At length, Father Anthony gave a kind of inquisitive, dry cough, by way of experiment, which was instantly responded to by another cough equally dry and mysterious.
But early in the following November Anthony Ross got influenza, recovered, went out too soon, got a fresh chill, and in two days developed double pneumonia. His heart gave out, and before his many friends had realised he was at all seriously ill, he died. Jan, stunned, bewildered, and heart-broken, yet contrived to keep her head. She got rid of the big house in St.
