No voice responded to Louls’ knock at Raymond‘s door next morning, and, hurrying to Barnett’s room. Louis called excitedly, “Cousin Don, have you seen Rob '3" Barnett. splashing in his tub, shout- ed: “No. Can't you find him?” “He isn't in his room.” “He's gone dmvn to breakfast, then.

I can see that. his sister does not approve of his fondness for me, and she is quite right. I‘m not a. proper companion for a boy of his sort. I inclose a check. which squares us so {at as money can. but your kindness in other ways, and especially Mrs. Burnett's care and assistance, I am in despair of ever paying. I slide out be- cause it would be difficult and painful to say goodby. and. besides. I feel that I must cut loose from the boy. Raymond's note to Ann was short. almost curt: Since my thanks are a burden to you. the least I can do is to take myself out of your life and beg pardon for having entered it. Had I attended to my duties that night of the fire. you would not have been troubled by me. I stayed because you were beautiful. and that is the whoie truth. It is not the first time a man has neglected his duties for a woman. and the pain I now suffer in giving up all hope of meeting you again is a just punishment for my presumption. I am sorry to go without saying goodby to Louis. but it is best. I know you do not like his growing regard for me. and you are quite right. Louis came to her door and cried out dolefully, “Ann. Bob has gone away!” “I know it. Come in.” He entered with troubled, tearful face and in deeply aggrieved tone said: “He went without saying goodby. I want to go hunt him and bring him back, but Uncle Don says that we must respect his wish. All the same, I like him, and I want him back. No, I don’tâ€"I want to go with him.” “And leave me?" His resentment, long smoldering, burst forth: “Yes, I would! Don’t you suppose I have seen how you treated him? You think because you’re from New York you can snub a man like Bob, but you'rc not up to him. You’re not half as good :- : he is.” Ann listened in astonishment to this outburst from her brother and then cuttinxly remarked: “One would think I had taken away some plaything of yours. Go out of my room and stay out till you can treat me with respect.” “I'm going, and you'll never see me again. I'm going to follow Rob. 1 don’t care what you say.” With this defiant cry he rushed from the room. A. keen ache of jealousy ran through the proud girl's heart. The one soul of vital interest in her life. her sweet little brother, seemed about to pass from her hands to that of an adventurer. Her resentment of his influence blazed hot Within her. “I will defeat him with his own weapons.” she said. "I will win him back to me. I will go wherever he wishes to go." Bnt Louis did not return to lunch, and she was greatly troubled. He did not amen:- at dinner. and at Last. open- DURHAM CHRONICLE 'ly alarmed, Ann told Mrs. Barnett of Louis’ bitter accusation and of his threat that he would never return. “Don’t worry. Don will find him. He'll get tired of it and come back. These boyish tantrums don’t last." “It scares me to think of that poor, innocent lad spending the night alone in a big. wicked western city. I Wish Don would hurry home. Can’t I go down to his office?" When Barnett returned, Ann, white with anxiety, poured out her story. He comforted her by saying: “You take it too seriously. I will notify the police at Cinnabar and Mogalyon. They’ll locate him in an hour.” They did not find him, and Ann pass- ed a miserable night, imagining all sorts of ill adventures into which Louis might be led, and would have accompanied Barnett on his quest next day but for his firm command: “Don’t be absurd. I can find him alone much quicker.” With. these words in his ear Barnett took his way to his office. At lunch he was more concerned. “He’s not in Cinnabar nor any of the surrounding towns. He may have gone back to the ranch. I will wire out there this afternoon. Did he have any money?” “Bring him back if you have to use force!” she cried. And then, with a knowledge of Raymond’s power, she added: “If you find Mr. Raymond please tell him to send laddie home. Say I wish it.” Don whistled. “A smart boy can hide out a good while on that. How- ever, he’ll come back when his pet wears otf.” “Oh, no; there's no need of your going. I’ll telephone him at once.” “Yes. I had just given him his al- lowance. He must have had nearly $200.” Even though Raymond had taken himself bodily out of her life, his power to disturb and thwart Ann’s will remained. She began to fear him a little. He was bigger, more power; ful, than she had thought him. Could she have found him in the days which followedâ€"days of increasing unrest and anxietyâ€"she would have humbly asked him to find the runaway and bring him back to her, but he had d19- aImeared as utterly as it he had never D0 vour work and be kind.
