Christmas Invitation —• — Uy Katherine Edelman J ACC TRESLAR hunched his bread shoulders deeper into Uie big chair, turning a new page of his book. He was reading a Christmas story, trying hard to become absorbed in the tale. A sharp ring from the telephone brought him to his feet. Who could be calling him on Christmas »ve’ A strange voice responded to his ••hello." "I hate to bother you on Christmas eve, Mr. Treslar. But I'm ringing up to ask if it xyonld be possible for you to come and spend Christmas with me My name Is Bevan Willera I live out at Richmond. 1 have a big home, and—” "But—but I don't even know you. Mr. Willers. There must be some mistake.'* “I want you!" the low voice was emphatic. ' Will you come or not?" Jack repressed a quick exclamation. "I—l had thought of spending Christmas—" he began. "W xildn't it be possible to change ■ your plans? I have a feeling they could be side-tracked easily.” Jack thought of the lonely Christmas he had been anticipating AftJ inti. /Al tOi • t He 1* ended the steps leading to the massive door. er all. there might be something to this unusual invitation. "You are right about my plans." te admitted. "They are rather in the air. But -but going to spend dhrlstmas with an utter stranger took me back for a moment." "That’s why I thought you might come " There was a note of disapi pointment in Bevan Willers' voice. "I probably got the wrong man, however.” Jack thought again of the lonely Christmas before him And before he c uld debate the question, be heard a voice inside of him answering. calling through the wire to Richm- nd. "You got the right man, Mr. Willers. I'm coming." An hour later, bathed and dressed. Jack Treslar was speeding along the frosted highway to Richmond Following the detailed instructions that had been given him. Jack found the long winding drive leading from the roadway. What a secluded, ghostly place, he thought, as he drove under the snow-sprinkled trees. BEVAN WILLERS was waiting. In the dim light from the chandelier, his tall bent figure seemed grotesque "I have kt the servants ! away for the evening." be said, his bony hand motioning toward the end of the shadowed hall. Jack Treslar felt a twinge ot fear ns he followed. H«-rc he was—alone in the house with this strange old man. Anything could happen. There ! wasn't another residence within blocks. Then, his adventurous spir- ’ it reasserted itself, and he looked smilingly across the table at Bevan Witters. "Well, what's it all about?” A dead silence was the only answer. Gray eyes under heavy bristling brows stared at him intently Jade stared back unflinchingly Then a hearty laugh rang through the library. With amazement Jack saw the old man straighten up in his chair. Years seemed to fa.l off his shoulders. The twisted, grotesque appearance vanished as if by magic He spoke quietly. •I’m not crazy.” be began; 'Tm just a lonely old fellow, ticketed as a sort of reel ise. The true facta are that I've been trying for years to write. Yesterday I got word that a story of mine had been .iccepted.” "But I still don't understand your J strange invitation, and—" Jack Interrupted "I'm corring to that." Bevan Wil- ' lers continued The hero of my I book is a dar.ng. adventurous fellow A man willing to answer a ' strange rail that came in the night I got intrigued With the fellow, and , began thinking. Wondering if there | wax any young fellow who w old act as he had done. So I rang the ’ first hotel that came to mind and I describe dmy hero Young, unmarried. Interesting sort of chop Pre- ' tended his name had sliH>ed my 1 mind for the moment They con- , netted me with your room. You | know the rest " ' Jack stretched out his long arm > across the desk, and gripped the old | man's bend ' Wow that I'm here, Mr. Willers. do you still believe you ' have got the right man " There wag I wistful entreaty in bis dark eyes > “I don't just think—l'm absolute * ly pcssuve."
