THIS HAS HAPPENED VIRGINIA BREWSTER is In love with tut, NATHANIEL DANN, but she l® eked into promising to marry DEAN in one year If she fails to earn SIOO,OOO that he alleges £f r father cheated him out of. BREWSIER had lost his fortune before his death and VIRGINIA is left destitute. _hhe pawns some of her jewelry and OLIVER CUTTER promises to invest the money for her. She seeks work without success, and discovers that DEAN has “fjhed the agency not to help her. OLlgains her confidence and shows her attention which NIEL resents, but she does not like the familiarity with which “is model, CHIRI, treats him. .VIRGINIA finally obtains a position she likes. Shortly after she is charged by CUTTER’S wife with trying to alienate his affections. She appeals to him to explain, and demands an accounting of her investments. Then CUTTER confesses that he has not made a penny for her, but that he will give any amount to her if she will go 3way with him. She denounces him and leaves his office. Her company offers to send her on a voyage as ship hostess. She goes to see NIEL but CHIRPS presence in the studio spoils the evening. The break between the lovers is widened when NIEL doubts her love after receiving a letter from DEAN saying that she is angling for money. They both suffar in silence, and VIRGINIA sails before a reconciliation is effected. Her work and the hope of getting aid from one of her father’s friends, O. D. LEIGH, in Haiti, helps her endure the heartache. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XLIII VIRGINIA pressed forward against the rail on the stern deck and peered from under a hand that shaded her eyes from the bright morning sun. She was gazing kt Moro Castle, glad to be seeing that gloomy relicof departed glory for the last time It had fascinated her with its somber gray color and prison-like atmosphere, that symbolized so perfectly her own bondage. She had heard of the dungeons below the water line; she had listened to tales of horror and bravery about the old days of the Spanish and she had come to think of herself as a prisoner in the shadow of that grim pile of stone. Not until ihey sailed for Haiti would she feel otherwise, for riot until then could she count off the miles, or knots as it were in this case, that separated her from the land where resided the man who might save her. The colorful days of Havana that the passengers found so diverting and thrilling were only so many days of imprisonment to Virginia She was held as helplessly against her wish to depart as though she were indeed incarcerated in a dungeon in Moro Castle. It was slow torture, waiting amid lavish beauty and gaiety with pleasure-bent people whd expected her always to be carefree and interested in their entertainment. Their absorption of her did not extend to this early morning hour, however, and she took her farewell glance at the jewel-like city and famous old fortress undisturbed. The first, throb of the engines deep in the bowels of the ship had set her nerves to quivering with the excitement that attends an eagerly awaited moment. She was dressing, hurrying to be on deck, when the welcome sound leached her ears. She struggled into her stringcolored linen dress, seized a sweater and flew up to experience the satisfaction of witnessing the steamer’s departure from the scene of her impatient delay. She was turning away from the rail, having drunk in. enough of satisfaction and sun glare, her mind on her obligation to the Blue Capella, when she was joined by a man she did not recognize as a passenger. He was elderly and distinguished looking, with a thin, tropic-browned face.

“May I introduce myself?” he said in a quiet, pleasant voice. “Just came aboard this morning. Name is Fiance —John Harvey. “I was told you were the hostess and I presumed to believe I might speak to you.” Virginia smiled at him. “Why, of course,” she returned politely. “The Agena is just like a country house, you know. If you wish I’ll present you to the other guests, but you’re at liberty to count the roof as an introduction, you know.” “I think I’d prefer to meet them by degrees,” Fiance assured her. “I’m not exactly a member of the cruise, Miss Brewster, so you aren’t under compulsion to welcome me. Mr. Welkins kindly arranged to give me passage from Cuba to Haiti.” Virginia interrupted him with an eager little cry. “Haiti! Oh, are you acquainted there?” “Port au Prince has been my home for several years,” Fiance replied, with a look of surprise for her inquiry. Virginia’s face was aglow. “Perhaps you know Mr. Leigh,” she said quickly. “ ‘Oddly’ he is called by his friends.” “Old Oddly Leigh! We all know him by name down here in the islands, Miss Brewster, but I’m sorry to say I’m not personally acquainted - with him. Matter of fact, no one has seen much of him lately. He rarely leaves his plantation and I’ve heard ...” He paused and glanced anxiously at Virginia. “By the way, is he a friend of yours?” he asked, trying to sound casual. Virginia she ok her head. "No,” she said, “but my father knew him many years ago, in India. It is my greatest wish to meet him on this trip and I thought, when you said you lived in Haiti, that you might introduce us.”

“I’d be only too happy, but you will not need an introduction. Oddly will welcome the daughter of an old friend. I can vouch for that, on his reputation. Only . . . well, since it will not shock you as it wuold if you knew him, I must prepare you to find him greatly changed from the man your father knew. The poor fellow has had his troubles.” Virginia’s heart sank like a plummet. “Oh,” she cried in consternation; “what has happened to him? I met a friend in New York who had heard bad news about him, but I didn’t know then that it was the same man—the man who salved my father’s life, I mean.” Mr. Fiance’s lips set in a tight line. “It is hardly a subject you would care tp discuss,-Miss Brewster, I judge.” Virginia remained quiet for a moment. Then: “But . . . don’t you see? If there is anything 1 ought to know it because I’m going down there principally to see him It would be much easier, I think, if I knew what to expect.” “Yes, I believe it would,” h° agreed after a second thought. “Did you ever hear of Oddly’s wife?” he added abruptly. “His wife!” Virginia repeated “Why, I don’t remember that I ever did. I’m sure father never

mentioned her in his diary or when he spoke of Mr. Leign.” “Probably not. Mostr likely he never heard of her. No one had, I guess, until she suddenly appeared down here in the West Indies and dragged old Oddly’s name through all the slimy backwash of the islands. Then the story came out. She’d driven him from the States a few months after their marriage, and such was her hate of him because she lost him that she would not divorce him and marry the other man. “Oddly couldn’t do that because he didn’t believe in divorces. So he took to roving, thinking she’d free herself. But she didn’t. And when she came to Haiti she was still Mrs. O. D. D. Leigh and all the world could know it for all she cared. “It did to Leigh what the sugar trust hadn’t been able to do. It broke him. You’ll find him only the remnants of a man, I’m afraid. Miss Brewster.” “What became of . . . his wife?” “She went out in the gutter screaming in agony at a madman who didn’t know how to handle a knife ...” He broke oil sharply, suddenly aware of the effect of his words upon Virginia who was leaning, against the rail, white-faced and’ trembling. “I’m sorry,” he hastened to add. “Beastly of me, but I was thinking of the finest man in the world and what that woman did to him.” Virginia did not answer immediately. Finally she thanked him for telling her what he had and left him, to flee to her stateroom and try to compose herself to carry on her duties. “Touch of the tropics?” someone asked her at the breakfast table, regarding her untouched plate. “I suppose so,” she answered. “After Cuba everyone should take a good dose of salts,” another advised placidly. “It Isn’t safe not to. Everybody eats too much there. Never had better fish in my life.” The remark started a general recounting of the days just past and Virginia slipped out of the conver-

sation to commune with her own thoughts. They were not pleasant company, but she could not get away from them. Besides, the situation in which she now found herself must be faced. She had come upon a wild goose chase, it appeared. Still, on after thought, she realized that no one had said that Leigh had been impoverished by his wife’s conduct. Stacy had merely spoken of “bad news,” and surely the scandal and heartbreak would account for that. Fiance, too, had mentioned only that her coming had "broken” her husband. That did not necessarily mean that money losses were implied. A man could be more terribly broken in spirit. He had specifically said “what the sugar trust hae? not been able to do.” Hre heart ached for Oddly Leigh, but she was glad of a slim thread of hope for her own future. Such a man as Leigh would do all that lay in his power to release he: from the hold of anyone who. heid her father’s honor at stake, Virginia knew. She need not appeal to him for her own sake alone once he knew her story. For this Virginia breathed a prayer of thankfulness. She was chary about approaching anyone on her own behalf entirely. Her experience with Oliver Cutter had warned her of that danger. But here was one person whom the whole world seemed to trust A man who had known her father. Virginia felt she could pour out her heart to him in the sure knowledge that he would be as certain of Richard Brewster’s, innocence as she herself was. But the uncertainty of his ability to help her now hung, over the rest

of the voyage to Haiti like a heavy black cloud. Had it been necessary she could have gone to Fiance and asked him directly if he knew anything of Oddly Leigh’s financial affairs. But it would seem like prying to do so and she knew that she might he misunderstood unless she explained her reason for wishing tc know and she did not care to take Fiance into her confidence. Virginia preferred to endure the suspense, knowing that it could not be for long now. She got definite directions for reaching the Leigh plantation from Fiance, however and then turned desperately to the task of entertaining the Agena's passengers unt!' the day should come when she would return to the ship with a heart full of thanksgiving or only a bitter, hopeless despair.
