CHAPTER SEVENTEEN IN HIS office, Gamadge told Mrs. Coldfield: -Here are pencils, and here’s paper, and you’ll find the telephone book and other reference books on that revolving stand there.” He pulled up a chair beside her. “I’ve been making inquiries about the sale of the letters, and I’m afraid we can’t hope for the name of that agent—not unless we show cause to enlist the services of Scotland Yard, Or the Home Secretary? Who la it in England that can make a solicitor givei a client away ?" "Wais it done thrcjgh a soy licitbr ?” , “Ye«: he got a guarantee of re- | fund if the letters turned out to be Stolen goods, but he got even more. He got an impression of bonk tides; that means be knows t’the i agent of ' old, And it means something more to me: if the agent was as responsible as all that; ne wouldn’t take a chance . either. He’s sure, absolutely sure 'there’ll be no trouble about the theft of those letters, even if it’s discovered by the Coldfields." Gamadge looked at her, qiiietly smoking. “He was sure at the time, and he’s sure now." \F “because a Coldfield took them, and i he knows there would never i be any scandal allowed in that fgmily ?” I “Yes; the whole thing would be suppressed: they’d keep it to themselves, and take their medicine. They might turn out the black sheep, but nobody would ever know why, The agent, knows them pretty well, Mrs. Coldfield." She nodded, pencil In hand, her eyes on his. I I “And of course it’s very improbably that the agent knows - anything about the real consequences of the theft," continued Gamadge. “He probably doesn’t even guess. He knows the thief well, but not well enough to be told that. So all he’s done has been to receive stolen goods, perhaps partly owned by the thief anyway, and which so far as he and tpel thief knew were treasure trove. The Coldfields didn’t know they had them, and weren’t being cheated of money because they’d never have cashed in on them." “Would’the agent think of all that as an excuse f" ' “He would certainly try. He seems to be a man of reputation, if he is a man, and he seems to I have acted out of friendship.

Now what 1 want, of course, is a list of people, friends of the Coidfields, who caii or may fill our requirements. It’s not so difficult as it looks —no need for discouragement* Gamadge-smiled at her. “Well, at least we know that he was over in England to make the sale." ■ L; “Over; in England, somewhere about March of last year—not later than March, so I’m told.

And you might eliminate the Watertons." She couldn’t Leip laughing., By the time Mrs. Coldfield had finished her list, and Gamadge had studied it. and they had all had tea, the rain was coming down in buckets. There was wind, too — half a gale. “Lovely afternoon for a drive up the river," said' Clara“Just alow driving, that’s all."

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN GAMADGE had his last' look at the list when he slowed up at the Coldfield gates. He sat looking out at the house and grounds before ho turned in; in this rainy light the place was bleak enough, but jt could never be very gay. There were a tot of the big old trees, which matched the color of the rough stone building and stables; and the ugly stone seemed to soak up the rain. But that house wouldn’t be damp inside; it had; been built as tight as a drum. Surveying th? big sunken door, Gamadge wondered how h'e and Harold could ever have got anybody out of the place. He tried to draw upon his historical sense, but he simply couldn’t imagine those square blue envelopes coming to that door; or did Mrs. Deane Coldfield have to drive down to the post office herself, tn the shining carriage or-—more probably —in her neat dog-hart, to get her foreign mail? But she could always explain that her English correspondent was a lady, that dear kind Lady Totten, who hadn’t much of Interest to say. Gamadge roused himself from this reverie apd rolled the car down over fine wet gravel to the doorstep. A plump maid let him in, took his card, and ushered him into the drawing-room on the left of the hail. .She lighted lamps, and went away. , There were closed folding-doors at the ‘end of the room, shutting it off from the library of Harold’s description. Gamadge stood and looked around him. A fine well? proportioned parlor, but it would have looked better with the original fringed and looped curtains at the high windows, the original fringed and buttoned furniture and the crystal chandelier. It had been done over apparently at the turn of the Century. \ This generation of Coldfields took its time: the family was evidently studying his card. After something of a wait the foldingdoors were pushed oppn, and a small, slender, greying man stood between them. He said, “Mr. Gamadge: do come in." Gamadge advanced into a handsome library: there were plenty of books in glassed cases, there was a fire burning tn a'wide hearth, there were comfortable chairs and sofas and a carved dak table. A man and two women sat in the chairs that faced him as he came in: the man rose—a tall, big, ruddy man: Ira Coldfield.

Feb. 1-,—(UP)—’ Quebec Premier Maurice Duplessis blamed saboteurs Jtoday for the collapse of a 2,300 foot highway bridge spanning the St. Maurice river, but his political foes revived charges bf graft and < orruption in its construction. The 35.4Q0. 61)0 bridge. which joins three riv.ers and Cap De La Madeleine on the Montreal-Quebci, highway, graved in early yesterday. Four men died in the icy St Maujrice vyaters and three other men reached safety by climbim: Over ice floes.

I Ames was pale, with pale blue eyes. He held out his hand. “Mr. Gamadge,” he said in his high, carefully accented voice, “1 find I know you by reputation. Your books. We are all so much interested. We had no idea.* He looked greatly amused. Gamadge shook hands and said he was gratified. “Since 1 do know you, after a fashion," continued Ames, “I’d better introduce you and the family. I myself am Ames Coldfield. That is my sister-in-law Georgette, and the young woman is my niece Susan. And there, scowling at you, though he .knows better than to do it, is my brother Ira." \ Gamadge nodded amiably to the others. I “Had we but known!” said Ames with his giggle. “And had you but known that your name was a passport into this house at any time." “That wasn’t exactly the idea.” Gamadge, now completing the wide circle in front of the fire, with the others opposite him and Arnes on his left, had the big oak table on his right. He leaned against a corner of itt, and spoke amiably. The idea was to get Mrs. Glendon Coldfield but, passport or no passport." “And you succeeded," chuckled Ames, “in the most romantic way. It was comical, too, from one point of view. Mine, ip fact; I saw > the strategy from the dining-room, and the departure when I got out on the doorstep. Adventure in the home. I haven’t been so stimulated since my Anthony Hope days: I can read him yet." ‘ v Gamadge wasn't paying much attention to this highly civilized approach. He let his eyes wander over the others—lra Coldfield, with his clipped blond moustache and his angry blue eyes; Mrs. Ira, handsome in her red dress and her gold jewelry. She had hazel eyes, bright bronze hair, plenty of makeup, a good figure verging on heaviness, a hard stare. The hazel eyes were a little prominent, and they looked frightened. Susan Coldfield had the hazel eyes, and the bronze hair—but it was the bronze that her mother’s had been tong ago. Her coloring was natural and beautiful, her features fine, her bones smaller than Georgette Coldfield’s. She was in a dark-green dress, very smart and plain. Her expression was one of mortification. \ Ira put a stop’ to his brother’s speech. He said furiously, “There’s no occasion for all this." v ' ■J. •

“None," agreed Gamadge. “You can’t want me in the house longer than necessary. 1 shall deliver your sister-in-law’s message, collect her luggage, and go.” j Ira said loudly, “I don’t want to hear her message—1 know well enough what it will be. I tell you and 1 tell her that 1 don’t give an inch, and neither does my wife, or my brother. She was in a crazy, dangerous state of mind, and we shouldn’t have been safe in the house with her if she hadn’t been restrained—in the most humane, kindest way. Ask her doctor." “I should like to,” said Gamadge. “I was looking forward to it. But I don’t see him.“ There was a short pause. Then Ira burst out, “He was to be here.” “But he drove out of town,” said Susan dryly. “Very important call, you know." , l L . i i Her mother turned on her sharply, “Susan, this affects you. That’s why you're here now. Please remember it." < Gamadge said equably, “Let me deliver the message; it will make a difference in your point of view. Mrs. Glendoh Coldfield withdraws her statement” The pause was longer this time; even Susan looked stupefied. At lajst Ames spoke—tentatively. “You mean she how says she was mistaken?" “Quite mistaken," replied Gamadge. “Nobody went mad and poisoned her husband, nobody went mad and tried to poison her. She that. Clearly." Ames said after a moment, “But this is a miracle. I assure you, Mr. Gamadge—but you can’t know, of course, what she’s put us through. Not in detail." Ira asked in a flat voice, “What made her change her mind?” “Well, I may say I argued her« out of the idea," said Gamadge. I Another pause, but nobody asked the obvious question. The I answer to the question was so clear to all but one of them that there was no reason to ask it. One of them would never ask it. “In that case,” said Ames, astonlshment givmg way to what' certainly resembled relief, “let’s all sit down. You must hear our side of ’ it, Mr. Gamadge—you really must. You’ve earned our eternal gratitude, we now regard you as i our dearest friend. A miracle!" ; He looked at the others. “How shall we reward him?” “We might ask him,” said Susan, dryly, “what Sylvia would like.* 1 (To Be Continued} >
