Raynor or Raynor had over him.”
"Uolng to ask him outright?”
“You are."
Grlmshawe Gannon sat on the little
porch of his unattractive old house.
"What do you want?" he growled.
"I don't know anything about the
Douglas murder!”
"Then you surely need feel no un
easiness at sight of a detective," said
Wise, cheerily.
"Two detectives,” amended Zlzi,
seating herself on the porch railing.
"Yes, I'm a detective," she added.
"I'd like nothing better than to have
you show me your collection and ex
plain It all to me.”
"Do you—do you tike that sort of
thing?” Gannon recovered his poise
somewhat as his thoughts were
swayed to hla beloved worf.
"Adore It! Hut no time Just now.
As you say, Mr. Gannon, you know
nothing about the Haynor, murder,
and that's Juat why we want a little
talk with you. . . . We can't get any
thing out of people who do know
about the crime—they won't tell."
"You know who tbpy are?”
"Maybe—maybe noC" Zlzi was In
her most flippant mo*d. "Any way.
you can tell us other things—and
don't you refuse now, or I'll have
the law on you.”
As she had fully expected, Grim
Cannon's face paled at the threat,
made fearful by the low tense voice
and the piercing gleam from the
black eyes.
"What oh you want to know?”
Gannon blurted out.
At a glance from Zlzi, Wise took
up the questioning.
"About th* will," he said. In a low,
even voice. "Where Is It 7”
"I don't know—l haven’t got It.”
"You had the copy—the little Fay
girl found It.”
"Yes—but I haven't the will Itself
—the signed will.”
I "All right, then I know who has.
Now, see here, Gannon—what do
you know of Douglas Raynor's past?
If you’ll come across with that. T'll
let up on the will business—for the
present."
"What do you mean—his past? He
never did anything wrong ”
"Oh. dl-irt he? Well. I say he
did. And, furthermore, I say you
know all about It -and you used thl*
knowledge for ’’
“Don't say It!" Gannon put up
his hand as If to ward off a blow.
“Don’t say that word—lt Isn't true!”
Wise saw at once the old man was
afraid of being accused of blackmail.
He believed that Gannon had been
persuaded to steal the will by a
stronger nature than his owri—Lionel
Raynor’s of course—and that Gan
non even now regretted It.
Hut It had to be proved, and Wise
set to work to verify his opinions,
k By the dint of careful and adroit
questioning, by judicious hints of
■Ths law," and fiy means of some
help here and there from Zlzi, Wise
finally drew from him the disgraceful
story of Raynor's life In so far ns It
affected th.e dead man's widow.
"DON’T SAY THAT WORD—IT
ISN'T TRUE!”
‘‘Yea,’' old Gannon recapitulated, "I
kne& he lied to MIM Kent, as ah* teas
then. I knew he niado up that yarn
about liar father being a criminal—a
forger—l knew he made her marry litaa
because If ahe didn't he'd split on her
father, and she'd bo disgraced and her
father'd be put In Jaid, and her broth
er'll die of ahamo—and, well, Ilaynor
put It to that girl In such a way that
ahe couldn't get out of marrying him
unless she brought her whole family
down to the dregs of dlsgracs. Ami
It wasn't true—lt wasn't true!" The
old man waxed furious now. "I know
the truth! Dounglas Itaynor commit
ted that forgery himself! I know Itl
I've always known it, and Raynor
knew I knew It! That's why he gave
me this house—gave tne money—let
me havo my own way! That'e why
he was afraid of me—and he was
afraid of me! He used to beg ms not
to tell his wife of his fraud on her—"
"l>ld you threaten to do so?"
“Yes. I did! To see him cringe
and crawl and beg for mercy. Oh,
1 had no Intention of telling her—but
1 loved to scare him!"
The old man shook with hysterical
emotion, that was between laughter
and anger. Then he sobered down,
suddenly.
"Hut she found out.” he said, al
most In a whisper. "She found out—
not through ma—but she overheard
some words we said one night, and
she gathered that he had deceived her
about her father."
"tVhad did ahe do?" Zlxl asked,
breathelcsaly.
"Sha srent straight to Raynor and
taxed him with It. He denied It, of
course—ahe couldn&t prove It—so she
could do nothing. Hut—after she
knew—l for one don't blame her for
killing him."
"Hush!" Wise said, sternly, "we
don’t know that she did kill him. Tell
me exactly of what he accused her
father."
"Why, he told her that her father
had committed a gorgery—long ago,
you know—ln his young days. He said
that he, Raynor, was the only one
who knew the truth, that unless she
married him he would expose her
father's guilt, and that If she would
marry him. it could remain hushed
up forsver."
"Didn't she ask her father about
It?"
"No! he was an Invalid—really very
Ul. The shock might kill him—Ray

grace would kill Orville Kent, who Is
of a proud, sensitive nature, and dell
cate as well. So, to save the bunch,

"Without proving hie story!" erlsd
Ztsl. »
,"How could she? She hRd no one

"And she was tn love with Mr. Fin
