wv Tittle, Brown and, Company ~ BEGIN HERE TODAY Was the body of that gay young lleu- tenant, Barney Loutrelle Jylng cold and stiff in the snow and ice? This was the fear in the heart of Ethel Carew, when she rushed from the home of her grim old grandfather, Lucas Cullen, Senior, who had been struck with anger and terror when he learned that Loutrelle was going to Resurrection Rock, that ghostly island je Lake Huron, with its unoccupied house, Loutrelle and Ethel had met in these northern woods © Michigan. In London he had received, In a seance, messages from Ethel's father, instructing him to go to the Rock---a trip which he hoped 'would clear up his obscure parentage. Old Lucas Cullen, winner of millions in violent battles for thiiber land in the early days, tries to prevent Loutrelle from reaching the Rock and Ethel fears hat Barney had been killed by Kinche- Joe, avting under Cullen's orders. She iries to reach the Rock herself, GO ON WITH THE STORY Ethel reached the lake and removed her skis. Kincheloe was still far ahead of her, but he was exhibiting an uneasiness which restored to Ethel her fears of the night, Miss Platt's husband seemed to be losing determ- ination; he no longer was. hurrying but was glancing back often at her, and he was wandering off from the direct line to Resurrection Rock. She noticed that'something on the shore seemed to disturb him and, look- ing about, Ethel observed that Asa Redbird had emerged from the trees and was hastening after them. Asa was carrying his rifle. "You want me to stop him?" Asa inquired when he came up. Ethel shook her head. with me." In silence they completed their jour- ney to the mysterious house on Re- surrection Rock. There were no signs of life and when Ethel and Asa Red- bird reached the main entrance, the | girl received the first shock. The glass panel over the kncb had been broken, After a moment's hesi- tation, Ethel thrust her arm through [ihe hole so plainly prepared for turn- {ing the key from the outside. | Ac she did so she realind that neither Bagley nor Barney Loutrelle 121 "Just come chion, | "Bagley got key from Wheedon," to sleep now ~ {Asa explained.

What was Barney Loutrelle's? He had been sent across the ocean to the room. Why? She moved nearer the mantel and gazed at the design incised over the fireplace; it bore a dignified, formal device like--yes, very like--the device wrought upon Barney Loutrelle's ring. They searched the house thoroughly. No one, living or dead, was in the events alike; Asa, indeed, had discov- ered more than she. "What kept you up there?" she asked him. He said he would show her; and together they ascended the steps in the Rock. He led her to the part of the floor where the dogs had been sniffing. "Somebody washed right here, you see. Somebody did it last night, I place else." "Somebody burned cloth in fire-} place," Asa informed, going to the hearth and producing a ashes which exhibited the woven tex-: ture of cloth; he produced also a char- ved bit of shaped wood which had been the back of a scrubbing brush. Asal offered it to her and she put out her hand to take it, and then she could not {ouch it. Blood had stained it before it had been burnt; Kincheloe had put it in the fire to burn away--blood. Asa had let go c? it, thinking that she was taking it, and it dropped to the floor between them. It was to . make sure that such trifles as this "You want me to stop him?" Asa]were completely burnt, she thought, inquired. that Kincheloe wished to come to the Rock early this morning. She could think these things; but she could not say them. She told him about the mat of blood in Lad's hair. Asa went out and examined the dog. house; nowhere had they come upon sign of violence or indication of couse for Barney Loutrelle's disappearance.
