Leonora waa In the library. She stood before the wladow loolcia« out upon the dreary day.
It had commenced to rain, and tbe drip of tbe water from the trees In tha garden made a dismal plctare. In keep- Ins with the afflicUoa that had risited tbb hoaae.
Aa I entered she turned quIcVIy, and seemed somewhat relieved when she found Hwaa myself
¦Dootor, are those peopla mmml' aha aaked.
•TToa, Miss Ijeonore. That was the Coroner and hia Jury—a rery aaoessary InUctlon in cases of this kind.
¦Tea, I know. What waa the verdict. Doctor?"
Hhe waa wonderfoUy -calm  and aalf- poaseaaad.   I could aot but noMca this —fact.
'They decided that Dr. Seabnrr came to his death by poiaon, adminiatered With hU own hand. *
Watobina her face cloaely I couM not ¦ee tbat ahe experienced any emotion. Her featurea were calm aa the aummer •hy.
"When ean T look npon my poor old IHend?"
Her worda relleyed no from a duty I did not like.
•Now If you desire. Are yaa capabia of atanding the shock?"
"Do not fear for me; I am stronger than you Imagine.    Will you go up with ¦aia. Doctor?"
'I bave a little wrtttag to doeenaeoted
with the rase.    So with yonr permlsalon
I will remain here until you comedown."
Insr-TaeatM myaelf at  a  desk
began to examine tbe phial   I  had
taken from the denad man'a hand, at tbe
same time drawing writing paper to me.
Tills phial was an odd UtUe thing, isade
of rrvRtal, to all appearaaeae.
It had boen burled ia th* Unsba of tha pyramids for thoaaanda of years, and no doubt might haVe arouaed a fever of in¬ tereat In the breast of a man like Doctor Scbliemann. Leanore had left tha room. I rpaliaed what a throw* trIek Ikiaww t. on the part of the old detective, and dls- ploasing as tlin idea was to me, I  could not forget that hU alma were juatiea  it¬ aalf.
The innocent wonld never tnifer at tb* hands of Abner Kotcham, and if gnilty It waa only the right thing tbat they should tm brought to tbe hat.
I commenced my wrlti^ V  Ssnif time pasiaAritHb   mo aarvoas had '^IberomVttiaiirWa. wAlflllHblty thaY t kept at my work.
At Isst I heard the rustle of akirta on tho stalra. Wben liOonore entered the library I was folding up what I had wrlttrn. aWiund tha ancient phial.
I looked up tntoher face. Unleas my eyes dpcelved me tbere wore tracea of tears there.
Thpre rushed upon me a mad deaire to «OB!<oI« hor—to pour out burning words of regrot at her lonely situation, aad to aHer my services in any manner aecept- able; but wiaalv I restrained mraelf.
She waa yet uodet the ban of" aoa- plcion.
Mnch as I tx-lieved firmly In her inno- eeaoa; it bad nut yet been clearly provan, tti ""TV mtn nr—"•'~(r that needed the rioseat iaveSti^ttan, I nnw dealred to aee Ut. Ketchaaa. To do ao, I mnst go np«taira again. In lookiag around for my hat, I fonnd that I bad left it in tbe chamber above, and leaving Leoaore. I aaceoded.
I fonnd Mr. Ketcham atanding ^borightfolly by the wladow. Ha turned aa I entered the room, and althongh I looked eagerly in hia faoe, I waa baffled. JgClemm the door and ait down. Doctor. ¦ ^is words, lanooant in themselves, •eet a chill through fiy heart Thajr meant thst h« had diaeovared aomething worth while repeating to ate.
Being deeply Intereated la the case, I could not do otherwiae than listen, eagerly.
"When Leonore entared tbe rooai, ahe atood right there for a minute with her hands claspel, her eyes glued bed snd that motlonieas figors.
"Tben she seemed to break tbe apetl that bound ber, and gliding forward fel I ou her knees beside tlie dead.
"Doctor, I have in my time looked up¬ on some  strange sights, but never one quite equal to that, where a girl we be¬ lieve guilty of   murder beads over tha form of her aged victim, aad foadla* his hand." I could not restrain a ery. "3be is Innocent, sir.   A  guilty soul «n>'.ild turn from suoh a sight in terror. Wiiy the dead must even arise to eoa- demn her did she dare do that* "Listen!"
I calmed myself under his taagnatle eye, and wai tMl to hear more.
The quiet assurance of bla nanaer gave me warning that In aome way Leonore hod not Improved her caae by tbe viait she hsd made to the death lied. "She remained there, appareatly eoa- Talaod with grief, aad yat aMatlag no sonad.
"Then I aaw her raise her head and clasp her hands convulsively, while she gazed down upoa tbe body.
"WodU^-ialL-AiAn her lips. They rMflRamy eara, and were traaaured every one aa having a deddad baariag oa the case.
•Thla waa exactly what she said, breathing the worda In apparent deep enaotk>n:
¦ 'My poor, murdered guardy, to t^lnk that it bas come at last, that which yoa
B*nd« ay attnit waa aArajad tbe evi* dence agalaat the gtrl.
In ona way It was overwhelming.^ I put It down ander differeat heads, so that II could be regulated.
First The photograph on tha back |.of which ths old doctof had writtea "Iieonore—tha c»nse of my daeplasf nighta and watchful aaya." it wonld Indicate, as Mr. Ketcham said, that there waa aomething wrong with the gtrl's mind, and tbat^her htvlng guardian was constantly expecting a periodical outbreak, during which ahe aeemed to seek his life.
Hts assertion to the deteeUve relative to an en$9y wh? had foUoired Um from India might be only a blind to hide the Inrth, aa he wss ast to ko senaltlva upoa thta point
Idlamiaaed thla from tay mind, and proceeded to the next point:
SecAnd. The discovery ot the lock of black hair In the hand of^Mte dead, nn¬ donbtedly torn from the hdB of the as- tetaln, and that, a woaua. It matched Leonora's hair exactly, and although in Itself this fact wat a simple thing, taken In tha light of eorrabarativa avMaaeo It wonld amount to a good deal, since she had been in his room that night
Third. The footprint* la tba daat of the oM store-room. We bad iHted Leo¬ nora's amall slipper to aotae ef theai, and found tbat they tallied exactly.
Fonrth. The discovery of the Malay ereeae In her room. It waa oatenalUy a paper cutter, but waa Just the weapon to b« eanght tijf and be put to de%dty iAe by a peraon whoae mind'waa unbalanced, and who In the delirium of sudden In' sanity was bent upon taking hnman Itfe. Fifth. Leonore's own worda and ac- tlona, aa wHneaaed and heard by tb* old detective, were atrongly aavored - with the View of the caae as he pnt It She seemed to avow that she was the cause of the Doctor's death, and bewail tha cniel fate that made It aa'. Of courae a different conatruction might be nnt upon ber worda onder new light, bat loat thes tbey seemed to Imply tba worat
When all theae facte ware wrraaged ia a Ilae hefore bm, they preaaated a tarrt* Ue ladietaaeat against Leonore. Ho wonder I was silent There were a few thing* on the other side, bat aa yet tbey wore overshadowed by the eoloaaal proportiona of the oppo'{ site evidence.
I was ready to work hard In order to provo her innorenre, bijt for the life of me   Just  then t did not know how to
While my mind had been dwelling npop these things, Mr. Ketcham waa regarding me with interest
I could detect a faint amilo lurking tn the corners of his mnutb, as though he could guess wbat wa* passing In my mind.
•nwa for the flrat ttaa I aoUoed b* baM a paper In his band.
The thought flashed upon my mind tbat he had found something in tho ebony desk bearing upon tho case.
Perhaps it was more evidence to fasten the (^1* around Leonp^b.
A* he held tM paper ont I mefhanically took it from his band. /
Itaaaawi to be a letter.^ Thare wa* BO data m It and yet j6mathing ahout ihmgggUktU!fJbAt.iCiiks aeveral yaara old.
I aatr It was addressed to the old Doc¬ tor, and aeemed to be from some friend out in Singapore.
Most of it was mera goaaip about tbe old frienda of Dr. Seabury la India.
Tben camo at paragraph that rivatad my attiMitk>n.
"Aad Laoaara—I healtata to approach that atibjact, knowing   how It concerns your daya aad nights—how ts abe?   Haa aaythlag oeci«^)i4i yet?   I bope na|,ln Heavea'a name, and that that terrfljle scourge may nevar viait again  my dd friend Seabury." Tbat wa* all on tbat subject Sick at heart, I banded the papar back to the detactlva. "Well, Doctor?", .    *,      u
"I am afraid aU roads tead to Same, alr."
"Then yon admit that at feast J hava good reaaons for my auaplclons?" ^/., . ' i -Alaa! it is too true." :  '•   "
"Doetor. you' Uke It too mnoh tobeari Beaiember that evea If guilty, the girl eannot be punished. Sha waa inaane at ths time."
"What yon aay ddea not take away tbe ating, air?"
"See here, Doetor, am I to depend upon you any further In thirilbse?" I turned upon him indignantly. "No,   sir; not so long as It ooatat to hunting down a poor girl.    That la iHial- naaa with you, but none of mine." "Than you waah your handa of It?* •Not at all.   Wblle you are aeeklag to tlghtea tho rolla   around Leonore, Mr. Ketcham. I shall be using my utmoat en¬ deavors to   prove   her  lanocence.    We SbaU aaa wbo wlll win tbe game." Hia faoe'brigbtaaed. "Oive me your band. Doctor!

Shaking handa witb the aoldier, I left the hotel.
My flrat attempt Inatead of bringing a gleam of light had added to the dark¬ neaa.
If tbla kept on, I woald aooa be com¬ pelled to grope my way.

Beiag poasaaaed of aa adventaroaa torn, I had aaaa much of the great eity. Still, I would bave batlUtad aboat an- gaglag In any aiKb nadartaklag, had tbe canae t>oen an ordinary oae.
Aii that influenced me waa my deter¬ mination to leave no atone unturned tn the endeavor to aava Leoaore from tbe atorm douda gatbering aronnd ber.
A feverlab deaire to do aomething was npon ate.
Obeying my firat Impulae, I aonght agala tba straage bouse of Dr. Saabury.

That was all.
Stay, there was the postmark np in tbe rfgnt-band corner. That might be a very Importaat clew to me.
I oonld make It oat distinctly.
"New York, June 6, 8 p. m."
When I had read thla, I conid not help satlllng.
This vary day wsa Jnne Ttb, snd the letter i held had beea mailed in tbe ctty dnring the preceding afternoon.
What could be plainer?
The man who carried It mnst have pasaed over this wall since that tlip*.
There oonld not be the faintest shadow ot a donbt but that Theodore Parker, whoevM bs might prove to be, had been In thase grounds daring tha night thst witnsassd the murder.
Undonbtedly he waa the burglar who had climbed the vines, bent upon plun¬ der, t«d who had been concerned In sone way with the crime.

I pnt the letter la my pooket for I had alreiwly aeen there waa ap Incloanre of aome aort In the anvalapa. .
Then I aonght tha oOear, from whom I learned the address of the policeman whose beat took In Dr. Seabory's plaoe. - Ja^tsaaaty alaates I was rapplaff on tba door of a neat Iittia bonsa.
A tidy wife opened the door snd ush¬ ered me into the parlor, while' ahe went to call bar basband, wlu> was asleep. Presently ba put la an appearance. I saw he waa a good-natured Mlow, and at onca apoioglaM for dlaturblag bia.

He ahook hta head.
"We aea lota of 'em at all hours, ao I eant exactly aay aa how there was more OB last algbt than any other time."
"Talnk; waa there aay who aeeiaed to hover about tbe Seabary place?"
''ytem that yon mention It my pard aotl aae did see a fellow near tbe wall, a-dodglng along, bat ws' didn't pay aay attebtldntohfm."
-Why?*
"WaU, aro'd aeen him moro tban once In that place, and underatood' that he was lo love with oM Seabary's gal, and that the Doctor was down on him."
"Where did you get that impression?"
"Can't say, oxactly. Might have come from my pard, who's a great hand at readiag storlea Anyhow, he kinder sympathized with the feller, who waa a good-looking yoaof ebap. We ^ever bothered him."
-Then you ba«« asssi bis iaae?;.v yWteB, •tr:«T~—-^-' -^¦'^ K"What kind of a lefAAhg'UAk was bo2"
He assumed a reflective air.
1 reckon he had bright eyes, blue, I thlak they were, and wore a full yellow beard. When bis cap was off I aaw that his hair in front stood straight up, and that his forehead was moro square an' white than any I ever set eye on."
Tho worda 6f the policeman gave; me a aevere atart I thonght of a picture I had seen In Dr. Seabary's chamber, turned faee to the wall in a dark corner.
True, t|iat had beon tho head of a youag tmy,'bright and keen, but It had poa* iaa tri the aame peculiarity of yCllow hair apoken of by tho night patrol.,
Inataatiy thore flashed aeroaa my mind tbe conviction that I alght dia- cover aome conneotion betweeu the wonld-be burglar ai.d possible murderer and the origiual of tb* picture that waa turned to the wall.
