'The Silver Rood Mystery’ by Lewis Allen Browne !

CHAPTER XVI Sergeant Harper deciJed to drive to Kingsbury and make an investigation—find out all he could about Howard Griswold, and search his 7 room. “Go to it," I said. “I’m going to have a talk with Mary and, if the Morin woman goes out tonight, I shall search her room,” “Mary won't help you, Harley,” | Foacroft said, seriously. “I mean, she can’t. You don’t think she was I in with Griswold on this crime, I | hope.” “I don't want to think that,” was as far as I would comment on it. Sergeant Harper and Foxcroft left—Harper for Kingsbury and Foxcroft for Meadowville. I went and found Mary. "Do you think that Griswold might have done this?” I asked. "Mr. Stevenson! It is horrible of you to even suggest it I won't talk with you ” I caught her arm. "Let’s talk about you, then.” “What is there now to talk about? I have told you all I knew.” “You told me a few things that I were not true.” “Yes—but I told the truth later. I didn’t want you to mix Howard up in this. The notoriety might cause him to lose his position at the college. It was so unfortunate that we had made an appointment to see each other that afternoon.” “I am afraid I to talk about Griswold—” “I won’t listen. You mustn't involve him. It is terrible to even hint that he could do such a thing.” “It will be better for Griswold if you do listen, and help us. He was in this house on that afternoon.” Mary’s eyes rounded with amazement, then darkened with doubt and anger. “He was not. You are saying that to poison my mind against him. He I was on the grounds, yes. He couldn’t • go in the house. He was never in the house. He has been on the veranda. Uncle Gerry forbade him to see n»e again, or to come on the groundi” “He was seen leaving the house, that afternoon, Mary.” “Someone is mistaken, or telling a lie to cover up or shield someone. I would be suspicious of whoever told that lie, Mr. Stevenson.” “The one who saw him certainly was not beyond the servant’s quarters that day. She saw him from the grounds.” “All of the servants leave their quarters to do their work ” “This was a former servant.” “A former servant?” Mary tried to think. “Hutton, who left to get married and put Morin in her place “No. I don’t mind telling you, it was Elizabeth Briggs.” “Briggs! Why should she be here ? I had to discharge her. She would lie, do anything, probably, for revenge.” “She wouldn’t lie—at least to Mr. Montieth. Y’ou discharged her because she told the truth about your meeting Griswold. Isn't that true?” “I expect my personal maids to be faithful to me, and my interests,” Mary replied, her face reddening. “When she was discharged, with extra pay, doubtless, instead of a notice, her clothes were in the servants’ laundry. She came to get them. She saw Griswold leaving by the front door.” “I won’t believe it Where is she now?” “Philadelphia. The Jackson maid telephoned her that night about what had happened and she wrote to me, having been told that I was working on the case. The Jackson girl told her that." “She lied. She did it for spite.” “Suppose you telephone Griswold, and ask him.” “I will. Howard wouldn’t lie to me.” I waited as she put through the eall. Either she did not know that he had fled suddenly, or else she was

a more clever actress than I gave her credit for being. Iler surprise, when she was told that Griswold had left suddenly that morning without a word, was perfect. I was watching her carefully. “You knew that he was gone. You got me to telephone, trying to trick me, some way." "Why should he run away?” “Why do you say he ran away? You seem determined to try and pin it on Howard. He went away, and I am sure that whatever his reasons were for going, are both sufficient and honorable. Look here. Mr. Stevenson—even if Howard did go in the house, he couldn’t have committed the crime. You all know now that it was done with that silver rood knife. Howard Griswold never knew of the existence of it Even if he had. it would tiave appeared to him merely as a silver rood, not a weapon with a concealed blade." I shook my head. “It is utterly impossible that he could have known. Even I didn’t know it, and I have lived here since I was a little girl. Davison, who cleaned it, didn't know that it held a concealed blade. You are unfair and unjust I love Howard. I have loved him almost ever since I knew him in college, where he taught us drawing and composition. Because I love him, rather than Dave or Wally, is it a crime?” “Not at all. I suppose your heart dictates, Mary. But hasn't it oc-, curred to you that Griswold, being an artist, might know something about such objects of art? Might know that there were silver roods that were really knives?” “No. He isn’t an expert in objects of art; what he knows is drawing, composition, perspective, and he possesses a great talent for teaching” "Yet he might have seen one, somewhere. He might have recognized that silver rood on the wall. He might have gone in to try and argue your uncle into giving his consent, got into a violent quarrel or lost his temper, snatched the rood from the wall and used it.” “No—no!” “He might have felt that if he married you be would be doing you a great injustice by making you lose your uncle’s wealth, but if your uncle died before changing his will—” “I won't listen!” Mary began to sob. "After all, people are deceived in ones they love and trust. There is nothing new in that. If you are deceived in Griswold, it would kill your love.” "But he couldn’t do that—” “He could. If he did, you couldn't love him.” “No—but you are talking wild, Mr. Stevenson. I believe you are trying to make a story plot out of this, and it is cruel of you.” "Who would kill your uncle? Griswold had the opportunity and the motive, in away. If not Griswold—who?” “Do you suppose I would keep anything back, even a mere grain of suspicion ? Davison couldn't have doqe it. It must have been that professor; why don’t you get hiir?” “We are making every effort. There doesn’t seem to be a trace of ' him in New York. What 1 fear ia j *hat, under another name, he may j leave the country.” “Thee u e ten thousand more reasons to believe that the professor did it than to suspect poor Howard This man was there, a few days be- i fore he had tried to buy the painting. Now, on the day he was there. Uncle Gerry is killed and the painting stolen.” “Why do you suppose Braunian—wait, here is something you don't know. Brauman didn’t commit suicide, he was murdered, that night, not far from where you met Griswold!” When I explained, Mary was almost speechless.

Dr. C. V Connell.

“Do you think this eccentric professor, who undoubtedly stole the painting, would have stuck around and murdered Brauman?” “He might, if he discovered that Brauman had seen him commit the murder.” “If Brauman saw the crime committed, why didn't he tell us, at once ? Why didn’t he grab this little professor? No, he didn't see the professor do it; he saw someone else do it, and he planned to blackmail him.” Mary rubbed her forehead. “I don’t know, I don't know, Mr. Stevenson. I am afraid I’ll lose my mind if this suspense continues." I left'her. My long talk had revealed nothing new, it hadn’t added any proof to my hopes that Mary wasn’t involved. I went down the path to the stile, to go home, and saw Davison and Mason there talking. The two butlers were discussing the crime, naturally. I gave it no further thought. Mrs. Johnson telephoned me right after this that Nola Morin had gone for the remainder of the day. It was early, but she had her work finished and Mrs. Johnson had her instructions to let her go, as had the guards instructions not to stop her at the gate. After dinner I asked Sally to tell anyone who telephoned for me that I would be up at the Montieth house for a while. Mrs. Johnson took me to the little room occupied by the dashing Nola Morin and I started a careful search, taking every precaution not to disturb anything enough to make her suspect that the premises had been searched. Her suitcase, a rather cheap affair, was locked. I had no difficulty with that. A bent hairpin unfastened it as readily as any key. There were two letters from showgirl friends, I judged, who were on the road. Another letter, postmarked in New York at the main postoffice, added another puzzling angle to the situation. It was merely a note, and read: Dear N—l’ll have everything ready by the time you get this, so don’t waste any time. You tell that party what’s what and where he gets off. I’ll be down in a couple days. W. There was nothing else in Nola Morin’s room that could create the slightest suspicion, but that mysterious note from “W” was an important find, I was convinced. I copied it and replaced it. It would have been a blunder to have taken it, and aroused her suspicions. Morin admitted that she went out on the library porch on the afternoon of the murder. Mr. Montieth, she told us, was sleeping. Her excuse had seemed flimsy to me—her assertion that she had gone to trv and wheedle him into giving her more money—higher wages. Servants in such wealthy families never did that. The housekeeper managed such matters. However, Morin admitted that her experience as a maid was slight and that she had been on the stage. Perhaps she. did not know how out-of-nlace it was for her to plan to go to Mr. Montieth. Those were our deductions up to this time. Rut now I was convinced that the handsome Nola Morin lied to us. She had gone out to see Mr. Montieth for some other purpose. To tell him, as the note advised A bat’s what" and where he “gets off.’’ Now, was Montieth asleep, as she said? Did she start to tell him what was -hat? Did Montieth refuse something or other, and did Nola Morin kill him? It didn’t seem probable. How could a new up-stairs maid know anytlnng about that deadly knife disgu:sed as » silver rood? (To be continued) Opmra h, iltai Brum. rnurlbuWJ », K-nf reuaraa Im
