For the town afternoon costume of

leave that, dearest. Do you want
me to go to Macedonia?”
Shirley smiled without mirth.
She had already noticed the ten-
dency of her husband to flinch
from a direct question about his
own conduct She was famiHar,
too, with his trick of attempting to
disarm criticism by blaming him-
self. Nevertheless, she did not
want him to go to Macedonia. Alan
should have had more sense than
to offer him a job like that
“I don’t see how you can,” fihe
said impatiently. “We made a
good start at Southampton and if
we are not going to follow it up—
“That’s just exactly what I feel
about it,” said Roger fervently.
“Apart from the fact that I don’t #
believe that I should be able to
pull it off when I get there—as
you say, it would spoil everything
—my going away just now.”
“I suppose 1 should come with
you if you were to go?”
“Oh, no. He made that quite
clear. It’s a hopeless country for
an American woman.”
“Well, that would complicate
matters still further. I can’t think
why Alan should have suggested
it. If you would rather not tell
him you can’t do it, I’ll tell him
for you!”
‘It’s lovely of you to offer,” he
answered. “But, my dear little
girl, it would be absolutely fatal.
If I have not literally betrayed a
client’s confidence, I have discuss-
ed part of his affairs with you. It
would ruin me.”
“What nonsense! Alan wouldn’t
mind, when it’s only me.”
Kelton was unexpectedly agi-
tated.
“He may be a very old friend
of yours, but I can’t take liberties
with him on that account,” he
where are you going to end?”
"1 don’t know where you’re go-
ing to end,” said Shirley coldly.
“But you’ve begun by suggesting
that you’ve got professional
knowledge of something against
Alan.”
“Nothing of the kind!
well, I shall have to give .
substance of it.” He waited for
her assurance but she gave none.
“Some weeks before we were mar-
ried—shortly after his return—
Brennaway came to my office. My
father used to act for his father
and I believe the firm has done a
little business for him.

to go to Macedonia.”
“Whatever for?”
“In connection with a mining
scheme he is interested in. As a
matter, of fact my own father was
interested in it too. It would mean
my being out there at least six
months—it’s a dog's hole of a
country. Besides—we were going
to get married, so naturally I
wasn’t keen.”
There was a note. of petulance
in his voice that mystified her.
“But he could easily have found
another lawyer. Why didn’t you
just thank him and remind him
about me?”
For a moment he did not answer.
“It wasn’t quite as simple as
you seem to imagine,” he said
defensively. “To begin with, Bren-
naway believes a good deal in that
mine and I don’t.”
“He knows all about mines.”
“The mine may be all right but

“Why didn’t you tell me about ]

“Oh, I don’t know—one doean t

“It affects our plans. If you
have got to be away for six
months, why have we come here.
What’s the use of our making
