SYNOPSIS Leaving Hawaii shortly after her father's death, young and beautiful Fanchon Meredith goes to San Francisco, where she meets and loves a handsome man named Tony. Fanchon is shocked to learn that Tony is a racketeer, implicated in a recent murder. She, too, is now wanted. Fanchon escapes in an airplane under the name of “Smith.” Evelyn Howard, whom she had met on the boat coming from Hawaii, is aboard. Evelyn is enroute to New York to live with her aunt, the wealthy Mrs. Carstairs, whom she has never met. After Fanchon confides in Evelyn, the latter treats her coolly. The plane crashes and Fanchon is the only survivor. She decides to escape Tony and the past and start life anew by masquerading as Evelyn. CHAPTER VII Fanchon was carried, sitting on the clasped hands of two of the men. They reached the cars and the ambulance. Fanchon was put into a car and taken to the home of one of the farmers. There she was questioned again. She gave steadily, tersely, the names of the pilot and of Mr. Eames. The name of the air company, which would be informed at once, which would inform the relatives of the dead. She said again Miss Smith . . . and added that as far as she knew, the other girl had no people, to claim her. To claim the body. “She tqld you nothing of herself?" asked Doctor Warren. “Just that she had no relatives and was going to New York to look for work. She had been working," said Fanchon, steadily, "in San Francisco and had saved for the—the trip. I think her home was in San Francisco. In some lodging house.” “I see. Poor girl—” said the doctor. She was. he added, still breathing. A transfusion had been arranged for at the hospital. But there was very little chance. “Any?” breathed Fanchon. She hated herself . . . for fearing that the other girl might live. She marveled at the depths to which she had sunk, the lies to which she had committed herself. "If she does not live,” said the doctor gravely, “it would be better for her . . .” "You mean?” whispered Fanchon, only half understanding. He touched his head significantly “And your people?” he asked her, "we must wire them immediately." She opened Evelyn's bag. She took from it the card with Mrs. Carstairs' address on it. "My aunt,” she said. “If you will wire to this name and address?” she asked . . . "and say I am safe and am coming on by train. When can I leave, Doctor Warren?” "Do you feel strong enough to go alone?" he asked her. "Won't you wait until your people come for you ?" Fanchon shook her head. “No, I must," she said, "get home ■s quickly as I can.” “I understand. There is a train to New York tomorrow morning. You will stay here quietly with the LawSons until then. They will see to everything,” said the doctor. He left her in the capable hands of the kindly farmer's wife and returned some hours later to make sure she had suffered no great ill from exposure. The airplane company had wired, lie told,her, and the telatives of McKenon. the pilot, of the steward and mechanic as well ks the Eames relations would be on ♦o claim the bodies. “You were right about Miss Smith," he said. “No one has any record of her. Her passage was booked through an agent who docs not know the name bf the person booking it." Tony had left the city then, thought Fanchon. It w ould be some

time before he learned of the accident. It would, of course, be m the papers. But he might be where papers were not to be had. In the morning she left for New ; York. She left with Doctor Warren more than enough money to ' take care of . . . "Miss Smith.” - “Not.” said the doctor, sadly, “that it will be needed. It is impossible that she live through the day," he said. He took Fanebon's address ... in care of Mrs. Carstairs. And on her arrival at the depot to await the train, which would be flagged for her, she was given a wire by the station agent. "Immeasurably happy and grateful for your escape. Will meet you Pennsylvania Station. All my love. Aunt Jennie.” There was no going back. In the drawing room which she had engaged, Fanchon, in a borrowed coal and hat, sat staring out of the windows, listening to the beat of the wheels along the shining tracks . . . imposter, they said to her. imposter, imposter. But she argued that, in a sense, she was doing no real harm. Jennie Carstairs had never known Evelyn Howard. She could, therefore, never have loved her. The girl was literally nothing to her, save someone of her blood to whom she owed a belated duty. If Fanchon took her place. Fanchon would, she vowed, live up to it; she would give back value received, for affection and , peace she would render affection and duty in return. And when time had passed and there was no longer any danger, she would go quietly away . and never bother anyone again. It i was not on the cards that Evelyn , would live. . She thought of Evelyn dying, : with no one of her own about her, I and her heart constricted with an ! agony of shame and terror and self , loathing. But she had spoken; or rather, she had kept silent. It was i too late . . . too late. i Evelyn would die, without rceov- : ering consciousness. Jennie Carstairs would be spared much unhap- , piness and self reproach; and she, : Fanchon, would find, for a little

time, at least, a measure of safety and peace. She opened Evelyn’s big, flat, roomy handbag, stained with rain and with Fanchon’s own blood. There were letters in it. From Mrs. Carstairs. Long letters, written in a vital, nervous sort of hand. There was money. There were the photographs of Evelyn's parents; there were snapshots of, Fanchon thought, the place in which Evelyn must have last lived and called home. There were also snapshots of the school ie Honolulu and the one in San Francisco. » It would not be hard. It would be more or less natural that Evelyn would not speak much or often of her mother and father to the people who had cast them out. As far as Hawaii went, Fanchon was on perfectly safe ground there. She studied the letters, the photographs. Suddenly a thought reached her, stopped her heart for an instant. Evelyn must have written her aunt. It was beyond conception that her hand and Fanchon's should be alike. Fanchon fixed that fact firmly in her mind. She must remember. She remembered something else, with an effort. Remembered that among the small pieces of luggage Evelyn had brought on the plane had been a little portable typewriter. It was quite within reason that her letters to Mrs. Carstairs had been written on the machine. If so, so much the better. She thought of the meeting that lay ahead of her. She longed for it, and yet shrank from it. But no great display of affection on her part nor on the part of Mrs. Carstairs would be necessary or even reasonable. For they had never known one another. Y'et Jennie Carstairs’ wire had been affectionate in the extreme. Due, thought Fanchon, logically, to the situation, to the tremendous peril in which she knew her niece had been placed. It was natural enough. Natural, too, that she would not ask Evelyn to talk much of the accident. C»nyri(ht till Ry Fsilk Rtldwla Distributed h.V King Features SjnMicjitc, Ire.
