Police find a woman's handkerchief and the stub of a yellow theatre ticket. Janet Rand, his daughter, .breaks her. engagement. with Barry Colvin, because of the "disgrace." Jimmy Rand, his son, goes to Chicago, where the theatre is. The stub is traced to Thomas Fogarty, a political boss, who says he gave it to Olga Maynard, a cabaret sing- er. Jimmy meets and falls in love -with Mary Lowell. Later he encounters Olga. She faints at hearing police want her for murder. Mary, out with Sam- uel Church, a wealthy lawyer, sees Jimmy lift Olga into a taxi and misunderstands. Olga tells pomce the stub might have come into posses. sion of a man who "picked her up" two nights before the * murder. Jimmy receives my- sterious warnings to leave Chicago and later is attacked at night by two men, but escapes. With Jimmy and Mary. es- trangled, Church gets Mary's promise to marry him. Mary tells Jimmy this when they meet and he, trying to hurt her, accuses her of marrying for money, That evening Jimmy and Olga sec, in an auto, a man they both recognize--she sas the man who got the stub, he as one of his attackers. The man and his. companion escape. Later they recognize his police picture as that of Tke Jensen. Church, out driving with Mary, runs over a dog. His heartlessness kindles hatred in her and she breaks their en- gagement. The next day he at- tempts a reconciliation at her office but fails. On the street he encounters Jimmy, who of- ~fers his hand in congratula- tion. Church snarls and turns away. ' Chapter XXXII O'Day waved Jimmy Rand's ques- tion aside. "Tell me all you know about your grandfather and we'll see how the stories fit." . "Very little," Jimmy answered. "Dad never mentioned him around the house. My father never. said much about his past, but he hinted | that he had rum away from home as a boy." 2 "He never talked about Thaddeus Rand at all?" s "1 know nothing about my grand- | father whatever. I've never even séen a picture of him. I'm sure Dad was a little bitter abgut him. There was some kind of estrangement and Dad left him." "And you don't know about your father's past?" "Not "as thing. For the last thirty years he had worked in the same place, and lived in the same town. That's about all any of the family knows about him. Once in a while, when he'd be correcting my sister or me for something we had done, he'd say that we were being dealt with a great deal more lenlently than he had been as a boy. "shat's about as far as he'd go. I've always imagined, from that, Thaddeus Rand was a pretty stern parent." "A hard man." O'Day nodded his head gravely. "You ' knew him," Jimmy asked. "Yes an' I knew your father after a fashion, although he was a lad of anything little shaver just startin' school." O'Day chewed reflectively on his cigar. "It's funny, the tricks a man's 'memory will play on him. I wonder now that I didn't connect your fa- ther with this Henry Rand that I knew nearly forty years ago, when 1 first heard your story. Now I know what it is about you that's had me wonderin' where I'd seen you before. It's your resemblance to old Thad- dens Rand. "Yes, 1 know the story, all right. "Twill take a bit 'of tellin' for it's been many a year since it all hap- pened an' it's no compliment exact- ly to your grandfather, but I guess you can stand to hear it." d "Just so it's the truth, Lieuten- fant. I want to hear it all" Jimmy Jaid his hand on 'the other's arm. "Go on." he urged. "I'll try to give the truth. Mind, now, I was & kid of seven or there | abouts--it happened back in 1886 or 4 1887--an' some of it might not come back to me just right, But the story was gossip In our little town for years, long after your father and | grandfather had left. : Henry Rand was his only pet ad 'to drink sodas in his store when | "Thaddeus Rand was a widower |. Fi when -he came to Durbin to tive, Harry we called him in those days. He was a proud man, a cold 'man. I recall my father saying that Thad- deus Rand had come from Virginia an' that he boasted that his ances- | tors had been among the original settlers of Virginia. "At any rate we all knew that he was proud of his name an' he Cavalier forefathers." O'Day got up from his chair. "I want another cigar. Let's go in the living room ' where it's more comfortable." He installed Jimmy in an easy chair and sat heavily in a rocker. Mrs. O'Day; finished with. the dinner dishes, produced a sewing basket and sat in the dining room, knitting. O'Day, after lighting a fresh cigar, went on with his story. "It's important: that you know what a proud sort of man your grandfather was, Rand, so 'you'll understand the things he did. I can see his reason now, although at the time there did- n't seem to be any excuse at all for what he did. "Thaddeus Rand ran' the only drug store in town. If he'd had any competition he woulin't have got much businegs, for it wasn't a pleas- ure to deal with him. He was never a mixer, like most small town business men, but kept to himself as much as possible, When you went in his drug store you told him what you wajted and you got it. That's all there was to it. He was polite en- ough, bu: strictly business. I used I was a little shaver. That's one rea- son why I remember him so well. "I don't know how old your fa- ther--Harry Raad---was when Thaddeus came to Durbin, but he was just a little kid and he grew up with the rest of the boys an' went to school with em. Unlike his fa- ther; he was a real popular lad. He was just a regular boy--into every sort of mischief that red-blooded boys get into, an' fond of playin' pranks. He was a ring leader in all the sports an' he was generally look- ed up to by all the other village boys, People: used to wonder how Thaddeus Rand, with his cold, proud ways, could have such a son." "It's hard," said Jimmy, blinking, for he was pretty close to crying. "It's hard for me to imagine anyone calling my father Harry. As we knew him, Henry was about the only thing that suited him. A quiet little man, you know, in his gray suits and his derby hat--and his unfail- ing punctuality." "No doubt," 'said O'Day, "there was enough happened to him in his early years to change him an' make a different man of him. But T'll go on. 2 "Well, the years sort of moved along, an' Thaddeus Rand still kept his drug'store, makin' a fair livin* out of it, as proud as ever. He was as strict as sin with your father. Made him work in the drug store after school hours an' never let him out at night. It's a wonder the lad 'ever found time to play at all, but that he did, somehow, as I was telling you. "Thaddeus Rand didn't want his son mixin' so free with the other boys. He had a notion that a Rand was too good for the rest of us. But Harry cou'dn't see it that way. He made many frends. "I guess he was In his second or third year of high'school--about six- teen years old--when he got in this scrape. Mo fell in love, an' he fell hard. One of these schoolboy infat- uations, you understand, that we older folks always laugh at, but which are no laughin' matter at all when you've got ome. It-just about swept Harry Rand off his feet." "God! It's hard to realize that," exclaimed Jimmy softly. "My. father in a school boy love affair." "We've all had them, Rand, some of them mild cases and some of them pretty violent. © Your father was no exception. You didn't know your dad very well." "No, I didn't, and I'm sorry." "Well, this thing had been grow- ing for about a year. She was a year or so younger than Harry, ,a year behind him in school. . .

A ---- A AAA the village that Thaddeus an' An- gelo had had a fallin' out over their kids an' Marle an' Harry were not to speak to each other again. The kids tried hard, I guess, to be obedient children, an' for a while it looked like the thing was goin' to blow over. "Thaddeus kept a close watch on Harry, an' kept him in the drug store every minute of the day that he wasn't in school. As for Angelo, he made his son Louis walk to school an' back with Marie every day. "Te kids stood it for a while, but the things went alot deeper than anybody thought. Gradually they got to stealin' a few minutes together in school, an' then it got to the note writin' stage. There were "plenty of kids, girls mostly, who were willin' to carry notes between them. ' "Then that was found out, an' Harry an' Marie had another talkin' to from their parents. Thaddeus, they say, even went 80 far as to threaten to cast Harry off {if 'he didn't cut out his foolishness an' do ft right away. The boy came to school the next mornin', lookin' pale as a ghost, with his jaw stuck out, an' sald never a word. "Mind vou, I was too young at the time to know the whole story. I'm repeatin' it as it was told to me later on by my older brother, who was a clasrmate of Harry's. "Marie was cryin' when she came to school the next day. Some say that old Angelo had given her a lickin', which' I wouldn't put past him." O'Day lit a fresh cigar, then set- tled back in his chair. He continued, looking straight at Jimmy: "They didn't treat those kids right, Rand, I hope I'm never guilty of such cruelty to my own. They didn't say a word to anybody in school that mornin', but at lunch time they had disappeared. "They didn't show up all after noon.
