X Nmlln's clutch tightened. "I
never could hnvc dreamed of such
denrness,"
Jnrremnn looked theughtfiti.
"My child, n father who has n little
money it generally expected te see that
his daughter l" eomfertnble."
"Oh, I'm net talking about the things
you've given me ! It was Insanely gen' gen'
treus of you te make ur these wedding
presents, for, of course, I can never use
I all thnt money but I'm net thinking
of that. Won't you won't you miss
me n little bit sometimes?"
"1 shall miss you very much,' in
deed." said Jarreman. He essayed a
touch of bentlmentaiity. "It bait been
Mrange, hasn't It, Nadla you and I
meeting as perfect btrangers and slip
ping Inte our proper relationship after
all thesu years?"
"If you had been just a father, we
shouldn't have liked each ether," eald
the glri softly. "I don't like you out
of a sense of duty, you knew. You're
much mere of the brother than of the
item parent. You're net going te
drop me after I'm married are yqu?"
Jarreman tried te give a ready as
uraiicc, but the lightly spoken words
had sturtlcil him,
"We haven't had a moment alone to
gether for weeks," Nadlu continued,
"and I don't expect you'll m'e me again
properly until it's time te start for the
chureh I've get a million things te
see te. Se I want te tell you new "
She bent her face te him until her
soft hair brushed his eyelids.
"What, my dear?"
Nadla and Wilfred's Wedding
"That I enjejed being with you
every minute of it. It' nice te think
thnt everything I possess almost will
remind me of you. Yeu have a gift for
giving, father. You've heaped things
upon me se lavishly that if you had
been different In yourself I should have
become quite suspicious of you."
"Suspicions?"
"Haven't you noticed that some peo
ple don't like you and fed compunc
tion!, about it and give you presents te
ease their conscience? Wei!, it might
se easily have been like that with you
and me, but 1 knew at once it wasn't.
I knew it was real love."
JarrenuVn sat rigid.

lips touched ills cheek lightly und she
was gene.
I.eve and hate !
Jarreinan's breath came through
clenched teeth. He bent off his memo
ries, nrmed himself with his pride, and
went out for a walk.

Jarremnn's next imprcsiien was of
red carpet tinder an awning, a gaping
crowd, a group of slender girls nwnUIng
them ln the perch the bridesmaid?, nil
of Lady Deucester's cheesing. They
fell Inte place behind the bride, nnd
Jarreman led Nadla up the aisle- te
where Strannck waited. '
Around them wbh the full sound of
organ music and the rich scent of flow
ers, The service began. Jnrremnn fol
lowed it closely, .ind plnyed bis part
with precision ; but half his mind was
busy with n thousand trifles. The
church wna full; he had net realized
thnt the Deucesters were making such
a big nffalr. Perhaps they wished te
cloak the fact that lie had enl,v asled
one guest Theed. 'He smothered a
smile, remembering TheedV unctuous
deference of n few days age. Tliecd
would be cent for again, tomorrow
probably, and told te proceed ngalnst
" te love, cherish and te. obey
" premised Nadle's clear voice.
Jarreman moved Jerkily.
He found himself remembering his
own wedding day. Clnudinc's eves,
lazy, half mocking. He wrenched his
thoughts away, and wondered whether
his own daughter were married, whether
she, tee, had dropped her eyes as the
geld ring slipped into its place en her
finger.
It was ever. He was standing next
te Lady Deuccster in thn veqrrv hr
was signing his name he" was moving
back again into the church he was ln
the perch. Then enmc a blur of the
swut movement of a car. the laughter,
and the Vivid coloring of the rprcntlnn
at the I'arnnssiiR, then the departure
or me DHtie anil bridegroom, the (lis
penal of the truestR.
It wan n few minutes before 4 o'clock
wnen .Jnrremnn was ushered into Se
grove's eflice.
His Daughter a Factory Girl
As he entered the Inner room, Jar Jar
eoman had the Impression that the do de
tectlye's manner wns deliberately soft
ening toward him. Hpgrevp hnd the
vague air or n specialist who is about
te ten a man thnt he is suirering from
a fatal disease.
"I'm sorry you couldn't come te see
mc earner, air. Jarreman," he began,
and offered Jarreman a chair and a
cigarette. "As I told you. I have news
in tee utmost importance, aim I must
warn you te prepare yourself for what
may be n rather bad shock."
Jarreman knew well enough what
was coming, but his histrionic powers,
developed te second nature by the events
of the lest few months, were net likely
10 desert mm.
"My fellows have found Miss Cam
den," sold Segreve. "I will net new
give you the details, or thev ere imma
terial. Yeu may take it from me thet
there is absolutely no doubt of her Iden
tity." Segreve hesitated a moment,
und then:
. "Miss Camden is the a-lrl whom you
believe te be your daughter. Yeu have
been decelreil."
"Impossible!" The exclamation was
snot out with convincing realism.
"It is net impossible," said Segreve
quietly. "It is. en the contrary, Im
possible That I should be mistaken. The
proet is nuseliitc and is ready for you
te read as seen as you like. And I
have something else te report. I huve
found the lady who really Is your
daughter, Penelope .Tni-reman.-"
Jarreman mopped his brew with his
iiandKcrcmcr.
"I I don't think I quite understand
you," he said nervously.
Segreve explained again. Jarreman
sustained the pose of one who is dnzed
by utterly unexpected news for several
mlnute.4.
"This ends my work as far ns Miss
1 amiten is concerned, said Segreve.
"I have presented you with the fnctn.
It lg for you te decide I should ad
vise, with the assistance of a laywer
what course you will pursue."
"Ys, yes," said Jarreman, stilt
striving te nppcnr dazed. "I must
consider what must be done. I must
take advice. I must take advice." He
waited il moment, nnd ndded :
"Yeu say you have also found my
real daughter?"
"I traced her seme weeks age," re
plied Segreve. "but I wished te make
ifMirnnre doubly sure before I reported
the matter. I have every item of her
history. That also is among the re
ports I have here." He handed Jnr Jnr
eomnn a sheaf of papers.
The Detective Sympathizes
Jarreman took them. His band was
shaking with excitement but he saw
sympathy in the detective's eye.
"After your trinl," went en Segreve.
"she was, as I have no doubt you are
aware, abandoned by her mother. She
was taken chnrge of by the Lady Mar
garet Heme for the Daughters of Con Cen
vlcts.. She was there trained en the
regular lines of the establishment with
a view te entering domestic service. At
the nge of sixteen two years before the
normal time for discharge she broke
away.
"It was difficult te trace her move
ments from that point, but eventually
my fellows succeeded. She obtained em
ployment In an East Knd factory. She
has changed her employment four times,
but otherwise seems te have led the life
of a normal factory girl. Prem nil ac
counts she is a respectable factory
girl."
"A respectable factory girl !" Jarro Jarre
man felt en inexplicable dl-unny. He
tried te banish it. Why should his
daughter net he n respectable factory
girl? Had contact with the Douces Deuces
ters transformed him Inte a social
snob?
' "Here Is her address," concluded Se
grove. He handed Iitm n slip of paper
and then busied himself tactfully with
some documents rn his tnhle.
Jarreman stared at the address
Huckster' Hew, Waterloo read. Known
as "Nell." He supposed he had better
go there. He get te his feet.
"Mustn't take up your time," lie
muttered.
Segreve looked ut him somewhat anx
iously. "You've had a shock," he said, "and
I'm afraid you feel the effects. Won't
you rest a bit? I'm going out "
Jarreman shook his head. He felt a
great desire for movement. Presently
lie was out in the street, walking te-,
ward the trees of the Kmbankmeiit Har
dens. He went into them and siit upon
a bench .
Curiously enough, he did feel as If
he had had 11 shock, and, of course, he
hadn't. The interview had been ex
acth what he had expected, lie had
acted his part and led the detective
into net lug his. Everything had been
according te plan except i-
"Known as Nell."
Hut why shouldn't she be a factory
girl? There was nothing morally mi -
Ipnu in lielui! 11 factory ali'l. Possibly
she. had acquired some sort of skilled 1
knowledge. Perhaps slic had cummer-
lal ambitions, lie ceiini set ner up 111
