The newspapers referred to the star and her constellation as Beverly Carlysle and her Broadway Beauties. It had been unvicious, young, and highly entertaining, and it had cost Judson Clark his membership in his father's conservative old clubs. For a time it livened the theatrical world with escapades that were harmless enough, if sensational.
He determined finally to take the chance, claim to be L 22, and if Melis had seen the advertisement and replied, get the letter. It would be easy to square it with the valet, by saying that he had recognized him in the theater and that Miss Carlysle wished to send him a box.
When Bassett could apparently find nothing to say he went on: "You say I may be arrested if I go out on the street. And you rather more than intimate that a woman named Beverly Carlysle is mixed up in it somehow. I take it that I knew her." "Yes. You knew her," Bassett said slowly. At the intimation in his tone Dick surveyed him for a moment without speaking.
"I don't know about this to-night, Livingstone. You look pretty well shot to pieces." "I didn't sleep last night. I'm all right. Go on." During the reading that followed he sat back in his deep chair, his eyes closed. Except that once or twice he clenched his hands he made no movement whatever. Q. "What is your name?" A. "Anne Elizabeth Lucas. My stage name is Beverly Carlysle."
"I suppose you would stake your life on the fact that Beverly Carlysle knows nothing of what happened that night at the ranch?" Dick's face twitched, but he returned Bassett's gaze steadily. "She has no criminal knowledge, if that is what you mean." "I am not so sure of it." "I think you'd better explain that." At the cold anger in Dick's voice Bassett stared at him. So that was how the wind lay.
For, of this reconstructive period and its great opportunities for militant and active Catholics, we may say what Carlysle said of the period that followed the French Revolution; "Joy was it, in that age, to be living and to be young, was very heaven." The task indeed is enormous, but the incentive most inspiring.
Morgan, Beverly Carlysle, Dick in love and possibly going back to Norada. Unlike David, who was content that one emergency had passed, she looked ahead and saw their common life a series of such chances, with their anxieties and their dangers. She could not eat. Nevertheless when she herself admitted a new patient for Dick that afternoon, she had no premonition of trouble.
"How did you get the connection?" "I saw Melis, and learned that Hines was in it somehow. He was the connecting link between Beverly Carlysle and the Thorwald woman. But I couldn't connect him with Beverly herself, except by a chance. I wired a man I knew in Omaha, and he turned up the second marriage, and a daughter known on the stage as Beverly Carlysle." Bassett was in high spirits.
This 'G, whoever he is, is clearly warning my uncle against you. I want to know what he is warning him about." Bassett read the note carefully, and looked up. "I suppose you know who 'G' is?" "I do not. Do you?" "I'll give you another name, and maybe you'll get it. A name that I think will mean something to you. Beverly Carlysle." "The actress?"
I can tell you what the Clark ranch house looks like." And after a pause: "Can you imagine the reverse of a dream when you've dreamed you are guilty of something and wake up to find you are innocent? Who was the man?" Bassett watched him narrowly. "His name was Lucas. Howard Lucas." "All right. Now we have that, where does Beverly Carlysle come in?" "Clark was infatuated with her.
