Sandoval said something about Barrios refusing to let him court Anitra while at the same time Barrios was engaged to Eulalie. Barrios retorted that the cases were different. He said he had decided that Anitra was going to marry an American millionaire." It was evident that he took it to mean himself.
My love meter tells me, however, that Anitra has something to say about it yet. She does not love this man. "As for Teresa de Leon, it was jealousy that impelled her to follow Jose Barrios from Cuba to New York. The murderer, in his scheming, knew it, saw a chance to use her, to encourage her, perhaps throw suspicion on her, if necessary.
"Since we brought him home, my brother just tosses and gasps for air. Oh, I think Eulalie and I shall both go mad!"

She paused.
"Please be calm," encouraged Kennedy. "Tell me everything anything." With an effort Anitra began again. "It was last night quite late at his office at the foot of Wall Street he was there alone," she strove to connect her broken thoughts. "Some one I think it must have been the janitor called me up at home and said that my brother was very ill. Eulalie was there with me. We hurried down to him.
He seemed to fairly devour every move that Anitra made about the apartment. A few minutes later the door opened again and a striking-looking man entered. He was a bit older than Sandoval, but still young. As he entered he bowed to Sandoval and Eulalie but greeted Anitra warmly. "Mr. "Mr. A call from Doctor Scott for some help took both girls into the sick-room for a moment.
