the car w„s
driven by her chauffeur, but still 't
was a most disconcerting thought.
As 1 approached the hotel 1 saw a
buggy stop before it, the occupants of
which were Davis and the constable.
As Davis dismouned 1 heard him say
to the constable:
“Tonight at eight."
‘‘I'll be on hand, you bet,” sa'd the
constable as he drove off.
I quickened my steps and overtook
Davis just as he started up the stairs
to his room.
"I've got some great news for you,”
I whispered ana went on up with him.
The minute he got Into the room he
flung himself on the bed, us if utterly
worn out, and ligh ed a cigarette. I
had exjK-cted that he would be eager
to question me hut flits did nol seem
to lie the case. He lay there with eyes
half closed as if unaware of my pres
ence.
Annoyed as T was at h's seeming in
difference, i was sure that when I told
him my amazing news about Crandall
and my discoveries about the post
master lie would be effectually
aroused. I took it for granted that his
mood was due to despondency over
liis failure to find either of them.
“1 have seen Hugh Crandall twice,
no, three times, today,” I said by way
of . hoginning, "and I have found '‘111
how ftnnsei wont when h° left the
pool office "

"What's more,” 1 pried tmpaMetitlr,
"1 know who had t .ulr Rnx Vo 17 I
know what was done with the mall

Davis, without answering n e,
reached for another cigarette, light
ing it from the butt lie had been Flunk
| 'ng. His nonchalant Indifference
stated on my nerves and 1 lost my
temper.
"Confound It, Kent,” he said with
considerable asperity, "I was so busy
thinking out something I realty didn't
hear what you said. Sit down and
tell me all about It."
Mollified by his apology, I sat down
rm the foot of the h*’d anfi told him the
story of my day, how t had seen a
man going Into the Fsrrlsh home and
had recognized him later as Hugh
Crandall, or at least as the man who
had registered at the hotel as Cook;
how I had been barred from the house;
how- I had discovered another yellow
letter suicide In the park; how-, when
I returned to the Parrish home after
J Crandall had left. Ionise had told me
of the theft of the scrap of yellow pa

me to go off in her automobile after
insisting that 1 drop the Investigation;

j “I have put King booze down for
the count. It was my hardest fight
and my best knockout, and I'll never
give him another chance for the
title. I'm retired—and this time

liquor enters my body. It's been
three years since I had one. Ilj be
a million years an angel before l
