The distress of jealousy that Gloria
felt it the thought of Doctor Royce'
i smiling and waving at someone else
i i had had a pleasant tang, for jealousy
; I is a phase of love. But now Gloria
' stared at Royce with abhorrence. He
j was repulsive in her eyes as he ran
.! i toward her in pursuit of the boy Stas,
.; then checked himself and watched her
with guilty apprehension when he saw
i she recognized the envelope in her
i j hinds. Gloria sent the boy away, told
j him tp run to his mother. She wanted
j to be rid of him for the time.
i ' "Give it to you 1" Gloria cried. "What
i fioyce pleaded.
1 ' Give it you!" Gloria cried. "What
f right have you to it? I know whose
a- I ' it was. I know that it was Dick's.
i I Therefore it is mine and I'm going to
5 keep it."
j I ' Better not," he stammered, his fac-
j ulties in such a panic that his hat fell
; itom his hand. He stooped to pick it
up. his back to Gloria.
I ' , The envelope she held had sud
denly revived her memories as clear
as reality.' Her first memory was of
the scene in her room when she
snatched the envelope from Dick
Freneau and teased him with it, never
dreaming what it contained. Next she
saw anew that scene in front of the
Soldiers' and Sailors' monument
which she had witnessed through
binoculars. Once more she beheld the
monument in the moonlight and the
snowlight; the man in evening dress,
with his collar, up and his hat down,
skulking in the shadows; then the ap
pearance of Trask, the unexpected
coming of Dick Freneau, his pause to
light his cigarette while Gloria from
afar helplessly watched the assassin
creep up on him and throttle him to
death.
..Trask. vanished and the skulker
came by again, stumbled over Dick's
body, knelt, listened to his heartbeat,
then, satisfied of his death, ghoulishly
; rifled his pockets and took from them
this very envelope that had come back
into her hands so curiously through
the prank of a mischievous child.
,' Into the vivid tableau of that mem
ory the kneeling figure of Doctor
Royce fitted to perfection. Gloria
had a sudden intutition that she tin
derstood the truth at last. Doctot
Royce had told her that her vision
was delirium because it was himself
that she had seen.
. All his' devotion now took on a
new and hideous look. . He had not
cared for her. He had meant only to
blind her and divert her from her
revenge. He had nearly sncceeeded.
She had frittered away her time.
She had believed the Indian chief
who had said that it was Royce and
not Freneau who battled for her and
aved her. She had allowed herself
o think, disloyally1 of her dead lover.
She would exact double vengeance
for that.
. She advanced at once on the kneel
ing Koyce and cried out upon him:
"It was you then! You of all the
people in the world I I see you now
as plainly as I did that night, only I
was too foolish to suspect you."
"What do you mean -Gloria?"
Royce asked hoarsely.
- "I mean that you had a share in
the murder of my poor lover.. You
hired that beast Trask and you went
there to make sure he did his work
well."
"Gloria!, Gloria 1" Royce sighed, so
deep and honest a sorrow on his
face that Gloria was staggered. But
only for a moment. Her wrath car
ried her on: , .,!.
"You made a fool of me for a long
time, but you were too clever too
lo,ig, and now I know I know a
little at least, and I'm going to know
more. Why did you kill my Dick?"
"I didn't want to kill him Gloria.
I knew how. you loved him and I
would have given my life to keep
vou from oain. then as now. You've
got to believe me." , . A
"Believe you? When you told me!
that all I saw was delirium? When
you drugged me that night in the
hope that I would forget? When you
dragged his body away and threw
if tin the river?. Ugh, the horrible
brutality of it!" . .
'That's too false tven for you to
believe, Gloria,". Royce protested. "I
did not drag his body away, and you
know it." i '- -.
"I know nothing of the sort. I
. fainted . as you stole this envelope
from 'his body. . Do you deny that
, you did it?" , :
; Royce stood trembling with con
fusion. Gloria took his. silence for
a confession. She quivered before the
confirmation of, her .charge. From
her weak hand the envelope slipped.
As she bent to recover it one-of the
enclosed . letters fell- out and the
Hteese blew it crisply away, opening
it as it fluttred. She caught it at
the edge of the pool. She could not
help reading it at a glance. .
" The handwriting she recognized
without the aid of the signature. Her
brain almost refused to accept what
her eyes beheld:
: "Beloved Dick: Don't hate me for
compelling you to make this trip,
- but 1 am frantic with jealousy of
Gloria, and if you fail me I will do
something desperate. Your adoring
and once adored
"LOIS."
.. Gloria dropped 'on a marble bench,
while the ground seemed to be shaken
beneath her. So Freneau had planned
to make a journey with Lois! It
was plainly at Lois' demand, yet he
had consented and arranged to go.
The story Frank Mulry told her had
been a lie, too. Freneau had had an
'.flair with Lois, with the; wife ot
. Gloria's own brother! , '
I This treachery in her own house
hold was like a nausea; , it sickened
her. She returned to Royce, no longer
demanding, 'but appealing: "In
heaven's name tell me the truth."
': Royce felt that the time was over
lor deception. The truth could not
hurt Gloria worse than appearances.
' "You shall have the truth, Gloria,
or as much of it as I know. I tried
to keep it from you because you were
ill and you were young and I was
afraid that the 'ugly reality would kill
youi While yo-were still very ill
with pneumonia, I stumbled on the
fact that Freneau was carrying on an
affair - withwith, the woman, the
wretched woman who wrote that let-
" ter." I happened to overhear him tell
her to meet him at midnight at the
pavilion near the . monument I had
known that be was a scoundrel, and
had always been a roue. . But you had
loved him, so I begged hun to play

fair with you. And he had promised.
When 1 heard him make that ren
dezvous with with that woman,, I
went right to him and told him that
I knew of his vile scheme. I de
manded that he break off the affair.
Besides, the woman's husband was
one of my dearest friends and I
wanted to protect his home as well
as your heart.
Freneau laughed at. my earnest
ness and ridiculed me, resented my
interference, called me a meddler and
a busy body. It tojd him I would pre
vent his treachery at all costs. I
took my revolver with .me. I didn't
mean to kill him. The revolver was
not even loaded. But I intended to
frighten him with it.
"I never dreamed, of course, that
the bionculars I gave you to amuse
yourself with would give you a sight
of the whole tragedy. I waited and
waited for Freneau to appear. At
last I walked down the drive expect
ing to meet him. I found his body
lying in the snow. I knelt down and
listened to his heart. It was still. He
was dead beyond all rescue.
"I saw that envelope in his pocket
I didn't knowwhat was in it, but was
afraid of what it might contain. I
imagined the police discovering him
and the newspapers publishing what
was found on his person. Before 1
realized what I was doing I took the
envelope. I saw somebody coming
along the drive. I didn't know who
it was. I don't know now, but I
ran - away. '' ; '
' "When I got back to my office I
got word that your nurse had called
me. I ran to youjs house.. You told
me you had seen the murder done.
You had seen me without recogniz
ing me.; I told you it was a delirium
like the other you had had. I looked
through the bionculars when I went
out on the drive.- -1 almost believed
that I had imagined the whole thing
myself.
"I Went to the pavilion. ' There I
saw a woman, the woman, waiting for
Freneau. I told her that he had been
killed. She was frantic with grief. I
sent her, home and went back to you.
You were in a state of hysteria. I
ftave you a drug to keep you from
osing your mind. ' ,
"I had no idea then, and have none
now, as to the murderer's name or the
name of the man who took the body
away.- I had never seen this man
Trask till you pointed him out to me.
I can't imagine what grudge he had
against Freneau or whether he dis
posed of the body or not. - He is your
captri-s now, and I intend to do all I
can to get the truth from him.
"I ought never to have tried to de
cieve you, even for your own good.
The truth is a dangerous thing to
tamper with. I see it now, but my
only guilt was a longing to protect
you. It was my love that led me to
hoodwink you, and now my love must
bear the punishment."
Gloria's mind was not too busy with
its own thoughts to heed the profound
devotion of his tone. Her heart soft
ened toward him a little, and once
more Freneau was on trial before her
soul. But all she said was:
"The night courtl Judge Freeman
let Trask go. He tried to persuade
me not to pursue him again. What
reason did he haver He must have
known Trask. He's got to tell the
truth." .....
Royce disclaimed all knowledge of
Judge Freeman's knowledge, or his
motives. He saw Judge Freeman com
ing into the driveway in his car. He
saw the judge's daughter,- Lois, greet
him. ': ' i ' - '.''
Gloria saw him, too, and she did not
wait. She glared at Lois with savage
distrust ana curtly demanded a word
from the judge. She beckoned to him
and walked away, and the old jurist
followed her like a guilty lad going to
hi punishment. ., ,
'Gloria moved away to a secluded
bench in a bowered nook, an exquisite
Grecian indosure more suited to a
courtship than to an inquisition into a
crime. Gloria motioned the judge to
sit down. She made sure that no
body was within sight or hearing, then
she threw oS ill pretence of respect
for age and, seizing the old man by
the lapels of his coat, , commanded
him: ; ,- .;
"Now you shall speak. You are gd
ing to tell me why you let the. mur
derer of Dick Freneau go free. You
-are going to tell me what you know
about him.' I can only think of one
reason. You know that your daughter
waa going to run away with him and
you had him put out of the way. It
was you and nobody else that hired
Trask, and that is why you sent him
away when he happened to be brought
into your court." -
Judge Freeman smiled drearily at
the accusation. He shook his head.
"No, Gloria, my' child, you can'tj
lasicn it uiurucr un nici anu once more
I advise you to keep "your pretty fin
gers out of the fire. If you don't you'll
destroy somebody who is very dear to
you."
"Don't tell me any more lies, judge,
or you'll burn your own fingers. You
don t know how much I have- found
out. You'd better tell me what you
know or you'll destroy your ,own
daughter, for David will divorce her
when he learns how false she has
been to him." -v
"David knows I" David knew !" the
judge retorted, driven to bay by Glo
ria's manner. "
Cloria. laughed at this. "Do you
suppose that my brother would toler
ate her presence here at his side if
he knew? Look I there they are to
gether.'' -
She pointed to a distant hilltop
where David stood with his arm about
bis wife. The judge rose and glanced
at the couple, then sank back with a
groan.
"He has forgiven her, perhaps, be
cause he feels that he has committed
as great a crime as hers."
Gloria was infuriated at thit attack
Oil her brother, , ;
- "It't Outrageous of you to try to be
smirch the best man that lives. He
has been blind to your daughter's
treachery, but that is his only fault."
"He has not been blind. He knewl"
the judge insisted. "Listen, Gloria.
On the night of the murder I met
your brother at a club. He was
greatly excited. I said, 'What are
you doing here? You told me and
you told Lois that you were going
south for a week.' David was like a
madman. He said, 'I only pretended
to go.' He took a letter from his
pocket and beat it with his hands.
'I've had an anonymous letter sent
to me,' he said, 'and it's put me on
my guard. If what it says is true,
I've got to kill a man.' I tried to
calm him, but a club bore came up,
and while he held me David got away.
"I. was frightened. I hurried from
the club, I went to his house. He
was not there. The butler said that
Lois had left the house alone and
walked toward the drive. She had
told me she was going out of town.
I had seen her baggage leave the-l
house. I walked over to the drive.
I found Freneau's car with a smashed
wheel. The chauffeur said that Fren
eau had left it and walked north some
time before. I hurried on.
"In front of the monument I stum
bled over Freneau's body. I knelt
down. 1 He was dead. I nearly lost
my mind with horror. Evidently
David had followed him up, had met
him, and killed him, leaving the body
for the first policeman to -find.
"It was late and cold and the drive
was deserted. As a judge, I had seen
so many families ruined by some mad
act, I could, only think of one thing;,
the' legal rule that the corpus dilecti,
the body of' the dead man, must be
produced or its existence proved. The
insane inspiration came to me that if
I could get rid of the body I could
save poor . David . from going to the
chair, I could save my poor daughter
from being disgraced before the whole
world. I loved David and love Lois,
of course.- They were my children.
Neither of them realized the hideous
consequences. - Lois was my only
daughter. She was born with a friv
olous soul. She couldn't help it. Her
mother died as your mother did, be
fore she could guide or control the
young heart. David is a splendid
man; he loved Lois to distraction. He
felt that his honor could only be
cleansed of its stain by the blood of
Fieneau. He was the guilty dog. He
led my daughter astray. He played
with your trust. He was a black
hearted "
"Stop!" Gloria cried.- "It's cowardly
to lay all the blame on the one who
cannot defend himself either with lies
or truth". t . - -
The judge, sighed and went on:
"Welti let the guilt lie where the Lot
will place it. All I know was that I
had heard your brother threaten to
kill a man and fhat I found the man
dead a little later. All my honor and
responsibility as a judge was forgotten
in the first law of a lather to protect
his children from the world.
"I am old and I will take what
blame is mine of my children's. I
lifted the body of Freneau and
dragged it back of the monument. A
policeman went by yawning and no
ticed nothing. I dragged the body!
down the steep steps and along the
winding pathways, down to the rail
road tracks, and across them to an old
dock.
"Not a human being was in sight. I
I rolled the body oft into the water.
There was a splash and then I turned
and climbed the hill and went home.
I telephoned to Lois. She answered
me and said that 1 had wakened her
from her sleep. I asked if David was
there. She said she had taken him to
the train. The next day I learned that
he had come back, saying that he had
found the journey unnecessary.
"I lived in agony for a week. Then
Freneau's body was found in the lower
bayi where the current had taken it.
The. rartra eairl h had fnmmitrerl
i:i. k.,,.. t ;n,-;i ,,m,ki.. !
It seemed best to let the secret go.
What could it profit anybody to tell
the' truth now? .
. "When they told me that you had
seen the murder done I was aghast.
Evidently you did not see me drag the
Doay away. , vvnen you pointed out
Trask in the night court, I could only
believe that you had been mistaken in
the man, or that David had hired him.
I had not the courage to hold him and
let him speak, so I added one more
shame tp my malfeasance in office.
"And now you know all that I
know. ... Trask is here, David is here,
If you want your brother accused in
the open court of murder, if you want
your family in the headlined of all the
papers, then go ahead, turn Trask over
to the police and I will take my pun
ishment with the rest."
He walked away heavily as if the
burdens of life were breaking him
down. Gloria stood in a daze, her
mind picturing the catastrophe that
must overtake the family if she were
to speak. v
The world was very beautiful, es
pecially here in ths paradise. She
saw David ' and Lois. Her heart
quivered at the thought of exposing
him into public shame, she thought of
turn cowering in a cell in the death
house because of her determination to
avenge a lover of mftt doubtful
honor. .-'
She put off the decision until she
could decide what to do. But one
thing she could do without bringing
down public ruin; one thing she must
do, and that was to drive from this
paradise the evil woman Lois, who
poisoned the very air.
She saw a servant approach David
and Lois; then David hurried to the
house. He had been called to the
telephone, perhaps. Lois sat down to
wait for him. An irresistible and very
womanly impulse sent Gloria straight
toward her. Lois looked up with a
smile as Gloria approached. Lois was
happy. She had been wicked and
escaped punishment. She had re
pented and been enabled to keep what
she had lost the right to possess. Her
husband did not know of her guilt;
he was no longer jealous. And Doctor
Royce was about to restore to her
those letters of hers which were an
.,rl4.nrr iltnmrj tn hr till ah
could regain. them and make sure of
their destruction.
Her smile faded as she saw the look
of wrathful contempt in Gloria's eyes.
Then she caught a glimpse of that
f fateful envelope which she had last
seen in Doctor Koyce s hands, now
could Gloria have obtained it? Of
all people in the world,- Gloria was
most to be dreaded with those letters
in her possession. Lois' heart began
to pound, her mind told her to run,
but her knees could not even uphold
her. ' ' '
Gloria wasted no time on prefaces.
She said: "I see you recognize these
letters. Shall I give them to David
now, or have you anything to say
first?" . .''.
"What .shall . I say? What can I
say?" Lois stammered.
"You might begin with the truth.
What was Dick Freneau to you?"
Lois shivered at having to make
confession before such a court, for
Gloria was young and clean-minded
and she could not understand the
desires and passions of a woman like
Lois. And Gloria, , too, had been
wronged. Her lover had been killed
in his sins. Loia realized what a
hateful face vice wears when its pink
domino is ripped from its smile.
But Lois told her story, justifying
herself by laying all -the blame on
Freneau or on Gloria. She told how
Freneau had won her. heart in Flor
ida, but he had been poor and David
had won her from him- with his
wealth. Then she made the old ex
cuse, that David had neglected her
for his ambition and had left her a
prey to Freneau's fascinations. Fre
neau had made her utterly his and led
her into the depths of guilt only to
esat her off when Gloria appeared m
all her panoply of youth and inno
cence and idolatry.'
She told Gloria that Freneau had
protested to her that he did not love
Gloria, but only wished to marry her
to save himself from bankruptcy and
poverty. -
This was the unwise confession, for
Gloria was revolted by the profana
tion of her love.i She di not believe
the charge. She cried out hoarsely
that it. was . a black falsehood. Lois
persisted that it; was. true. But she
had lost the tone of contrition and
Gloria had lost all power of mercy.
When Lois finished her story and
told of Freneau's plan to elope with
her, Gloria'k heart was hard as
marble. Lois made her final plea:
"I have sinned, but I have atoned,
and David trusts me. Give me back
the letters and let our lives go on
in peace." ' , -
Glorialooked at he;1 in wonder, and
sneered .
"You don't ask much of life, do
you? You have the love of two men.
bring one to death and one perhaps
to crime, and then you say: Don't
let any harm befall me. I must keep
everything!' . You act a little too
much, Lois.".
Lois stared at her in amazement.
"You don't mean that you are. go
ing to tell David what I have told
you?" ' i
"Yes."
"And wreck our life together?"
"That is for you to decide. He
shall have the truth, and then he can
do what he pleases."
"You will give him the letters?""
Gloria nodded grimly. Lois stood
wavering in despair. - The silence was
pierced by the distant cry of a loco
motive's whistle. Am express train
was coming round a far-off curve.
It would sweep down the tracks that
ran at the foot of the Staford estate
along the river.
Lois hearkened a moment, then the
engine shieked again: She made . a
wild decision.
"Give him the letters, then. It
won't matter to me."
She turned and ran down the long
terrace sloping to the embankment
that hid the train from view. Gloria
had often paused on the edge of it
to watch the train rush terribly past.
She understood Lois' full purpose,
whatever and whosover the guilt,
there had been tragedies enough.
Lois must not die. -
She ran after her calling, calling.
But Lois, was far ahead of her and
the train was rushirg with monstrous
speed to the meeting place.
