It was the second day of my renewed life and I felt much stronger, and had been watching Mutterelli with a feeling of amusement as he puttered around, doing this and that for his own comfort and mine. "Ask it, signor," he replied. "There is no law in the grotto to compel me to answer it if 1 don't want to." "No," I said. "Hut there is no reason why you should not tell me this, if you know. Have you any idea who really killed l'aoho MaligiiiT" Everything dropped from Mutter-elli'hands, and he stared at me, seemingly overcome with surprise. "Who killed who who killed What is that, signor? Oh, yes, forgot. No, signer, 1 do not know who killed Maligni. You did not kill him?" "No," I replied. "I swear it. I did not even see him struck. I was outside of the villa making my way to the gale with Nita Barlotti, when I heard him cry out and heard the alarm given. I saw him when I was on the balcony, but he got up from his chair and left the room. The next time I saw him, he was lying dead. I am as much in the dark about it as any one." Mutterelli whistled. "This is news to me, signor. I thought, of course, you killed Malignt. But if you did not, then who the deuce did?" "I don't know. Tliat is what I want to know." "You shall know, signor," said Mut terelli, and his jaw snapped. "Nearly a month has been wasted, In which perhaps, I could have run tho murderer down and set you free. But I will do it yet, signor. Do not fear. I will know who the murderer of is in less than sixteen days more." "Find him," I said, "and the twentyfive thousand lire that I promised you shall be doubled." Mutter "Ah! Thank you, signor. elli is faithful, but he is poor. ThereI must see fore he is grateful. Brother Michael today. If I can find him." The last sentence seemed to be an afterthought. My own opinion was that if the wily Mutterelli wanted to see Brother Michael be would not need to go far a mirror would show him the Jesuit's face. That afternoon Mutterelli went away and did not return until long into the night. When he did come in, he breathed heavily, and seemed like a man who had been drinking much wine. I lay there in silence watching him as in the dim light of the candle he moved about preparing to go to bed In a far corner of the grotto, upon some boards laid lengthwise, some furs like those on which I lay had been placed. Upon this rude couch Mutterelli stretched himself, and was soon snoring away as-ihe was repos ing on the softest bed in his probably comtortable home in Genoa. And as I thought of it I laughed softly to my self. It was probably a strange place for Mutterelli to be sleeping. Yet more than that, the thought came to me that it was a strange couch for a monk. And laughing again at Mut terelli'a clumsy attempts to deceive me, I fell asleep. The days passed slowly after this, yet I mended rapidly, and my returning strength brought renewed ambi tion and stronger determination to carry to a successful issue the pur poses that had brought me to Sardinia. But I could get nothing out of Mutterelli. I plied him with ques tions about the monk and about the prefetto and about Nita Barlotti, but all I got, day after day, were reiterated cautions about leaving the grot to and vague and misty sentences about great plans being laid for my benefit by Mutterelli and "Brother Michael." Nita Barlotti was still at the country residence of the prefetto, and Mutterelli Informed me that It was rumored that she would soon become the bride of Count dl Pordlno. I could not see how or wherein the count was any improvement over Pacho Malignl, but Mutterelli partially reassured me by saying that the count w ould not be allowed to wed her, for when he and Brother Michael bad got my affairs straightened out, they would attend to the case of the Count di TorUlno and bis proposed HliHbi, M. 1 Ma-lig- .Has been remodeled under tb new management and fitted up with jfd Billiard Tables.

All this was pacifying and almost satisfying In the early days of my convalescence, but there came a day when I was ro longer weak, and when the blood, full of life, rushing through my body, gave me vigor and a desire to go outside again Into the world and see for myself what was going on, and do for myself what I had become at your door.

It was on one of these days, when Mutterelli wns away, that the spirit of unrest seized me, and I grew Impatient and nervous at my enforced idleness.
