Haddon shrugged his shoulders. “Ask your husband." he counseled. “He insists that I am your husband.” “Oh! He would, of course. I told him you were, you know.” "What!” Both men spoke at once, but in very different tones. | "Certainly. That is, I told him that | that photo was my husband’s. That was a fib, of course. I pretended to he a widow to protect myself; and I had to piny the part. I bought a ring 1 and some crepe and a photo of my late I husband and I changed my boarding I house.
