Her face plainly showed her to be of a highly nervous disposition, and in such perrons the craving for drink in very often I'm so sorry to linave disturbed you,” she ex-developed.

This is my cousin, Feo Ashwicke-Doctor Colkirk."

My wife turnel to me and bowed, a sweet amilo apon her tips.

I hope, Doctor, you will forgive me for bounding into the room like this," he said.

Certainly," I answered, still gazing at her like a man in a dream.

She had been introduced to ine as Feo Ash- wicke, the cousin of this rather curious woman Lady Pierrepoint-Lane. Yet there could be no doubt that she was actually Bory! Wynd, the sweet-faced girl whom I had seen lying cold and dead in that house of mystery eight days before.

Further, ele had admitted that she had secretly watched me is certain public places Why What possible object could a woman of her position have in taking the trouble to keep observation upon a humble doctor like myself a bachelor to bost?

Bachelor? Yes, I was a bachelor at the time she had watched me, but was now actually mar- ried to a woman who know me not Roader. I ask of yow could anything have been more strange?

To approach my wits boldly aut demand the truth was. I saw, useless. First, I raust, by my awn careful observation, establish her identity with Bery! Wynd, and, secondly, clear up the raystery of how a woman could be dead and yet still live,

It struck me that I might, by dint of careful questioning, learn something from Bir Henry's wife. But she was, I know, a clover intelligent woman, and if she hold a scerat it would be exceedingly diffoult to obtain knowledge of it.

I returned to Rowan Road, and on entering with my latch-Key, found Bob standing in the hall.

Why, my dear fellow," he cried, "I had a wire to say you were missing, and so came up to look after you. Where in the name of Fortuna have you been?"

I've been abroad, I responded vaguely. "Abrad! he cried, incredulously. Why? What made you go abroad ?”

I'll tell you all when we get upstairs." I enstrered, and we asconded togather to the littlo den.

Then over our pipes I related to him the enrious story, just as I have here made confes sion to you, my friendly reader.

"Well!" he declared, in profound amazement, I've never heard of a stranger adventure than that! Do you mean to say that you're actually married P

Without a doubt. A special licence was obtained, and the marriage is therefore quite legal. The most remarkable 'fact of all is that while I know my wife she doesn't know me. To her I'm a perfect stranger.

But the fellow Wynd, whoever he is, is 7. evidently no novice in orine." Bob declared thoughtfully. The contraction of the eye war s curions symptom.”

Yes. It was in the pupil of the left eye." "And yet the girl you have met to-day is por feetly sound in both eyes?” he marked,
