J us: . youth of mixed blood and obscure heritage, born in the little country town on the Dixie Highway where Bates had encountered him, staring " the courthouse steeple in such pe- :ulinr fashion. That was en odd thing, but easily understood when you knew what the tragedy of his ill-starred life had been. Even a a limber-legtted youth, be had had aspirations-to be u hu- man ttr'. More daring than the other-J he had enjoyed impressing them with' his reckless ngilitr, and before long he had become a professional, travel- iu .boert with I manner who talked doles into paying him to carry their advertising signs on his back as he climbed public buildings. Enrique De lama was too much of a name for the typographers, how, ever. and less muerieab--his manager beraese6--than the English version of his name. Thus he became “Harry um, the Human Fly" on all the pos- ters. Armani when he branched out into other professions he often med the name as an alias. This oc- ronnted for Bowen's inability to un- tover his police record. But what, Bates interrupted at this point, had the village courthouse to do with all this? Was it merely sentiment that carried him back to [are upon it years afterward? "He tell, you see." Louise explain- ed.

He was frightened of going out by the window. That was why he didn't get the necklace-the woman rushed to the balcony, and he was afraid to follow her. "He got nothing but the bracelet, really.

"Mon Dieu, was he may when he learned who had got the bracelet', I would hang him, he said, by my stupidity. But he was wrong. It was not I. It was she-.'" They were nearing Key West now. The tug had put I. line aboard the "Gypsy" and in a moment hauled her free from the reef with no appre- ciable damage to her bottom. Mary had sent a radiogrnm to George Bow- en in care of his friend on the Miami paper, telling him of The Fly's con- fession, and ending: "Have minister at dock. You're to be best man." Just after sunset they put to along- side the pier at Key West, and the first man aboard was Bowen, looking for all the world like the cat that ate the cream. "How in the world did you get here so soon?" Mary asked, as he wrung her hand and greeted Dirk efrusively. "The paper sent me down in I plane," he explained. "Paper? What paper?" "One of the best.

He flashed a trifle under her good- humored tribe, but quickly recovered his poise. If it hurt to remember his unrealized hopes, he quickly hid "Thought I'd give the minister something to do on the way down," he said. "Bella came along and we were married in the plane. Only time we had-no time for a honey- mon even. Pair of lucky kids, you an! I suppose you'll be taking your honeymoon on this neat packet, and don't I envy you you? Oh, well, some gets the bone and some gets the gravy --that's life'." He was chattering to put himself at ease. "Thanks for those clippings," Mary told him. "They saved the day Louise simply wilted when they were shown to her. Threw Bruce overboard like Vain old shoe, and tried to salvage everything she could out of the wreck of her plana." _ "What are you going to do with the necklace.'" Mary smiled bitterly. "I’ll give it to you for a wedding present. Want it?" "Not in my family, thank gout. I'll have troubles enough without it." He held his hand about t foot tttl the floor, then raised it to two feet, then three. Bowen rose abruptly inl the midst of this foolery and demand- ed. "Can a man quench his thirst on this ship'?" "Hi, Steward." Dirk called. and made various requisitions which that worthy tr Ated off rapidly to fill. “I got a by-lined story of your radiogram," Bowen confided. "Would- n't be surprised if I'm city editor by this time. Going to stay down here and raise oranges and a little hell on the side-no more New York for me!

He was I changed man, she saw one. “Louise has gone ashore," she told him diffidently. His face darkened but he did not look unhnppy. "Thttt's all over," he said. "I meant to tell her so, but if she’s gone, so much the ', tter. Tell me about De Lorna. Did I-is he-dead?" "He's dead. But you didn't kill him. It was the fall that did that. Where did you get your pm.'" He looked surprised. "Why, your young man gave it to me the night we left Miami. He wasn't able to protect you himself and he more me in as deputy," he smiled wryly. "He was pretty badly) worried about you, but too stubborn to tell you. - guess-between us-- we've thought some pretty hard ‘things about you-and none of them l true." l "Thanks." Mary gave him her lhand, and a smile of complete friend- ‘liness. "Anyway, I'll be leaving Wall." Bruce did not release her hand 'tl quickly as he might have done. He seemed to be hanging on to his ttal age, trying to say something that cost him an effort. Finally he man- aged to blurt it out: “I'll be taking care of Dad from now on. You needn't worry about that. I wanted you to know," he ended lamely, badly embarrassed by this lapse into sentiment, but in dead- ly earnest nevertheless. He looked up as his father entered the room, radiant with pride and happiness. _ “Mary, my girl--" he began, and his voice broke.. Mary turned away,‘ unable to speak. He stopped her, held her chin tightly between his thumb and finger, while he forced the gray eyes to look into his. "Take the 'Gypsy' for your honey- moon, if you want her," he said.
