"Naturally I came along to dis- wss’ the thing with you," O'Hara. explained with q much of impati- ence. "You see, I was along there in tlie early hours o! this morn- ing, after it iaad happened. Wel- eome was along too, called by his men on the spot. And-well. that ngwsplper-stofy doesn't tell half the real truth." The picture he then filled in as briefly as possible had Rlttenherg itarinl- "Looks as i! they've got the old boy properly this time," he said. “I wonder what Caryl will say to that. She had great hopes, after 1 mid Iier last night about our little chat with this precious rela- tive of hers-J’ He stopped, and again strangely at O'Hara. "But-what am I talking about?" he laughed drily. "You ought to know better than I about “lint Caryl says. You've already told her, of course.” “Told her?" O'Hara stared In turn. "How could I possibly have done. that? I haven‘t seen Caryl since I left her \vith you last night, Rittenherg. and lllen I never had a word with her alone." "Maybe. But you've seen her this morning. surely?" the other suggested. “She left tiere about Len o'clock to look in on you at your club. Wouldn't say why. Wouldn't have me go with her, either, as I wanted to do. You must have missed her then?" "Missed her?" O'Hara question- ed sharply. “How could I do that when I've been there since seven this morning till hali-an-hour ago. There's something queer about iliis, Rittenberg." looked "I'M GOING AWAY——-" Rittenbcrg. puzzled by 0'Hura's suddenly alarmed manner, laugh- ed. "I don't see why there nccd he anything queer about it." he said. "i! Caryl hasn't looked in on you at your club, the only explana- tion 1s that she changed her mind. It's characteristic with women." rwhen I spoke about queerness. that wasn't in my ‘mind!’ O'Hara frowned. "What struck me as queer was that she should look me up at my club at all. I can think of no reason why the should. I'm sure. She had all the latest inlormaton about Andrew Fayne from you. There was noihng l eould tell her, so far as she knew. I've not been in her confidence at all since we came to London. in fact. she's more 0r less cold- rhouldered me." . “I don't know about that . .." Rlttenberg shrugged. "And more than I know why she intended see- ing you this morning. If she hasn't been to your club-—" “She may possibly have gone alter I'd gone." O'Hara suggested. ~ "We'll soon find out." He crossed to a phone, dialled and was through to his club, spoke for a moment or two with the hall-porter. then hung it up and turned to Rittenberg. "She hasn't been to the club yet." he said. "But-within a few minutes of my leaving there for here-a special messenger left a letter there for me. Tile hall- borfter says the handwriting on the envelope ts that of a woman. I've asked him to have a page bring It in me here. right away. You don't mind?" “Sure I don't!" Ritienberg laugh- ed. "However, probably Caryl herself will turn up here for lunch before her letter-if it is hers - comea along. After all -" he look- ed knowingly at O'Hara, while Pouring out cocktails, “—that let- ler might be from Virginia. 'Il".c lady has a soft spot for you, every- one can see for themselves." O'Hara felt embarrassed. while _fell.lsing that Rittenherg might be perfectly right about the letter. All; the same, he lit worried. I-Ic could not overcome that growing sense of foreboding which had been depressing him ever since. in those early morning hours, he liad come on the ilre ln Drake's Mews. The drink which he accepted from Rittenberg failed to stim- ulate him. or drive the depression "ll?- There might be some per- fectly natural explanation of (Meryl's expressed intention of call- 102 to see him at his club; but lie could not imagine what it ‘P014 be.
