Beechwood was to be sold. Home of the Endicotts for u counted generations, mellowed by true and hallowed by tradition, it was to go into alien hands, burdened, it was whispered. by mortagages which would leave little enough for I fast vanishing estate.
Gloria. heard some of the flying rumors. The estate was a shell which had callapsed at the first touch. For years Miss Endicolt had

been living bcyond her income, mortagaging here, selling there, investing fllghtily, all to secure
money for the style of living which she had firmly believed to the right and duty of an Endicott.
Gloria began to see why it was that the self-willed, deluded wo- man had plunged so heavily in reckless investment in a last fran- tic effort to rehabilitate for Jack the solid fortune that had let slip through her fingers. It had made her, in her enormous ignorance, an easy dupe for Parsons. Gloria could imagine the terror of those last days. the passionate effort of a frightened old woinan to assure herself that' all wns well. She could be sorry for Miss Endicott now.
Meantime she sent fl letter to Carver. It told him the things she had meant to say months ago.
Hr came by the next limited. but he did not go to the Granllden Almrtnvcnls. He came instead to. the Ritz and asked for Miss Stami- ton. There was a comfortiin: firm- ness in the grip of his hand.
"What can I do for you?"
"I am almost ashamed to ask any- thing of you,” she confessed. "I should have told you long ago, but at first I was afraid, and then-”
"I see. 'John Carver" was only .1 name on a letterhead and you did not know what he might do. As a matter of fact." he added. "I so- spected somctliing of the kind a.nd verified it later, Besides, when the Endicott. murder occurred, your husband's name and picture were in all the papers. but no mention of a wife." He smiled again. but become serious before the stricken look in her eyes.
"However, that makes no dif- ference. when you married you fulfilled the terms of the will. Your uncle could have gone further and made the terms more binding, bu: he did not. Now, what else?"
"I should like to buy Beechwood Miss Endic0tt's place. Mr, Moro. land's home. It is heavily mortg aged and will have to go. I want you to get it for me so that he will not know that. I am doing it." The lawyer pursed his ups thoughtfully and nodded. Perhaps he was hearing again the crisp voice of a young husband briefly
declining to have a share of his
' wife's fortune settled on him.

see the agent at once." M the door he turned again with a wise little nod. "Some day I hope you will both be there. He is a fine boy and very much in love. if my eyes are worth as much as I think the-1 are."
Gloria smiled because she must and shook her head. In love? Yes. he had been then. but she had thrown it away and now another woman was by his side only too eager to take him from her.
It -was all done quietly and smoothly. In a week's time Beech- wood had -been bought in by Car- ver and Sara Dalton was establish- ed there as caretaker.
Not all of Beechwood had been for sale. originally a large tract the Beechwood lands still stretch- ed back into acres of farm and wood and pasture land long held idle until it ended in an irregular strip not far from the village, with a bleak old mill, long abandoned, by the side of the cheerful little "river" that wandered through; Some bygone Endicott had started a factory there, a offshoot of the great Emdicott. mills which had founded the family fortunes, and ghostly looms still stood there in dusty darkness. This was the property of all of his vanishing heritage that Jack had chosen to retain. It was puzzling.
Cruising lazily in southern wa- ters Jack Moreland came back to health and then to restlessness. lie insisted on getting reports from his agent at home, winced a trifle under the news that Beechwood must be sold. but accepted it grim- ly. He was learning how little would be left to him. He was get- ting better rapidly, but the rest- lessness grew.
At Colon he announced his de-
cisinn.
You have been wonderfully good to me and I should be delighted to finish the cruise with you, but now that I am on my feet again I must get back home. There are things I must attend to there. I think I shall catch the boat to New Orleans and take the next train north."
Mrs. Dickerson heard him with voluble dismay, Frances Payne with rigid anger.
"Jack. I believe you want to go," she said reproachfully.
"I must, Frances. I have busi- ness to attend to."
"It is that glrll" she said to her- self resentfully, she thought of a
charming apartment with the single word "Moreland" on the door. she must contrive to keep
them apart and estranged until she could establish her hold on him. Then she remembered Wayne Gorham, utterly unscrupulous and mysteriously interested m Gloria Things could happen when she told Gotham of her discovery. she was ready to tell him now. Jack left them at Colon.Twenty- four hours later the Dickerson yacht, its cruise cut short, was steaming up the coast again, bound for New York. 0 I 0 Gloria Amel: Sophie Daimler one afternoon and was borne off at once to the nearest place for tea "Glory.

"out of town a (rest deal.”
Gloria warmed under the im- pulsive greeting. she liked sovhln Daimler."
"live so much to tell you.” Sophie paused to give her order to the waiter and settled down to confidence. "Let me see, where shall we begin? I haven't seen you since the night of Amy's wedding. And things have happened so fact since that time. That dreadful murder- poor Miss nldlcolt. you know- and Jack More1and's trouble. We were so shocked about it that we simply couldn't think of snythins else for days."
"Yes, it was a terrible thing. But he is free now and I suppose he is much better."
Gloria wonderuu if she was speaking naturally. "Yes. he is free. but it was s
dreadful ordeal for him. Bill saw him yesterday” and he says he isn't like himself at all, so quiet and reticent; almost morme"
"Oh, he has returned?" Gloria could scarcely keep the relief from her voice.
"Yes, he came up from New Orleans by train instead of going on with the qthers, and he is at work already. We think it is much too soon, but he will do it. Poor Jack, I suppose he has to now. Fo- ther says the estate has sirnplv fallen to pieces. He is with tho Garrett-Hudson Motor Sales Com- pany, selling cars. They have a big showroom, yon know. and you go there to look at a car and they call 'ourMr. Moreland'totake you and show the car off and make the sale. It. seems queer for a man like Jack: but you 've met him. haven't you?"
"Yes. I know him," Gloria said quickly. "I met him at Beechwood when I was Miss Endlcott's sacru- tary. She was very devoted to him."
In her own room, a little later Gloria feverishly searched the directories for the showroom of the Garrett-I-Iudson Motor sales Company.
"'I'hat must be the place." she decided, and looked up at Cecile who was laying out her gown for the evening.
"Cecile I think I shall buy a new car,"
She said the same thing the next morning, but this time it -was to herself as she tucked a curl into a more becoming spot. under her small hat. Her cheeks wore flushed and her eyes bright, half in eagerness and half in trepidat ion.
"I'm going to buy a car-to bu) a cart she sang to herself as shi- made ready to go. "And Jack will have to sell it to me!"
She went alone for obvious rea sons, boarding a crowded bus as in the days of poverty. and getting off at. the corner opposite the Garrett-Hudson showrooms They faced on Broadway with a long expanse of window along thu side street, where shining new cars were ranged. Across the radiator of a big 'limouslne she had ll glimpse of Jack, tall, graceful. thin, but browned with sea breezes. talking to another man
when she entered-he had disap- peared.
