She was 'brown 'with the dust and
draped with the cobwebs, which had
come from the walls of her hiding
place, Her face, too, was streaked
with grime, and at the best she could
never have been handsome, for she had
the '-,exact physical characteristics
which Holmes had divlned, with, ln
additionf a long and obstinate chin.
What with her natural blindness, and
what with the change from dark to
light, she stood as one dazed, blinking
about her to see where and who we
were. And yet, in spite of all these
disadvantages, there was n certain no-
bility in the wo1nan's bearing, a gui-
lantry in the defiant chin and in the
npriilsed head, which compelled some-
thing of respect and admiration.
smnidy Hopkins and inid nie anna
upon hcr arm and claimed her as his`
prisoner, but she waved him aside
gently and yet with an overmostering
dignity which compelled obedience.
The old man lay back in his chair
with a twitching face and stared at
her 'with -brooding eyes. .
"Yes, sir, I am your prisoner,” she
said. “From where I stood I could bear
everything, and I know that you have
was I who killed the young man. But
you are right-you who say it was an
accident, I did not even know that lt
for in my despair 1 snatched anything
from the table and struck at him to
make him let me go. It is the truth
that I tell." _
“l\indam," said Holmes, “I am sure
that it is the truth. I fear that you are
for from well.”
She had turned a dreadful color, the
more ghastly under the dark dust
streaks upon her face. She seated her-
self on the side of the bed; then she re-
sumed. '
“I have only n little time bere," she
said, “but I would have you to know
the whole truth. I sm this man's wife.
He is not an Englishman. He is a Rus-
sian. His name I will not tell.”
For the tlrst time the old man stirred.
“God bless you, Anna!" he cried. "God
,..
bless you.
She cast a look of the deepest disdain
in bis direction. “Why should you cling
so hard to that wretched life of yours,
Scrglusl" said she. “It has done harm
to many and good to none, not even
yourself. However, it is not for me to
cause the frail thread to be snapped
before God’s time. I have enough al-
ready upon my smil since I crossed the
threshold of this cursed house. But I
must speak or I shall be too late.
“I have said, gentlemen, that I am
foolish girl of twenty when wo mar-
ried. It was in a city of Russia, a unl-
verslty-I will not name the place."
“God bless you, Annsl" murmured
the old man again.
“We were reformers, revolutlonists,
nlhlllsts, you understand-he and 1
and many more. Then there camo n
time of trouble. A police omcer was
killed, many were arrested, evidence
was wanted, and in order to save his
own life and earn s great reward my
husband betrayed his own wife and his
companions. Yes, we were all arrested
upon his confession. Some of us found
our way to the gallows and some to Si-
beria. I was among these last. but my
term was not for life. My husband
came to England with his ill gotten
gains and has lived in quiet ever since,
knowing well that if the Brotherhood
knew where he was not a week would
pass before justice would be done." '
The old uma reached out s trembling
hand and helped himself to a cigarette.
“I lim in your bands, Anna," said he.
“You were always good to me."
“I have not yet told you the height
of his villainy," said she. "Among our
comrades of the order there was one
who was the friend of my heart. Hs
was noble. uaseiilsb, loving-all that
my husband was not. He hated vio-
lence. We were all guilty, ff that is
guilt, but he.was not. He wrote for-
ever dissunding us from such a course.
These lafterswould have saved him.
So would my diary, in which from day
to day I had entered both my feelings
toward him and the view which each
of us had taken. My husband .found
and kept both diary and letters. He
hid them, and he ti-led hard to swear
