The plan didn't seem to work
Three minutes later he was aaln

John Mtt.-hi 11 knew how to drive
a bursi.n Irnlee.1. he knew how
to turn the vote in a dlre tors'
meeting The color in his cheeks
Indicated an excellent digestion and
the man loked In pplcndld health.
His tallorinc (he wore a suit of
dark pray) was the sort to be ex-
pected of a mnn of taste who or-
dered the best ciisualU and thought
no more of It
Stuffed away in a iockPt of that
suit was the letter Mnrtraret Ror-
fH had written It was a brief
note. It read
"Dvar John 1 can not Rive you
an unswer (mediately There are
co many things to be consider tl.
I'lThapa if 'you could come here
so that we can talk matters over
and come to u clear understanding

want to do what Is right. That is
uilf that. I can ny. Very sincdrely.

Mitchell had Mnt two tele(iams
on receipt of that letter He was
waitinp now for Margaret HoKers' i
arrival
The tilephone buzzcil insistent- I

'Hello- yes'" the man unswercd
Then his voice changed entitely
"Oh -you've come? I'll be down
immediately."
He looked at his watch as he
stepped out of the room noting
hta visitor wa.s jubt five minutes
late. Mitchell was frowning a few
secomls later when he emerged
from the elevator Into the hotel
lobby He also wa.s making a tre-
mendous effort not to appear solf-
consclous Slowly he surveyed the big room.
His frown deepened. He wna turn-
ing when a low voice spoke at hts
elbow. i
"You're John Mitchell aren't
ou'"
' Yes My name's Mitchell "
Tile pair stnrcd at each othet
Mitchell's eyes were stony unbe-

gaze unflinchingly.
