CHAPTER XVI—(Continued.)
‘‘He was very excited and rpoke to
Air. Swain in a most violent manner.
Mr. Swain attempted to take me away
from him. not knowing, at first, who
it was had seized me; but I pushed
him back and led my father away to
ward tho house.”
■'Old Air. Swain touch your father?”
"No; I was between them all the
lime. I was determined that they
should not touch each other. I was
afraid, if they came together, that
something terrible would happen.”
Goldberger glanced at me.
“Something terrible to your father?"
he asked.
“Oh, no,” she answered, quickly;
Air. Swain would not have harmed my
father, but father did n*t know what
he was doing, and might have harmed
Air. Swain.”
It was my turn to look at Gold
berger.
“After you left the arbor,” I asked,
“dl$ you see Mr. Swain again?”
“No, I did not see him again.”
"You went straight to the house?”
“Yes; father was still very violent.
He had forbidden me to see Air.
Swain or to wr; " i had
taken a violent
“Do you know .
“Yes,” and she Hushed a little, but
went on bravely. “He believed that
Mr. Swain wished to marry me."
"As, in fact, he did,” I commented.
“Yes; or at least he did before his
financial troubles came. After that he
wished to give me up.”
“But you refused to be given up?”
“Yes,” she said, and looked at me
with eyes beautifully ram a -t. “I re
fused to be given up."
I felt that I was rushing in where
angels would hesitate to enter, and
beat a hasty retreat.
“Was your father always opposed
to your marriage?” I asked.
“No; he has wanted me to wait un
til I was of age; but he never ab
solutely forbade it until a few months
ggo. It was at the time he first tried
to persuade me to become a convert to
Hindu isfo.”

fattier reached the house?”
“Father was very angry and de
manded that I promise never to see
Mr. Swain again. When I refused to
promise, he sent me to my room, for
bidding me to leave it without his per
mission. I came up at once, more than
ever convinced that father needed
medical attention. I was very nervous
and over wrought, and I sat down by
the window to control myself before
going to bed. And then, suddenly, 1
remembered something the yogi had
told me—that father was not strong,
and that a tit of anger might be very
serious. I knew the servants had gone
to bed, and that ho must be down
stairs alone, since I had heard no one
come up.”
"You had heard no One in the hall
at all?” I asked.
“No, I had heard no one. But I re
member, as I started down the stairs,
a curious feeling of dread seized me.
It was so strong that I stood for some
moments on the top step before 1 could
muster courage to go down. At last
I did go down and—and found my
father.”
She stopped, her hands over her eyes,
as though to shut away the remem
brance of that dreadful night.
“Have you strength to tell me Just
what happened. Miss Vaughan?” I
asked gently.
She controlled herself with an ef
fort and took her hands from her
face.
“Yes,” she said, “I can tell you. I
remember that I stood for a moment at
the door, looking about the room, for
at the first glance I thought there
was no one there. I thought, for an
instant, that father had gone into the
grounds, for the curtain at the other
door was trembling a little, as though
some one had just passed.”
“Ah,” I said, and looked at Gold
berger.
“It might have been merely the
breeze, might it not?” he asked.
“I suppose so. The next instant I
saw my father huddled forward in his
chair. I was sure he had had a seiz
ure of some sort; I ran to him and
’ raised his head. • ”
“I do not remember anything more,”
, she added, in a whisper.
For a moment we all sat silent. The
only portion of her evidence which
' could In any way help Swain was her
discovery of the swaying curtain,
and even that, as Goldberger had
pointed out, might easily mean noth
ing.
long a time elapsed from the moment
you left your father in the library un
til you found him?"
“I don’t know. Perhaps 15 minutes.”
"Was lie quite dead when you found
him?”
“Yes, I—I think so.”
“Then,” I said to Goldberger, ’’the
murder must have been committed very
soon after Miss Vaughan came up
stairs."
"Yes,” agreed Goldberger, in a low
tone, "and by somebody who came in
from the grounds, since she met no one
in the hall and heard no one.”
Miss Vaughan leaned toward him,
her hands clasping and unclasping.
“Do you know who it was?” she
gasped. "Have you found out who it
was?”
“We suspect who it was,” ansr/ered
Goldberger gravely.
'Tell me,” sho began,
"Wait a minute, Miss Vaughan,” I
broke in. "Toll nie, first—did you hear
anyone following you across the gar
den?”
"Yes,” she answered thoughtfully:
“once or twice I fancied that someone
was following us. It seemed to me I
heard a step, but when I looked back
I saw no one.”
"Did that fact make you uneasy?”
“No,” she said, with a little smile. “I
thought it was Mr. Swain.”
I saw Goldberger's sodden move
ment. I myself could not repress a lit
tle shudder.
“You thought that would be the
natural thing for Mr. Swain to do, did
you not’.”’ the coroner inquired.
“Yes—I thought he might wish to see
me safe.” Then she stopped, leaning
forward in her chair and staring first
at Goldberger and then at me. ‘What
is it?” she whispered, her hands
against her heart. ”Oh, what is it?
You don’t mean—you can’t mean—oh.
tell mo: It isn’t Fred you suspect! It
can't be Fred:"
If was Dr. Hinman who laid a gentle
and quieting hand upon her shoulder
and it was ills grave voice which
answered her.
"Yes.” he said, "there are some
Fear 2jPW^'^*WWT!<je‘' ,.«r«r»vf‘ >>■ «*-v«vyraa.^:•
14
things which seem to implicate Mr.
Swain; but both Mr. Lester and I are
certain he isn’t guilty. We’re going to
prove it!”
She looked up at him with a grate
ful smile.
“Thank you!” she gasped. "I—wait
a moment—I was silly te give way so.
Of course you will prove it! It's
absurd!” And then she stopped and
looked at Goldberger. “Do you believe
it?” she demanded.
Goldberger flushed a little under her
gaze.
“I don’t know what to believe. Miss
Vaughan,” he said. “I’m searching for
the truth."
“So are we all,” I said. "I am
counsel for Mr. Swain. Miss Vaughan,
and I have come to you, hoping that
your story would help to clear him."
"Oh, I wish it might!” she cried.
"You knew Mr. Swain cut his wrist
as he came over the wall that night ?”
"Yes, he told me. He did’nt know i.t
was bleeding, at first; then he felt the
blood on his hand, and I wrapped his
wrist in my handkerchief.”
"Was tt this handkerchief?” asked
Goldberger, and took from his pocket
the blood stained square and handed it
to her.
She took it with a little shiver,
looked at it, and passed it back to
him.
"Yes,” she said; “that Is It.”
Then she sat upright, her clenched
hands against her breast, staring at
us with starting eyes.
“I remember now!" she gasped. "I
remember now!” I saw It—a blotch of
red—lying on the floor beside my
father’s chair! How did it get there,
Mr. Lester? Had he been there? Did
he follow us?” She stopped again, as
She saw the look in Goldberg's eyes,
and then the look in mine. With a
long, Indrawn breath of horror, she
cowered back into the chair, shaking
from head to foot. 'Oh, what have I
done!” She moaned. "What have I
done!”
There could be no question as to
what she had dene, I told mysel£ bit
terly: she had added another link to
the chain of evidence about her lover.
I could see the same thought In the
sardonic gaze which Goldberger turned
upon me; but before either of us could
say a word, the doctor, with a peremp
tory gesture, had driven us from the
room.
CHAPTER XVII.
THE VERDICT.
Goldberger paused at the stair head
and looked at me, an ironical light in
his eyes. I knew he suspected that
Miss Vaughan’s story *f the handker
chief was no great surprise to me.
‘ Well,” he asked, "will you wish to
put her on the stand?”
I shook my head and started down
the stairs, for I was far fr«m desiring
an argument Just then, but he stopped
me, with a hand upon the sleeve.
"You realize, Mr. Lester,” he said,
more seriously, "that it is plainly my
duty to cause Swain’s arrest?"
"Yes,” I assented. "I realize that.
Under the circumstances, you can do
nothing else.”
He nodded, and we went downstairs
together. I saw Swain’s eager eyes
upon us as we came out upon the
lawn, and his lips were at my ear the
instant I had taken my seat.
"Well?” he whispered.
“She cannot help you,” I said. I did
not think it necessary to say how deep
ly she would hurt him when her testi
mony was called for in open court, as,
of course, it would be.
"And you won’t put her on the
stand?”
"No,” I answered, and he sank back
with a sigh of relief. Then something
in my face seemed to catch his eye,
for he leaned forward again. "You
don’t mean that she believes I did it?”
he demanded hoarsely.
"Oh, no.” I hastened to assure him;
"she says such an accusation Is ab
surd; she was greatly overcome when
she learned that you were even sus
pected; she said. . .
But the coroner rapped for order.
"Have you any other evidence to ln
trduce, Mr. Lester?” he asked.
"No, your honor,” I answered, and I
saw the cloud of disappointment that
j fell upon the faces of reporters and
photographers. To have been able to
' feature Miss Vaughan would have
meant an extra column. I could also
see. from the expression on the faces
of the jury, that my failure to put her
on the stand made an unfavorable Im
pression. There was, Indeed, only one
Inference to draw from it.
Goldberger turned aside for a few
words with the prosecutor, and I sus
pected that lie was telling him of Miss
Vaughan’s discovery of the blood
stained handkerchief; but there was no
way to get the story before the Jury
without calling her. They seemed to
agree, at last, that they had evidence
enough, for the jury was instructed to
prepare its verdict. Its members with
drew a little distance under the trees,
and gathered into a group! to talk it
over.
I watched them for a moment, and
then I turned to Swain.
“1 suppose you know,” I said, "that
they’re certain to find against you?
Even if they don’t, the district attor
ney will cause your arrest right away.”
He nodded.
“I’m not worrying about that. I’m
worrying about Miss Vaughan. You
won’t forget your promise?”
“No.”
“She'll have no one but you,” he went
on rapidly. ’Neither will I! You must
not fail us!”
"I shan’t,” I promised. "But you'd
better think about yourself a Httle,
Swain."
"Plenty of time for that when I’m
sure Marjorie's safe. The minute you
tell me she’s at the Royees’, I’ll begin
to think about myself, i’m not afraid.
I didn’t kill that man. No Jury would
convict me.”
I might have told him that convic
tions are founded on evidence, and that
the evidence in this ease was certainly
against him, but 1 thought it better to
hold my peace. The more confident
he was, the less irksome he would find
imprisonment. So I sat silent until the
: members of the jury filed back Into
] their places.
“Have you reached a verdict, gentle
j men?” the coroner asked, after his
I clerk wad polled them.
"Yes. your honor,” the foreman an
I swerert.
I "What is the verdict?"
The foreman held out a folded paper
] to the clerk, who took It, opened it,
I and read:
I 'We, the jury in the Inquest held this
113th day of June, IDOS, into the death
of one Worthington Vaughan, resid
ing in the Borough of the Bronx. City
of Now York, do find that the de
ceased came to Ms dentil by strangxi
lation at the hands of Frederic Swain.'*
There was an Instant's Rilenye, and
'lien Goldberger turned to the Jury.
"Is this your verdict, gentlemen?” he
asked quietly; and each juryman re
plied hi the affirmative ns his name
was called. “I thank you for your ser
vices,” Goldberger added, directed his
clerk to give them vouchers on the city
treasurer, and dismissed them.
Simmonda and the assistant district
attorney came toward us, and I arose
to meet them. Swain got up, also, and
when I glanced at him I saw that he
was smiling.
“I den’t know whether you have met
Mr. Blake. Mr. Lester," said Slmmonds,
and the prosecutor and I shook hands.
I Introduced him to Swain, hut Swain
did not offer his hand.
“I suppose you’ve come to take me
along?" he said, the smile still on his
lips
‘Trn afraid we'll hare to.”
"Would hall be considered?" I asked.
"I'm afraid not,” and Blake shook his
head. “It Isn’t a bailable offense.”
I knew, of course, that he was right
and that It was of no use to argue ot
protest. Swain turned to me and held
out his hand.
“Then I'll say goodby, Mr. Lester,’
he said “I’ll hope to see you Monday.”
"You shall,” I promised.
"And with good -news,” he added.
"Yes—and with good news."
"Can we give you a lift?” Blake
asked.
“No,” I said, "thank you; but I'm
staying out here for the present.”
I watched them as they climbed Into
a car—Goldberger, Blake, Sknmomla
and Swain; I saw the latter take one
last look at the house; then he waved
to me, as the car turned into the high
road—at least, ho was taking It brave
ly! The coroner’s assistants climbed
Into a second car, and the Sour or five
policemen into a third. Then the re
porters and photographers piled Into
the others, the few stragglers who had
straggled in straggled on again, and In
five minutes the place wan deserted
As I looked around. I was surprised to
see that even Godfrey had departed.
There was something depressing about
the Jumble of chairs and tables, the
I Utter of paper on the grass—something
sordid, ns of a banquet hall deserted
by the diners.
I turned away and started for the
gate; and then, suddenly, I wondered
who was In charge of the house. Who
wouk* give erdors to clear away this
Utter? Who would arsange for the
funeral on the morrow? How could
Miss Vaughan do It, ill as she was?
With quick resolution, I turned back
toward the house. As I did so, I was
surprised to see a man appear at the
edgb of the lawn and run toward me.
It was Hinman.
“I was afraid I’d missed you, ho
said. “Miss Vaughan wishes to see
you. She’s all alone here and needs
Komo helo.”
“Fd thought of that," 1 said, "l was
Just coming to offer it. Is she better'.'’
“Yes, much better. I think she has
realized the necessity of conquering
her nerves. Of course, we must still
be careful.” . , , . ..
I nodded, and followed him Into the
house. Then I stopped In astonish
ment, for Miss Vaughan was sitting In
a chair In the library. She rose as I
entered, came a step toward me and
held out her hand.
”Yeu must not think so badly of mo,
Mr. Lester," she said. “I won't give
wav again, I promise you.”
“You have had a great deal to hear,
I protested, taking her hand in mine.
”1 think you have been very brave. 1
only hope that I can be of some serv
ice to you.” _
“Thank you. I am sure you can. Let
us all sit down, for we must have quite
a talk. Dr. Hlnman tells me that I
shall need a lawyer.”
“Undoubtedly," I assented. “Your
father’s estate will hpve to be settled,
and that can only be done In the courts.
Besides, in the eyes of the law, you
are still a minor."
"Will you be my lawyer, Mr. Lester?'
“It will be a great privilege," I an
swore*!.
“Then we will consider that settled ?”
“Yes,” I agreed, "we will consider
that settled.”
“But It is not business I wish to dis
cuss today,” she went on, quickly.
•“There are other things more urgent.
1 First, I wish to get acquainted with
you. Have you not wondered, Mr. Les
ter, why It was that I chose you to de
liver my letter?”
"I suppose It was because there was
no one else,” I answered, looking at
her In some astonishment for the way
she was rattling on. The color was
coming and going In her cheeks and
her eyes were very bright. I wondered
If she had escaped brain fever, after
all.
"No," she said, smiling audaciously,
"it was because I liked your face—I
knew you could be trusted. Of course,
for a moment I was startled at seeing
you looking down at me from a tree. I
wondered afterwards how you came to
be there.”
“Just Idle curiosity,” I managed to
stammer, my face very hot. "I am
sorry If I annojfed you.”
"Oh, but it was most fortunate,” she
protested; “and a great coincidence,
too, that you should be Mr. Swain’s
employer, and able to get hold of him
at once,"_______________
