j 1I "CONTRABAND"

> " SYNOPSIS When Gregory Sallust first saw the girl, in the Casino at Deauville, it was near midnight on the last day of the young Englishman’s leisurei ly tour through Normandy. Sallust, ' I a former Intelligence officer, is now confidential investigator for a great British commercial corporation. ' The girl, tall and beautiful, came ' into the gaming room accompanied by a strange little man, not a dwarf yet curiously ill-proportioned, whom Gregory recognized as a sinister figure in international affairs. When, at midnight, the girl left the Casino alone, Sallust followed her. She meets a man in aviator’s togs and the two are trailed by Gregory to a room above a cheap case, where the man is attacked by hoodlums. Gregory helps him escape. Gregory then takes the girl, Sabine, to his hotel apartment to save her from police questioning. There he asks her the meaning of the coded telegram he found in a black notecase on the floor of the case room after the fight but she warns him it is dangerous to know too much. While they are talking, her odd little companion, calls Sabine on the telephone telling her the coast is clear for her to return to him. But Gregory convinces her it would be safer for her to remain in his room for the night as the man attacked was a Scotland Yard officer and no doubt the authorities would be searching for her. So Sabine sleeps in Gregory’s bed while he rolls up in a blanket on the bathroom floor. In the morning her “guardian” sends day clothes for Sabine, phones that she need not fear the police and warns Gregory to let her go. But Gregory, already infatuated, persuades her to spend the day with him. CHAPTER V Only a good-natured chambermaid hid a smile of understanding as she passed them hand in hand slipping down the service stairs. They passed through a side door into the restaurant, then under cover of the apple trees out through the courtyard. The car was waiting at the spot to which Gregory had ordered it. He had already settled it in his mind that they should lunch at the famous Guillaume Conquerant Restaurant at Dives, but it was still only ten o’clock, so he drove straight through to Cabourg and then turned inland along the road to Caen. When he discovered that Sabine had never visited the old Norman capital, except to dine at that resort of gourmets, the Champs d’Hiver, he parked the car in the square and they got out. They spent an hour laughing and talking as they walked round the ' market and inspected the Cathedral. 1 Then after an early cocktail, they picked up the car again and drove back to Dives, that little village at the mouth of the river from which William the Conqueror set out so many centuries ago w-ith his Norman knights to invade England. Neither Gregory nor Sabine were strangers to the celebrated hostelry I which is the principal center of interest at Dives today and they were soon seated at one of the small tables in its ancient flower-decked courtyard. The August day was a warm one so they decided on a cold luncheon—jellied consomme, chilled duck, and wild strawberries, Sabine was protesting gaily that she could not possibly manage a third helping of the excellent cold duck, dressed with fma gra» and cherries, when Gregory saw her face go suddenly blank-

“What Is it?” he inquired anxiously. She leaned across the table, laying her hand swiftly on his, her smooth forehead creased into a frown. “That man,” she whispered. “Quick, he ia just going through the gate. Oh, but you must be eareful.” Gregory glanced over his shoulder and was in time to eatch one glimpse of a tall, broad shouldered well dresaed fellow who dragged one leg slightly aa he walked, before he was obscured by the archway. “Who is It?” he asked. “The Limper, that ia the name by which they call him,” she murmured. “Is it by chance, I wonder, that he ia here, or has my friend sent him? Be careful of yourself,

please. It would make me miserable now if any misfortune were to happen to you.” "Is he ao dangerous then?" “Very, I t’ink. At least, many people are afraid of him.” “Well, I’m not,” Gregory laughed, “but thanks for the warning, and thank you far more for your concern for me. But tell me this: why do you mix with sueh people? Have you got to, or is it from choice?” She shrugged. “It is my life.” “I wish you’d tell me more of yourself, and more of your, er—friend.” As he spoke he was speculating again as to whether Sabine could possibly be the old man’s mistress. She shrugged again. “I prefer that you should not question me. In a little time now we must part, and it is better that you should know nothing of me.” “Yet I mean to. Believe me, Sabine, we shall meet again—and soon.” "I do sot say I woull! be averse to that—but no! At this time I am apart from men. It ia too dangerous —dangerous for you. Please, after today forget that we have ever met It would be better so." “Tell me one thing,” he urged. “When you speak of your friend, do you really mean your lover?”

“How absurd you are,” she laughed. “But no, perhaps, not alto- ■ gether absurd, for he is a most fasr cinating and interesting person. He i has no time for women though, I . t’ink, and uses me only as a cog iw • his machine.” ’ “To lure unsuspecting young po- ■ 1 icemen to their death, eh?” He > smiled, his flaming anger having I evaporated as quickly as it had i come. i “No, no, not that. Those thugs, as you call them, would not have killed him. Their orders were only to get ' back the telegram that he had . stolen.” , She spoke hastily in her anxiety I to deny the suggestion that she , might have led the officer to his

death and, in so doing said more than she had intended. Gregory was quick to note the flush that mounted to her cheeks. The telegram was now reposing in his breast pocket and as soon as he had the chance he meant to get a cipher expert to decode it if possible, since he had felt from the beginning that it might hold the key to the mystery in which he was so much interested. As he was paying the bill she stood up, saying that she must leave him for a moment, but would rejoin him at the car. He watched her go, a gracious sylvan figure, then he stood up himself and walked slowly through the creeper covered gateway, round to the garage. As he rounded the corner a tall figure with raised arms leaped forward, casting a cloud of black dust straight into his faee. It was pepper. Too late he shut his eyes and thrust up his hands. Searing red hot pains seemed to stab through his eyeballs. The infernal stuff was in his mouth and nostrils, making him choke and gasp. Then, as he staggered back, blind and helpless, a powerful fist caught him a terrific blow in the stomach and he doubled up, writhing in agony on the ground.
