II.
My feelings as I left Mr. Trolim and en-
ercd the dark portions of the road were
ontuscd and varied. I was not afraid , nor
was 1 exactly oisy , though I carried. ! pistol ,
lalf-cocked , In my side pocket. I expected
0 encounter some one or something out of
lie ordinary , and moved hurriedly on , though
vlth great circumspection.
It was a bright day , as I have said , and
a another mood I would 1me enjoyed the
cenery. Now , however , I was on the look-
ut for the Knollys mansion and tool ; no
imo to observe ths wild beauties about me.
'Inally , without premonition or adventure of
ny kind , I came upon It , a great , gaunt ,
neglected building of colonial tlmo , whose
first appearance aw olio a tremor , and from
Nhlch on closer Inspection no suggestion
ame sa\e that which breathed of decay and
death. Yet It was a , home , ns more than one
ndlcatlon showed , and once had been a
courtly one , with possibilities of aristocratic
splendor.
A grove of half-decayed trees separated
t from the road , and th effect produced
'rom those may h\ve partially accounted
'or the special aspect I have mentioned. At
east I was willing to think so , and was
about to seek a way through the tangled
underbrush which everywhere hindered my
steps , when I heard a sharp whistle , and ,
ooklng up , saw a young man emerge from
the open doorway. He was calling to some
dogs , who Immediately appeared and began
to leap about him , and as he did not sec
me , though the dogs did , I had ample op
portunity to study his face.
U was a good-natured but wholly common-
: > lace one , and from the fact that he did not
lote the distraction apparent In his dog :
1 drew the conclusion that he was not over-
jurdened with acuteness. Had the sisters ,
then , all the brains of the family ? I was
determined to flnd out as soon as I should
encounter any ono more willing to talk about
them than Mr. Trolim.
Meantime the young man had remained
Impassive and the dogs merely restive ; and ,
strange as It may appear , I experienced a
vague disappointment at being allowed to
pass the gate of this house , and eventually
: o leave It far behind me without any ad
venture to warrant the apprehension dls-
ilayed by my host and my late entertainer ,
Mr. Trohm.
On my return to the tavern I made Mr.
Simmons my confidant , and was astonished
at the effect which was produced upon him
jy the name of Knollys. Though he tried
to bide it , there was evidently some reason
n his own mind for not being startled by
ihls association of their name with the possi
ble crimes I was Investigating ; and when I
jrged him to be frank , he allowed , with an
Impulsive burst of feeling , that there had
always been something wrong with the
Knollys ; and , urged still further , broughl
out a letter he had received some few
months since from Ills daughter , who was a
liospital nurse In Denver , and laid It before
me ,
"There , " said he. "Sophia won't like It ,
ljut such facts as you will find written there
ought not to be kept fcccrct. I thought seat
at the time , and I think so all the more
now that these disappearances have accumu
lated In our town till we are afraid to move
through our own woods aft ° r dark. "
Astonished to bo offered a clue In a let
ter written from Denver , I did not reply u
this burst , but hastened to open the foldcc
sheets before me and to read the following
remarkable lines :
Dear Father I have Just heard a porfectlj
unexplalnable thing about the Knollys. The
person who told mo was a Miss Grant , whc
visited them about Christmas time. She I :
a patient of mine and when she heard I was
from Cushlng , was so startled and showei
so much agitation that I Insisted upor
knowing why , when she related the follow
ing slory ;
Her father and the Knollys' father hat
been lifelong friends and though the youn ;
people had never met there had always beei
an understanding between them that Mis :
Grant should sometime make a visit t <
Cushlng. This was brought about last December
comber and Miss Grant , with the ful
knowledge of the Knollys girls , arrived Ir
town early one Wednesday afternoon am
was driven directly to their door. She ex
pected a cordial welcome , but she notlcei
before she was half way up the steps tha' '
something was amiss. One sister only wai
In the hall to greet her and that sister wa1
abstracted and palo and looked oftener be
hind her and upstairs than at her newlj
arrived guest. Mlsa Grant was not cvci
asked to take off her wraps , till overcome bj
the heat of the sitting room Into whlcl
they had stepped , she herself loosened hei
furs , at which Lucetta I think it was Lu
cetta who received her seemed to recovei
her wits and tried to play the hospitabli
hostess , but with such 111 success that Mlsi
Grant was almost tempted lo resume hei
furs and return to Kulmlngham station
Something , however , In her young hostess
eye restrained her , and endeavoring not t (
notice the other's preoccupation she talkei
rapidly on every available topic till tl
other sister came In. Miss Knollys , as yet
know , la a grave person , but very pleasani
and attractive. She won upon Miss Gram
at once , but for all that her presence dli
not greatly relieve the situation , for hei
first glance was directed toward her sister
who Instantly bounded up and left tin
room and not till they were alone did shi
seem to notice her guest , whom she thei
greeted warmly , but with that same air o
abstraction and constraint which had bcoi
so painfully observable In Lucetta.
Miss Grant had expected that she wouh
now bo taken to her room , but on the con
trary Miss Knollys sat down and with at
apologetic air Informed'her of how sorr ;
she felt that she could not show her tin
preclso attentions she wished. Clrcum
stances , she said , over which they had nt
control had made It Impossible for them ti
offer her the guest chamber , but If shi
would be so good as to accept another fo
that ono night they would try and accommo
date her more properly thereafter.
Miss Grant , who had noticed the povert ;
evident in the house , broke In with th
generous assurance that any room would b
acceptable to her , and still expecting to b
taken upstairs , began to gather up he
wraps. But Miss Knollys again surprise ,
her by saying that her room was not ready
that they had not been able to complete al
their arrangements and prayed that sh
would make herself at homo where sh
was till evening. More and more as
tonlshed and disconcerted , but hiding I
bravely for the sake of the pitiful look 1
the girl's eye , Mlsa Grant laid down he
furs again and endeavored to make the bes
of the somewhat trying situation. Sh
talked and she laughed , though she me
with but little response , noting all that wa
odd In her unaccountable reception , bu
giving no evidence of her concern or secre
Indignation. Hut let mo toll the rest In he
own words as I remember them.
The peculiarities observable In my re
ceptlon continued all day , said Miss Grant
AVhen ono sister came In the other wen
out and when dinner time arrived and I wa
ushered down the bare and dismal hall Int
an equally bare and unattractive dlnln
room It was to flnd Lucetta only seated a
the head of the board. She made soni
apology for the fact , but It was so evident !
an evasive ono that I scarcely heard It an
kept looking at the empty place where th
brother should sit. wondering If he were a
the bottom of my strange reception. Du
as If to dispel this supposition , he present !
came In , and though It was my first meetln
with the nominal head of the house Lucett
waited for a short nod from him befor
giving me the necessary Introduction ,

their actions I should have taken little If
any Interest la him. As Itas I watched
him for \\Imt ho might do or my , but
learned nothing save that he was excessively
Btupld.
The evening , like the afternoon , as spent
In the sitting room with ono of the slaters.
I had become excessively tired of a com cr
eation that nlunys langulHheJ no nnttcr on
what topic it was started , nnd observing on
ohl piano in one corner I sat down before It
and Impulsively struck n few chords from
the yellow kejs. Instantly Lucetta It was
Lucetta who was with mo then bounded
to my side with a look of horror en her
face.
"Don't do that ! " she cried , lajltifc her
hand on in I no to stnp me. Then see-Ing mo
recoil at her touch , \\hlch was Icy cold , she
added with an appealing smile , "I beg par
don , but every sound goes through mo to
night. "
"Aro you not well ? " I asked.
"I am uovcr very well , " she returned ;
and wo went back to the sofa and renewed
our forced nnd pitiful conversation.
Promptly nt 9 o'clock Miss Knollys came
In. She was very pale and cast as usual a
sad ami uneasy look at her sister before she
Bpoko to mo. Immediately Lucetta rose ,
and becoming very palo herself , wai hurryIng -
Ing toward the door when her sister stopped
her.
"You have forgotten , " she said , "to say
good night to our guest. "
Instantly Lucetta turned and. with a sud
den , uncontrollable. Impulse , seized my hand
and pressed It convulsively.
"Good night , " she cried , "I hope you will
sleep well , " nnd was gene bcforo I could
say a word In response.
"Why doe * Lucetta go out of the room
when you come In ? " I asked , determined
to know the reason for this peculiar con
duct. "Have you any other guests In the
house ? " ,
The reply came with unexpected ve
hemence. "No , " she cried , "why should you
think so ? There Is no one hero but the
family. " And she turned away with a cer
tain dignity which cut short all further re
marks. "You must be very tired , " she said.
"If you please , we will go now to your
room. "
I rose at once , glad of the prospect of
being relieved from these forced attentlo.is.
She took my wraps on her arm and we
passed Immediately Into the hall. As wo
did BO I heard voices , one of them shrill and
full of distress , but the sound was so quickly
smothered by a closing door that I failed
to discover whether that tone ot suffering
proceeded from a man or a woman.
Miss Knollys , who was preceding me ,
glanced back In soiu ? alarm. Dut as I gavr >
no token of having noticed anything on' of
the ordinary , she speedily resumed > > er way
upstairs. As the sounds I .had heard hnd
proceeded from above , I did not follow her
with much alacrity. But rellectlng tl.at
whatever was going on In this house. It
could by no possibility have any reference
to myself , I resumed my courage , which ,
however , perceptibly weakened when I found
m > self passing door after door down a long
hall to a room as remote as possible from
what seemed to bo the living portion of the
house.
"Won't I have any one near me , " I began ,
as my young hostess paused and waited for
me to join her on the threshold ot the most
forbidding room It had ever been my fortune
to enter.
"Oh , " she smiled , "you need not bo afraid.
Nothing can happen to you here ; I am cnly
sorry that wo are obliged to offer you huch
mean lodging. Hut all our other rooms are
are out of order , " she explained , firmly , "and
to our great regret you will have to sleep In
this one for tonight. "
"Hut cannot I sleep with one ot you ? " I
persisted. "I won't put you to any Incon
venience. I am not accustomed to bo put
off by myself. "
"I am sorry. " she again repeated , "but It
Is quite Impossible. It I could give you the
comforts you are accustomed to. I should be
glad. Hut we are unfortunate , wo glrh ,
and " She said no more , but began to
busy herself about the room , which I tried
to see In as favorable a light as I could.
Perhaps she saw my failure In my face
perhaps she felt herself the dreariness of the
gray , discolored walls , which the fire that
had been lit on the hearth did not serve

to lighten , f.r she pointed to a bell rope
near the head of the he-1 and kindly re
marked :
"It anything disturb * you , pull that. It
communicates with my loom , and I will
como at once and speak to you. "
I glanced up at the rope , ran my eye along
tha wire communicating with It , and saw
that It was broken faheer oft before it even
entered the wall.
"I am afraid you will not hear me , " 1
answered , pointing to the break.
She flushed a deep scarlet , and for a mo
ment looked as embarrassed as over hei
sister had done.
"I did not know , " she murmured. "The
house I * so old , everything U more or less
out of repair. " And she made haste to qull
the room.
I ran after her In alarm.
"But there Is no key to the door , " I ob
Jectcd.
She came back -with a look almost lllti
anger on her stern face.
"What do fear " she cried. "

a public house where you would be liable ti
intrusion. You are In a prhatc dwelling
my dear , and good God ! " she murmured
beneath her breath , but not BO low bu
that my excited sense caught the word :
she uttered. "Can she have heard any
thing ? Has the reputation of this placi
gene abroad ? Miss Grant , " she repeatei
more loudly , "you are as safe hero as ;
babe on Its mother's knee. Nothing threat
ens you , nor need you have the least fca
whether the night passes In quiet or whcthc
it Is broken by unaccustomed sounds. The ;

Her look , her manner were oncouraglni
and for a moment I felt n&hamed of my fool
Ish tremors. What It I were banished ti
a remote corner in a dismal and strange ) ;
ordered house ! Was I not under the pro
tectlon of two amiable girls , daughters o
my father's oldest friend ? Certainly in ;
conduct was ridiculous and could but add t <
Miss Knollys' trouble.
Taking her by the hand , I craved he
pardon , and begging her to have no mor
concern about me , I returned to my roon
and carefully closed the door. Dut n
sooner did I find myself thus shut In thai
all iny vague doubts returned and I waul
have given anything for the mcanext an
smallest apartment In a crowded countr ;
tavern with normal commonplace people.
Hut my fate was to be shut In , In thl
den ot darkness and discomfort , and
forced myself to make the beat of It.
The candle which she had brought wit
her and set down on a Email table by th
hearth was too short to last long anothe
circumstance which did not add to my hap
plnesa , whllo the fire was- one ot those llgh
and flashy onoa meant only to bun

prospect of a dark and colt ) room. If m ;

irepanxl myself for the night , merely yield-

rent of the door ; then I lay down , ami
with the light still burning , fell fast asleep.
H must have been after midnight that I

quick turn which made mo n prisoner ,

A murmur ofolces quickly suppressed

all was as still as l no sound had arisen
o disturb the midnight. I cowered , how-
ver. for many minutes longer ngalnit the
leer , and then , stiff with thp cold and
iliiided by the darkness , for my candla had
eng ago burned out. I groped my way to
ho chair where I had laid my clothes and
ipgan with trembling fingers to dress my
self.

o listen , but bc > end the faint fall of a dls-
ant footstep , or the smothered Bound o !
\hlsperlng voices , I heard nothing , though
My tongue became lurnlszed nnd I sank to ( ho"
ground In terror.
every liber In my body tohl mo that some
Irenilful thing hnil happened , ami that that
event , whatever It vvus , hail been a pre-
neclltated one , or why had my door been
ocked.
Allvu to my Helplessness nnd recalling ferny
ny comfort the parting assurance of Miss
ICnollys that nothing which might occur
would have any reference to mjsolf , I snt
ilown In my clothes nnd waited with mingled
liopo and dread for daybreak.
13ut 1 had miscalculated my amount of
nerve. I could not sit thus passively for
lioura , and jumping up at last I pushed
my boJ aside and laid my hand on the knob
of the door to bee If the latter wcro really
'astened. I found that It was nnd not
mowing what to do with myself I leaned
aaglnst the llntol and listened , counting my
own heartbeats and vaguely hoping that
somewhere In the house a clock would soon
strike , telling me the hour.
Hut no such relief came ; on the con
trary , the leaden momenta wont by without
a sound to relieve them and I was begin
ning to < mery whether It would uot bo bet
ter for mo to avail myself of the warmth of
my bed than to stand any longer shivering
on the bare floor when a faint noise , the
llrst I had heard In some tlmo , came from
without and the Btealthy footfall returned
to my door , paubcd a moment , during which
I hold my breath and almost stopped my
heart's beating ; then the key was again In
serted , turned and drawn wit , leaving mo
again In communication with the family.
My llrst Instinct was to open the door ,
call out to the person who was gliding off
and ask what had happened. Dut natural
timidity restrained mo , and not till the step
had quite disappeared did I venture to open
the door and glvo ono quick look down tha
tunncl-llko hall.
Darkncsa and darkness only met my
eyes , and halting between the fear of what
that darkness Inclosed and the phantoms ot
dread and horror with which my room was
peopled I stood halting on the threshold
when a sound of distant sobbing reached
my car , sounding so pitifully In the dismal
sllenco that , forgetting my own fears , tor-
gottlng the canso I had to dread that
stretch of shutup rooms bcforo me , I dashed
lightly Into the darkness and sped without
thought or reason In the direction from
which those tokens of grief had Eccmed to
como.
But this strange house la anything but
simple In Its construction and before I had
gone many steps I realized that I had left
the main hall and was lost In another and
a smaller one. from which I did not know
how to emerge In the profound darkness.
The sobs had ceased , so I had nothing to
guide me , and a prey once more to the hor"
rors of my situation I turned and ( led back
as fast as a complete Ignorance of my
whereabouts allowed. With ono hand on
the wall at my side I hastened on till I catno
to a turn , and , taking- for ono I had In
advertently made a few minutes before , I
whirled to the right and groped on , breath
less and p-intlug , till I came lo an open
door.
As this was located Just whore I had
expected to find my own I rushed In and
shut It behind me , and still groping , found
the bed , which seemed a long way .from the
door ( longer than it had when I sought It
before ) and was In the act of feeling for the
pillow when my hand came In contact with
something so dreadful , so bloodcurdling and
unexpected that my lips opened In a hor-
rlllcd shriek , which terror nevertheless
stifled In my throat.
I had touched the clay-cold face of a
corpse.
