What Happened In the Darkness by
ids swampland.
With the darkneit went momts
tarily my It it vestige of aeU-cfm-rot.
Leaving Gric Draper with
Mother Graham, I with - Katie
wringing her handi and muttering
prayers at my side patrolled the
edge of the awampy woodland, after
1 had invoked all the aid fit the
neighborhood in the search (or
Junior.
I knew that I rmit not go into
the woodland itself, for I wished to
keep near enough to the house in
finity to receive any newt of the
child brought to me, but I (tt that
I must remain as near at jmsille
to the place where all the seau-hcrs
agreed that my baby boy mut have
itra"ed.
At regular Interval I called hit
rs.Tr, then . I'e'enco for a poasiblc

all the anguished tciror I Jvd sup
presied tince my child dippraie1
voiced itself in a tearing.

then I heard her calling fra mcally
for "Jeeml Jeeml" as she ran away
from me. . . . ,
I think I mutt have swooned, for
the next thing I remember was tm.
glare of a lantern in my , y"
lim's thoulder supporting nic. Katie
was kneeling by me. chafing one o
my hands, upon which I could feel
her hot tears falling, and Gra-e
. Draper was rubbing my other hand.
The lantern was held by a young
man I never had seen before, and its
rays danced (or an instant fantas
tically upon Grace Drapc-r s face,
giving it for an instant a .",
mocking, almost gloating look ; th
made me shiver and moan. But
when I had struggled back to unity
and remembrance I realized that it
must have been the glow of the lan
tern that had misled me, for there
was nothing save the most compre
hending tympathy in the gaze, the
bent on me at I struggled to an erect
k-jSnterr I exclaimed wildly. "I
(must keep on calling him. He might
hear me." But the effort to re ex
hausted me. and, faint to the point of
nausea. 1 sank back against Jim.
Grace Draper bent over me
u mv hands firmly-. in. hers, .

MiiitiiiM nnw that the dark
ness has come. Mrs. Ticer is with
her, and she's calling for you and
Dicky. Now, I can stay out here and
call Junior just as well as you. He
knows my voice, you know. And
von must t to . the house and be
taken care of. and . see ' to your
mother-in-law." ... .
For the" moment I was without
will or volition. I permitted her to
m un to i standing position,
felt Katie'i arm around me. Jim sup
m nn the other side, inen

"No, no," I protested feebly, then

A Compelling Personality.
"Just tome one ..to help,' he re
turned deferentially, boyishlyTI saw
that he was in his early twenties, yet
with an air of manliness and decision
far fcevond his years, the air which
in manv of our yountt men wear to
day, the result of their war. expe
rience. "We'll talk about it -later.
Just now I'll hold the lantern so you
; wnn't atumble." ; - '
" "Is your's lighted?"" He turned to
Grace Draoer.
Vi Sh had been busy with
second lantern, and now" swung it,
"You aren't afraid out here?" per
funetorily. - '
"Not a bit," she said promptly,
"And, Madge, III call juit as you
have been doing,"
Til be back soon," I said wearily,
and meant it, but when I reached
the houe I found my hands full with
Mother Graham and I regained in
toothing her tome of the compoture
I had lo.t. Karlicr, 1 had tent for
Dr. 1'cttit, but he wai out of town,
could not be reached, and I had
tried no one eUe.
The young man touched my thouU
der as 1 crourd the room to take
a cup of hot tra from Katie't hands
in the hope of inducing Mother
Graham to drink a little of it.
Tut thit in it." he whispered,
handing me little pellet. "She
miiit sleep for awhile, or there t no
telling what may happen. - I'm
enough of a physician for that."
There wat something in hit voire
that teemed to compel my obedi
ence, and 1 dissolved the pellet in
the tea, wat tuccetsful in getting my
moihcr-in-law to drink it, and wat
rewarded a little later by her fall
ing into a deep slumber, drug-induced,
of course, but yet blessed
oblivion.
Then the young man with the lan
tern, as I mentally designated him,
gave a quiet command to Katie to
stay with her, another to Jim and
Mrs. Titer to prepare tome tea and
hot milk for me, and then with a
slight but firm pressure upon my
arm led me to the living room, put
me into an arm chair, and seated
himself opposite me.
I felt, somehow, as thoujh he al
ways had been in that room, a if his
giving orders for me was the per
fectly natural thing. Hit earnest
young face, with warm Hue-gray
eyet, hit little, wellknit figure, held
personality which 1 leit wat used
to meeting emergencies, and to
handling people. For the first tee
ond since my baby disappeared I
found myself unconsciously depend
ing on. someone beside myself.
"Please, Wira Thia Man."
"We won't waste time, Mrs. Gra
ham," he said briskly. "My name is
Tom Chester, and I happen to be

the commander of the local post of
the American Legion. I heard ol
four trouble only an hour ago, and
have tent word to round up all
the boyt, and we'll begin at once
s systematic search for your child,
with our army experience to back
us. And now I want to know just
how 1 best can serve you, person
ally, 'lease consider me jut s
tort of errand boy."
Hit winning smile, his earnest eyes
were, things to remember. I felt
heartened in the tiniest degree,
braced for the terrible hours ci wait
ing 1 saw before me.
"Il there any one you ant me
to send far?" he asked.
I brought my bewildered brain
to focus on his iuenon. F'. whoia
could 1 sendr Lillian, always my
rock of refuge, wat to ill that no
word of my tragedy must be .Hawed
to reach her. Mrs. Ticr h?d met
h'obert S'.vrin upon his rrtitM from
the hospital with the whimpered
news, and at my request, relayed to
him, he had kept Marion in ner
toom, away from any chance of the
tidings reaching her. My father and
Allen Drake were traveling, and I
did not know their address, a'though
a wire o headquarters would even
tually reach them.

lie changed hit address, came s pen

that he meant me always to bt able

With sudden determination I rose
