Quirk as was my dash toward the hedge screening ttie kitchen entrance of the Uurkee home and I pride my self upon my ability to move swiftly and noiselessly—I was not able to discover the source of the mysterious, furtive rustling which I had heard when I had stepped from the side door ready for my trip to the bank. T reached the hedge and went through the opening to the other side, but there was no trt\ce of either human being or animal. With the ex ception of Mrs. Durkee's cat, sitting contemplatively in the sunshine st least 20 feet front the hedge. With a little smile of derision at my ener getic Investigation, I decided that either the cat must have been respon sible for the rustling or that my imagination, in Dicky's parlance, had been "working overtime again." Retracing my steps to the front of the house, I walked rapidly out of the yard and down the old main street of Marvin, so familiar to me, to the bank, where I cashed a check for $100, the money for which Mother Graham had asked. Tucking the hills away in my purse, I hurried back to the house to Mother Graham's room, where I found her sitting by the window overlooking the garden, where I had placed her before going to the hank. She did not look up ss I entered and I saw that she was bending for ward, looking intently out of the window. I came close enough to touch her before she realised that I was In the room, but, characteristi cally, she gave no sign of surprise when she saw me. "Did Ton Get It?” “Did you get it?" she demanded, and at. my affirmative nod she stretehed out her hand imperatively. "Give it to me, quick," she said, and where I had obeyed her she counted the bills and thrust them into her dress wtlh a horrible little air of avidity utterly foreign to her. "Thank you," she said perfunctorily, and then beckoned me closer to the window. "Do you see anything moving away '■ -■ .'-' --- out tht'rebeyolul tue rose garoen ai our old place'."’ she whispered as if she feared some one would hear her. [ looked searching]}- in the direc tion she indicated, but there was no movement that I could discern, and I told her so. , "I'm sure I’m not mistaken,” she said stubbornly. ’’I’ve been watching here ever -since you went. The people next door went away for the week end, so there's nobody there to look after things, and there might ho all sorts of people lurking around, for all anybody knows.” “What did you think you ,saw, mother?” I asked perfunctorily. "If I knew, do you think I'd be sitting here like a Jumping jack on a string?'’ she snapped, and I made the mental amused note that she must he getting hotter, for there was no trace of the sweet humility with which she had talked to me during the hours of the previous day. “It won't strain your efes to look out there for a while, will It?” she went on with what she patently meant for heavy sarcasm, and I promptly moved nearer to the win dow!} “There is something out there In those hushes!” I exclaimed a minute later, for I, too, had seen a slight movement of the shrubbery, undts cernible, I w-as sure, to any one not watching for it. “I’ll go right down and find out what it is, but it prob ably is some animal.” She clutched my dress frantically as I moved past her and her eyes were filled with the terror I had seen in them when she first told me that she was "in terrible trouble." “No, no," she said tensely. “You mustn't go down there. You don't know what might happen to me. Watt—tili—tomorrow and I'll go with you." A riedge to Avoid. If it were not for my very real concern for her I could havd smiled at her patent belief that she would he efficient protection for me, but I suppressed all amusement, and also put aside, for the moment sny idea of going down Into the shrubbery. I knew that if I evinced the slightest Indication of going ah* would insist upon wresting a promise from me to keep away from the woodland, a pledge which 1 was most anxious not to make. "I think both of us are getting e.xcited over nothing," I said non chalantly. "Suppose you let me bring your chair over here by the Are and away from the window. At least, whatever is out there won’t come up here." My mother-in-law looked up at me wit'll widened eyes. • "[ never thought oft that," she faltered. "Suppose he does’."
