NOW CO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXIII JE VOS'S manner was cool, almost al-most indifferent. He seemed to be making conversation. Nevertheless Neverthe-less a little trickle of fear went up Linda's spine at the suggestion underlying un-derlying the random phrases. Tom's Tvords came back to her. "Not off the grounds." he had said. "In the boat" "I often take the wheel," she answered an-swered quite calmly, "but I'm no mechanic and scared to death of engines. Tom manages that." "And I suppose, like- most men. he would be enraged if another were to attempt the task In his absence." ab-sence." Still the . offhand, casual tone but for the moment Linda was utterly incapable of an answer. Instinctively In-stinctively she looked toward the house and his eyes followed hers. She nr.w him glance up toward the baler y and then knew by his expression ex-pression that his thoughts had ehifted to another subject. She could safely introduce the theme so much in her own mind! He spoke first, however, soberly but without constraint. "I see you have already mended the balcony railing. A shocking accident. Madame! I beg you to1mb1?red what was supposed to believe I am indeed sorry that it occurred." "Thank you." The ring of sincerity sin-cerity in his voice touched her. After all, it was foolish to think, just because he was interested In boats as was everyone else on BOOTS AND HER f .1 V I ' ' Jll Li m to- I WASHINGTON TUBBS VtU fc 8V TMZ tuXPERS, YOUR HlGUMeSS, THAT VOUR TAB0E UJAS QUn& A SGHSACTtom .

You " "I was there, you mean?" Aside from her desire to lead the talk back to the tragedy, Linda felt a surge of pure relief to speak about it openly. Seeing this, he relaxed his evident caution cau-tion lest he distress or displease her. "No. I don't know what happened, Mr. DeVos. It's been toldrtejust as if I'd been miles away." "Ah! We found you unconscious uncon-scious " rpiIE evident sympathy warmed her. She could speak freely to this now entirely attentive, courteous, understanding person. She thought fteetingly how much more natural Europeans were in any approach to trouble or un-happlpness, un-happlpness, which all too often tongue-tied the average self-conscious American. "Yes in my cousin's room. But I was downstairs when it happened. hap-pened. You know," she hesitated, remembering the events on the club porch, then plunged ahead, "he was to have left the house early this morning.

Tom went on down ahead of me. I came out on the terrace and " Her voice faltered. "Just as I did so, Cousin Amos must have fallen overhead. He his body hit the terrace right in front of me." "You say 'his body.' He was dead ?" "Not then. At least, his eyelids moved. That's why I left him. I rushed indoors for help " "You are very courageous, you American women.

She noticed a return to the polite boredom of his previous manner and recollected suddenly that no man enjoyed a detailed description of ailments and symptoms. symp-toms. "Then you came to my rescue all of you," she added to explain the personal pronoun as his eyebrows eye-brows lifted. He laughed' easily. "My dear Mrs. Averill, there was no need for rescue. Your verv Sod friend. Mr. Pratt, had already lifted you as Mr. Stat lander and I came in. We could only offer assistance. Then when your husband came, Mo naturally took command. ' "Poor Tom"! He must have been terribly u"pset!" A reminiscent smile twisted the corners of the Belgian's grave mouth. "Yes ah Mr. Averill was considerably upset. He ran upstairs up-stairs dripping from the water, so he was obliged to waive the very delightful duty of carrying you to your room in favor of Mr. Pratt. believe he yielded his privilege with some reluctance.' "Oh!" Nobody had told Linda this. It somewhat explained the stiffness between the two men. Poor Tom!

C4T HOPE you had a little sleep between coming back from the Club and the accident this morning," he said. "I'm sorry your rest was so disturbed. "Like you, I preferred not to retire." he answered. "The night was hot but there was a slight breeze off the water and I made myself comfortable in the chair by the window and dozedrff there. I must in fact have gone soundly asleep, for I did not hear your cousin's fall. Your own. Inside In-side the house, sounded faintly through my confused dreams and then I heard steps and voices which thoroughly roused me. Mr. Pratt, in fact, left his room with such such vigor and haste that it would have roused any sleeper." "Marvin does move energeti cally when he s in a hurry.

"A person of groat intensity," he commented. "For myself. I find such virile heartiness fatiguing." fatigu-ing." Perhaps Linda answered sensi bly. Perhaps her reply was what it seemed to her own ears, a feeble fee-ble and meaningless croak. For, facing toward the house, she had suddenly felt her eyes drawn upward. In that second, at the closed window of the nursery, she saw a face. Though it in stantly moved back to dissolve in the shadows of the room behind there was no mistaking the iron gray of the hair, the strong features, fea-tures, especially the prominent jaw.

Then she steadied, realizing that DeVos had noticed neither the apparition ap-parition nor her distress. Desperately Desper-ately she tried to think of some obvious remark to cloak her panic.
