HOW IT WAS CLEARED UP.

iad

It was nearly three o'clock when Mr. | Gwinnett, who was hardly ever known to, be in a hurry, bustled into the front office | with a check in his banc.

‘Here, Kendall,’ call me from my! desk, ‘I must have the money on this, before the bunk closes, and there isn’t a) moment to lose.’

I clapped on my hast, and too the check | anid was off. !

fhe paying teller, as I entered the; bank, already had his thamb on the) spring which held up the small sash with | its pain of ground glass which was accus-| tomed to dropevery day so exactly at the! instant the hand of the bank clock points ed to three, that one might have suppos- ed the same machinery goveroed both.

‘You're just in time,’ said the pune- tual official,

‘And that only after a sharp ruo on you,’ I answered.

The bad joke was either unnoticed or treated with contempt. The money was counted out in silence, the spring touched aad the sash fell.

Within half a block I encountered El- nathan Ganche, a fellow-clerk, hastening to meet me.

‘Mr. Gwinnett was obliged to iuke the first train to B , said Elnathan, ‘and couldn’t wait your return. Another leaves half an hour later, and he wishes you to follow on that, with the money.’

‘Where vill he stop in B——.’

‘Oh! I had nearly forgo:ten to tell you that. At—at the—— House.

A glance at my watch proved that I had no time to spare, A smart walk brought me to the depot, whence the train started a moment after I had taken my seat.

It was sight when I stepped from the train at——. A touch on the shoulder made me turn «bout quickly.

‘Your name is Kendall?’ said a sharp- visaged, keenseyed man, in a mixed tone of questivg and assertion.

‘It is,’ 1 answered.

‘George Kendall ?’

I bowed stiffly, thinking the stranger a little inquisitive. ' E

He held up his finger, and a couple of policemen approached.

‘You must wecompany these gentlemen and mysel!,’ suid the sharp-visaged man,

‘Vay | ask why?’ I returned.

‘You shall leary ip good time,’ replied the other. ‘You might fiud it embarrass- ing to receive the explanativo here,’

A hack was called, which all f.ur of us entered without further parley, which I Saw was useless.

Atter a rapid drive of several minutes we alighted before a building with a bright light over the door, The sharp- featured man immediately entered, fol- lowed by the two policemen avd myself.

A man in uniform, behind « desk, took down my name, age and such other par- ticulurs, a», | suppose, it is usual to note on such occasions, Next I was put through a rigid search. eff.cts found upon me was, of course, the roll of bills I had drawn from the bank.

‘Perhaps you can explain how you eame by these,’ remarked the sharp- featured man dryly.

‘Certainly,’ 1 answered. ‘I drew them from the -—— Bank to-day, on my em- ployer, Mr. Gwinvett’s check,with which he sent me tothe bank for that purpose.’

‘Isn’t it a little singular,’ con inued my questioner, ‘thatafter getting the money, instead of carrying it to Mr. Gwinnett, you took the next train to 9)

‘Not at all,’ I replied, quickly. ‘I came with the money here at Mr. Gwin- nett’s request.’

‘How do you account, then, for his telegraphing a description of you far and wide, aod offering a reward for your ar- rest ?’

I was thunderstruck at this announce- meut, and my munifest confusion was in- terpreted 28 an additional evidenve of guilt.

L was locked up over night at the sta— tion house, and next day was taken back as a prisoner to confront my employer,and answer to a charge of embezzlement.

I had, as yet, entertained no suspicion of Eloathan Ganchea. I felt sure he had fallen into some mistake, not yet cleared up, in communicating tome Mr: Gwin- nett’s messaye, and was confident that Ganche’s testimony would put everything | to rights. ,
