SYNOPSIS Michael Lanyard — formerly known as the “Lone Wolf,” an underworld celebrity, but now a respected antique dealer—sails for America on the S.S. “Navarre.” Aboard ship, he meets Detective Crane of New York, who hunted the “Lone Wolf” years ago. They talk of Lanyard’s reformation preceding his marriage, and the tragic death of his wife and child, en while he was at war. Later, Lanyard sees a young man dart into the passageway leading to his (Michael’s) cabin. He is startled and perplexed by the youth's resemblance of himself. Lanyard’s dinner companions are the wealthy Mrs. Fay Crozier, one of his patrons, and her lovely daughter Fenno. CHAPTER 111 Through his connection with Delibes et C>e, he had known Fay for years as a customer v.ho had from time to time sought his advice in respect of additions to her celebrated collection of jewels. A full-blown creature, lively and kind, the strangest combination of grande dame and gamine, with the presence of the one and the elan of the other, he had from the first liked her without knowing more about her than that she was mistress, by marriage, of millions; holding what he heard of her caprices immensely entertaining, and admiring the wotfian for her light-hearted refusal to be smothered by her indisputable social station while at the same time keeping her skirts clear .of the slightest smirch of scandal. Accepted everywhere, but stubbornly declining to be anything but herself, she had come to be more than a mere personage—Fay Crozier was a transatlantic tradition. Fenno was in her own way no less individual and in no way like Fay, a nymph as delicate in every aspect as Fay was extravagant, yet every whit as vital, of a pensive turn but quick with her peculiar wit, restrained of gesture and at the same time spirited, incomparably pretty and as fine-strung as a daughter of the Faubourg St Germain—she was captivating. “Homeward bound as always, madame,” Lanyard was meantime saying, “heavy with loot from Continental treasure-houses’” “Oh. nothing worth talking about this trip. I had set my heart on the Gresham jades, but Alice Islip - -drat the woman!—beat me to them; so I had to be satisfied with a few odd trifles.” Fay Crozier rattled through a sketchy catalogue; an inside knowledge of market values enabled Lanyard to reckon that she hadn't laid out more than three hundred thousand dollars to poultice her disappointment. “Bagatelles,” he gravely nodded. “You must be thinking your expenses as good as wasted. Unless, of course, you have omitted something.” The white head seemed to give the suggestion serious thought but in the end was again vigorously shaken. "One heard it whispered you were dickering with Rumbold’s for the Habsburg emeralds.” “Not dickering, really. 1 barely nibbled. Rumbold’s wanted too much.” Her eyes wide and limpid, the lady mentioned a sum in a tone which conveyed that she had never heard of so much money. “No, indeed; I didn’t buy myself a single thing to wear—except, of course, some clothes.” Amazing vagary! This parcel of flesh still fair at fifty evidently would think her person as good as bare if clad in clothing only. “One is disappointed; one hpd hoped to get, through you, another glimpse of those matchless stones.” “I couldn't afford them. And any-

way, the duty would have been wicked. You know SL Stephen’s emeralds, then?” “But well, I assure you. It so happened that they were in my possession for several days, back in the last week of 1920.” “Not kidding, are you?” Fay inquired. “But I always understood that you—” “Had forsaken my iniquitous courses prior to that time?” Lanyard considerately finished for her. "Madame has reason—the Lone Wolf’s last exploits as such antedated the war by years. No, the emeralds came into my hands quite by chance. They were being conveyed from Budapest, at the time, to the deposed emperor in Switzerland, where, if you remember, he spent his first months of exile. As luck would have it, anti-Royalists got wind of their travels and plotted to intercept and seize them. They would have beqn successful.
■ I? . ! "One heard it whispered you were dickering with Rumbold's for the Habsburg emeralds.” Lanyard said.
too, if the messenger had not taken fright and entrusted the stones to me as one unlikely to be suspected of having anything to do with the affair. In the upshot I had the honor of delivering them to Carl myself at Prangins in almost the first hour of 1921.” "How interesting!” The famous Crozier eyes ran with excitement like blue fire. “Then you could identify the emeralds?” "But surely. They are unique: seven, matched to a line in size and to the last shade of color and cut as we no longer know how to cut such stones—with, I mean, more than merely care and cunning, with such imagination as is never spent except on a labor of love. But I forget—you have seen them yourself.” “I wish 1 hadn't." Fay Crozier sighed, a forged sigh which veiled those treacherous eyes. “I’m bewitched by them, and that’s a fact. You must tell me more about them sometime—the full story of your adventure.” “At madame's service." To this commonplace I..a> ard added in a tone that lent the words a more personal touch: “In all ways.”

Demurely lowered lashes flew up to unveil a query which Lanyard met with a smile that might have meant anything; whereupon Fay Crozier closed at discretion the lips she impetuously had parted and feigned a sudden interest in ths overtures of the male on her right, leaving Lanyard to savor the satisfaction of a man who feels he hac surprised a guilty secret. . . . Passengers who had answered the dinner call more punctually were beginning already to trickle out between the tables. Lanyard marked Crane as that one drifted by without a glance his way, and told himself the American had a perfect professional presence. Though, true to his promise, he hadn’t dressed, whereas almost everyone else had, he contrived to be the least conspicuous of figures, so self-effacing as to be almost invisible in any gathering unless one mad« a point of look-
ing at him. A plain man. minding his own business. Lanyard glanced obliquely at the question of that business. It was none of his, to be sure, but he took the liberty of being mildly skeptical. He didn’t give 3 great deal of credit to the casual account Crane had rendered of his present fortunes. Men of his gifts and native aversion to questionable practices were apt to have a thin time of it, with private agency as well as police employment barred to them. To be of much use to clients who required protection from crooks, a detective needed to keep a finger constantly on the pulse of crook-life, and he couldn’t do that very well if he refused to consort either with crooks or with the powers that preyed on them. The ordinary last resort of a man in Crane’s plight was the national secret service; but the only thing one could be sure of was that, whereas Crane might be telling the truth when he claimed to be a lone wolf in his own line, if he were in the Government service he would lie with his last breath to cover the truth.
