Craddock had asked only one question concerning ihelr reception at th bulge, and that with some sternness He had demanded to know It Ihe letter which ha-1 seemed them such a cordial welcome ■ authentic, and the Norwrgl.ii had replied: "The letter Is genuine. It was wrltteli by a crown prince, and was his own sug gestion. not mine For the present lei that suffice.” Their host was bluff, heariy and thor oughly cordial In Ihe honesty of his nwrn nature he had not a su*iclon that these men were not what they s—-med; anl. Indeed, they were not othe wise. He tret-le them wholly welcome, and they were pre sented to the other v.tests without •■xm mstit or reservation. T e Indies t hey did rot encounter until evening, and then the Princess was not present. Craddock watched Thor nar ow Iy, hut he could not discover one sign of lmpattenc* or doubt. The face of Ihe Norwegian was as placid and as full of cnnthtcncc as It ever had been. On the morning of the second day. when the hunting party le't the l.xlgr Thor was not among those who compriaed |t Craddock, however made hla excusea for he noticed that the I’rt ce-e was als-> ab sant.
