"Yes, I know and she tried to do EVERYTHING for us, too," retorted Bertram, quizzically, as he turned away. Early in October Mrs. Stetson arrived at the Beacon Street house, but she did not stay long. "I've come for just a few things I want, and to do some shopping," she explained. "But Aunt Hannah," remonstrated William, "what is the meaning of this?
One man there was who might have helped the search, Earl Dexter. But Earl Dexter was himself wanted by Scotland Yard! From the time of the bank affair up to the moment when this beautiful visitor had come to my chambers I had thought Dexter, as well as Hassan, to have fled secretly from England. But the moment that I saw Carneta at my door I divined that The Stetson Man must still be in London.
"I reckon I'll put 'em a leetle furder out o' the way," he said, kicking the knife over the cliff; and, standing on a stone, he thrust them into a crevice high above his head. "Now, Jas, we'll fight this gredge out, as our grandads have done afore us." Lewallen and Stetson were man to man at last. Suspicion was gone now, and a short, brutal laugh came from the cliff.

"Will this plume, these trunks and hose, this bonnet please my fair Juliet?" sighs Romeo to his mirror. And "Will these here chaps and me bandanna and me new Stetson make a hit with me leetle Anita?" asks Sundown of the mesas.

"Sun spots, I suppose," put in Ralph Stetson jokingly.
"I hated it!" he growled. "First chance, I ran away. One of my sisters married a young fellow who's now the member for Chargon. I hope he enjoys it!" "That'd be Maddie," said Diana. "You know her?" asked Orne. Then he remembered what Stetson had told him, and the thought was chilling. "Of course I know her," said Diana. "Lew, what's wrong with you?"
This time there was a little sound after the words, which Aunt Hannah would have taken for a sob if she had not known that it must have been a laugh. Then Billy was gone. At eight o'clock the doorbell rang, and a minute later Rosa came up to say that Mr. Bertram Henshaw was down-stairs and wished to see Mrs. Stetson. Mrs. Stetson went down at once.
