There was a MtUe dragging silence before Jervis said in a casual tone. "Only the old bridge above the fall." Ferdinand jerked round in his wicker chair.

"No really! And It fell?" "What dramatic mind you've got, P. The Umbers were rotten with the spray." "Rotten were they--and with the spray?" Jervis nodded. "TThe bridge fell. And was there anyone on it when it fell?" Jervis got up and stood half turned away, looking down towards the ravine. "Nan had a narrow escape," he said.

"She'll tell you about it if you want to know." Ferdinand certainly wanted to nothing that I can prove--there's inly the feeling, the frightfully strong feeling." Ferdinand noddea. "As you say. you've 'got a hunch' Well, I take a good deal of stock hunches myself. You tell me all bout this bridge Business." Nan told him about waking up the night and looking out of her window and seeing Robert Leonard by a flash of lightning. "And what does Jervis say to "He says I couldn't possibly have recognized him all tha; way "Well, there's something in that." "I saw him," insisted Nan.

"Right. Now what about the bridge?" "Jervis took me down to see the fall, and when we came to the bridge Bran wouldn't cress it-- he wouldn't go onto it at all. He knew." Ferdinand nodded. "I've seen an elephant do that in Burma--it just stood there and trumpeted. Go on." "Jervis was angry with him.

He tried to drag him on to the bridge stopped abruptly. Ferdinand laughed a little. "Keep right on," he said. "Well, the bridge went --and I'd lave gone too, only Jervis grabbed Told of me and pulled me lip." His bright brown eves mocked her a little. "I never did care for art expur- edition--It puts too much strain on the imagination." "That's ali," said Nan hastily.

"Nonsense! All? And how did you come to be on the bridge? 3ran wouldn't cross, and you knew was something wrong, and so you went onto the bridge your- just to see what would happen." had the satisfaction of her checks burn. "Well--that Is true, isn't it?" he said. Nan jumped up. "You'd better go down and look at the bridge." "If Td get hat on. I'd take it off to you, Mrs.

Francis." "Oh, I imagine Lucre's something." "No, there Isn't." Then, as Jcrvis looked over his shoulder with a sardonic gleam in his eye, she colored and said stumblinsly, "I ran on to th2 bridge. It cracked, and then it fell. Jervis pulled me up." "My eyes!" said, Ferdinand. "Can't someone do better than that? Haven't you got a few extra syllables about you, Mrs. Jervis? I feel as if I could do with them if you ha.ve." "Bran wouldn't cross it," said Nan only Just above her brea.th.

'I knew there was something wrong when Bran wouldn't cross it." "I'm an inquisitive man," said Ferdinand, "and I'm feeling the strain of this conversation pretty badly. If someone doesn't tell rue what happened soon, I'm going to be a first-aid case." Jervis had been listening in a careless attitude, one knee On the balustrade. His sudden smile came and went again. It gave his facs an extraordinary charm. He looted at Ferdinand with affection.

"Very nicely put, F. F. I'm afraid I only deal in dry facts--that's why I'm not competing. Nan will turn on some imagination for you." Nan's checks burned with a sudden scarlet. Everything in nor was reacting violently from the moment when she had stood with the door between herself and Jcrvis and had not had a word to say.

That was last night; but it might have happened in another world. She had felt drained and dumb, a sort of ghost in the dark. She did not feel in the least like that now. She wanted to convince Ferdinand, to get him on her side. She felt wann, and alive, and sure.

She leaned towards him wilh her elbow on the arm of the chair. "I'll tell you what happened." "That's better," said F. F. Jervis got up and strolled away. "When the thrills are over you can wander down to the ravine and view the remains," he said.

He went down the steps and on down the zrassy slope. "Now, Mrs. Jcrvis." said Ferdinand. "Jervis doesn't "believe anything." "Well wouldn't. Suppose you try me--I'm good at believing." "There's so little to tell.
