Kirby mid Hese wnlked back te the courthouse. They had emitted to.ar te.ar i unge with the license clerk te forward u cepj of I lie marriage certincatc wnen it was iileil. The rough rider left the required fee with the clerk nnd n bank note te keep his memory jogged up, "Soen s Mrs. ltaukin comes home, will jeu cull her up find remind her about loekin' for the certificate?" he asked. "Sure I will. I've get te have it. iinjhew, for the records. And sav, wliut's the- name of that fresh guy who clime in here and cut the page from the register? I'm going after him right, believe you mc." CHAPTER XXV A Conference of Three Kirby heard his name being' paged as he entered his hotel. "Wanted nt the telephone, sir," the bell-hop told him. He stepped Inte a boejh'und the voice of Rese came excited and tremulous. It was less than ten minutes since he had left her at the deer of her bearding beuse. "Something's happened, Klrby. Can .you come here right awny?" she beg cd. Then, unable te keep back any longer the cry of her heart, she broke out with her tidings. "Esther's gene." "Gene where?" he asked. "I don't knew. She left a letter for me. If you'll come te the heubc Or shall I meet you downtown?" I'll i-nnin De tlinrn In. five mln- UtCS-" , ,. He mere than kept his word. Catch ing a car en the run at the nearest cor ner, he dropped from it as it crossed Broadway and walked te Cherokee. Rese opened the house deer when he rnng the bell nnd drew him Inte the parlor. With n catch of the breath bhc blurted out again the news. "She wns cene when I Cot home. I found this letter." Her eyes sought his for comfort. He read what Esther had written. I can't stand It any longer, denr est. I'm going away where I won't disgrace jeu. Don't Ieek ler me. I'll be taken enre of till afterward. And. eh. Rese, don't hate me. dar ling. Even if I nm wicked; love me. And try some time te forgive your little sister. " ESTHER. . "Did anjbedy see her go?" Lane QSrtCll "T .inn't knew. I haven't talked with anjbedy, but the lnndhuly. She hasn't seen J'.sthcr tins auernoen, sue sum i .n.iti't let en I was worried." "What docs she mean that she'll be taken care of till afterward.' WDeli take care of her?" f .inn't ltnnw." "Have you any idea where she would be likely te go wnetner mere is any friend who might hnve offered her a' temporary homer' "Ne." Rese considered. "She wouldn't go te any old friend. Yeu see she's awf'ly sensitive. And she'd have te explain. Besides, I'd find out she was there." "That's true." "I ought never te have left her last spring. I should luive found work here und net gene Kullumpln' ull ever the country." Her chin trembled. Shewns en the verge of tears. "Nonsense, Yen can't blame your self. We each have te live our own life. Hew could jeu tell what was cemin'? Betciin we find her right away. Mebbe she let out semethin'' te Cele. She doesn't leek te me like a girl who could play out u stiff hand alone." "She isn't. She's dependent always has leaned en seme one." Rese hnd re gained control of herself quickly. She steed straight nnd lissem, mistress of tier emotions, but her clear ehl-eks were colorless.
