Finley explains that he came ii to the room after the shot was tired and pouted up the wcapon. _ Dolly Fay. a neighbor girl. gives Nam j a note from Finley. The note advises Naiicv to remain quiet. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY , • ILHXTL/Y Nan meditated on I Vw j this, until Dolly, tired of j I waiting for her to speak, leaned over her and read the missive too. "What does he mean, Nan?" she asked. "What he says. I suppose. It's pood advice and I shall follow it. Ttolly, you wormed yourself into tins thine; —you had no right to read tins note—” "Oh, don’t you be afraid of me. Nancy. I won't tell a single thing you don't want me to.” "Oh, why are you here at all? I shouldn’t hive let you stay —but I was so dazed an i troubled last night I scarcely realized that you were here.** "Now, Nan. I'm here to help you. Honest, T won’t ted a thing you don't want me to —why, what have you been doing? Here's a whole heap of ashes in the fireplace: You been burning things?" "It's ohii!y, isn’t it? Dei's start a little fire.” Hastily and rather nervously. Nan laid on some wood from the basket and Dolly ran for a match. Soon i fire was blazing and into it Nan thrust the note she has just read. She sank into a low chair before the fire and asked Doily to ring for her maid "We'll have tea here, Dolly, and then we'll dress and go down to breakfast.” "Yes, dear ' and Dolly fluttered

Dolly," Nan said, after they had their tea, “I can trust you can’t I?” "To the end!" said Dolly. "Then, dear. I’ll tell you, that I am in deep trouble. Don’t ask me any questions, don't tell anybody anything about me, but help me all j you can—won’t you, Dolly?" .“Indeed, I will.” "Then this is what you can do. dear. Take this little parcel and hide it somewhere among your own things until I ask you for it again. Have you some place—where nobody can get at it?" “Oh. yes, I have a drawer in my desk that I always keep locked." “And can you get it over home without attracting attention?" "Don’t worry. Nan, darling—trust ! all to me. Why, It's a small parcel; 1 can get it in mv coat pocket—it's i big pocket, you know." “Very well, dear. Do that —and never say a word of it to any one, ! not even your mother.” “Oh. I won’t. What else can I do | for you?" "Nothing, now. Be- true and faithful to me. won’t you, Dolly?” Nan looked utterly despairing, and Dolly put her arms round her as she reassured her of her love and loyalty. “All right, dear,” and Nan sud •’only straightened up and looked brave and strong again. "Now. dress and we'll go downstairs.” Nancy Raynor dressed herself with care, choosing a plain black gown, and massing her dark hair In i soft coil. Downstairs. Polly found a peremptory message from her mother to come home at once, and Fhe had fO go. Nancy Raynor presided at the breakfast table, and at first no one w :s there with her, but Ezra Godda rd. "Excuse me. if I speak abruptly,” e si ’ in a low voice, as t! e butler '.ft th room for a moment, "but, Mr- Raynor, if you want ary help <>■ a :-.!•••• that I can give, command , ci a lawyer- -but don't ask .Male and Finley to help you.” "Why?"

Goddard.” Orville Kei • said, as he came irro the room. "We'll want help. I'm thinking. Nancy, dear, be careful what you say." With that. Kent lapsed Into silence end devoted himself to hi* breakf'.st paving little attention as the or! r* of the household drifted in and rook their places a', th® table. Malcolm Finley, beyond formal -rreetirgs said almost nothing, and Miss Turner was equally taciturn. <>r’v M: s M ittie Raynor was lo quaclous. "Do you know what I think?” she asked. "I think old Grim Gannon bad something to do with Douglas’ and. nth You know Gannon is a qu-- r lick." Rut nobody commerced en this sUiTonerf or responded In any way to Miss Mattie's otprlon. "Con e f..r a walk in the gardens." Finl*-v whispered to Nan as they left th® diningroom. “T daren't." she returned, lifting piteous eyes to his. “Come with me, Nancy," Kent said, peremptorily And as she obeyed, he admonished her, "Are you crazy. Nan? For heaven's sake keep away from Finley at least un til after the funeral."* "Yes. Orry." she said docilely "Stay by me or Miss Mattie all th® time. You can't be too careful, Nan.” "Os course I’ll do all that —I know my duty—” and Nan once more regained the poise that was natural to her. Doctor Fraser and Detective Dobbins arrived and called the household together in the great living i room. It was clear to be seen that they ' were possessed of new and impor ; tent information. and Dobbins | seemed scarcely able to control his I own excitement as the medical examliner began his inquiries. ; "We have found strange conditions. ’’ Fraser began, addressing himself principally to Nan, but taking in the rest in his roving glance. "Os course Mr Raynor was killed by a pistol shot. It was fired at short range, the bullet entered his heart and death was practically in stantaneous. Rut an autopsy his ] revealed the fact that Mr. Raynor was also the victim of poisoning.” He paused and looked at one after another of the silent group. Only Miss Mattie showed excitement. “Yes,” Fraser went on, "an examination of the contents of the stomach shows the presence of arsenic, taken very lately. ’ As may not be known to you laymen, the symptoms of cumulative arsenical poisoning are anemia, shortness of breath occasional prostration. pallor, and excessive thirst. All these things were iw*®*nt ir Mr. Raynor's case, and I’m sure you can remember them.” "I do,” Miss Mattie cried. “Oh, my poor Douglas!

in her hands. “This," Fraser went on, "opens up anew field of inquiry. We must a surne that pome one administered tlu arsenic day to day—- " Unless It was suicide,” put it. Ezra Goddard. "There is that possibility," Fraser admitted, "but it is highly improb at ie. To resume, this process of arsenical poisoning of Mr. Raynor must have been going on for at least n fortnight or so. and had he not been shot, and had the poisoning cor. tinned, the man must have died fnn its effects in the course of anothei fortnight." The alert eyes of Detective Dob bins scrutinized the faces before him. Rut. save for the contorted am ! agonized countenance of Miss Mattb they were ali stonily devoid of ex presalon. Nancy Raynor looked like a statu* cut in marble. Her face was color Dss, even her lipe were almost whit< and her great dark eyes wen piercingly fastened on the face of Dr. Fraser. "Can any one present," Fraser went on. "suggest any explanation of this poisoning process?” As no ono replied, he questioner each in turn. "Certainly not," Nancy Raynor said, her face and manner perfectly composed. “I cannot imagine who would attempt to poison my husband, and I am most certainly sure h< never thought of doing such a thing himself. "The thing is almost incredible,’ Orville Kent said, in turn. “Why, It somebody was successfully poison- : ing a man, would he also shoot him?" "That Is a question easy to ask and difficult to answer,” Dobbins declared. "Miss Turner," Fraser said, "as nurse and dietitian to Mr. Raynor, did you not notice the symptoms I have described?” "Not to think of them as symptoms of poisoning," Eva Turner answered. "1 noticed that Mr. Raynor was pale, was anemic, and that at times he showed shortness of breath, but these things I was trying to correct by changes in his diet. As you know, Dr. Fraser, those symptoms you mention are not exclusively the effect of arsenical poisoning." "No, of course not. You couldn't be expected to realize their cause. But now, having discovered the presence of arsenic in his system and in his stomach, we know—we know that Mr. Raynor was being purposely and systematically dosed with arsenic.” He paused and glanced around.
