mutual friend, the Rev. Henry Tyson,
Rector of . North wiek-Balham,, in the
county of Berkshire. . The subjtet_ of
our conversation had been a piece' of'

• a wealthy retired tradesman, Harding

road be is approaching is hidden from
my view.
Very som my prediction chine true:
There was a turn in the road. Trees
and buildings and rising ground inter
vened and hid the figure. It did not
shost againifor a long space; when it
did it cainelmt by the railway station
I sat and thought the situation,over
and the conviction forced itself upon
me more and more strongly. that this
railway station Weald be the ultimate
destination - oPthatnurder, and that - the
only chances now was to keep a steady
watch upon its approaches. But my
eyes, especially the left eye, which I
had to keep dosed, were now so tired
that I could hardly use them. I found
it. however, by no means easy to get a
substitute.
There were only present at thiS time
the woman servants and . a boy- The
boy could not be trusted; .of contse;
and the women, one and all, proclaim
ed, as they seated themselves by turns
before the glass, that :they could only
see, • 'something, dark bobbing up and
down at the end of it." At last, it. was
suggesfedthat Martin; the vicar's facto
tum, who had been out, must he at
home by this time, and a servant being
despatched in search of him, he pres
ently appeared and took my place at
the glass, though which he could see
perfectly.
'"Ere• lives just there, sir, between
Elie', part of the road where you say
he 'disappeared - and the station," said
Martin, when he had heard all the
fitiegoing particulars; just behind the
row of poplarS yun see down yonder."
This opened. a 'new view of the mat•
ter. Martin suggested that perhaps he
had gone home, and that the right
Course might be to send there to cap
ture hint. The propriety of this,
however, I doubted.
"Keep yourattention fixed-upon the
station," 1 said, 'and let me be inform
ed of 411 that goes on there. He will
find his way there at last."
Martin kept his glass' fixed on the
little building in-silence. Everything
appeared to be at a stand-still for the
moment, -•
"An old woman carrying a basket
is making -ber.way-slowly.to—the sta
tion," said Martin; "one or tWo other
people are beginning to arrive:"
- "What sort of people ?"
"0, not our man. One is- a led,!
looks like a gentleman's - groom, come'
to fetch some parcel. The other is a
miller with a sack of. meal. There
.are signs of some stir about the place,
and I can make oat the porters Mov
ing's:bent. What time is it, sir 1"
asked the Mae suddenly.
"Twenty minutes .past four," I an
swered.-' -
"The down thin is due at 4 29,"
said Martin. "That accounts for the
bustle."
"Where does it kb to'?" Laaked.
"It's the Bristol train, sir," was the
answer.

murderer would want to go.
There's a cart driven by an old man
with a great many parcels, which the
porters are removing; and taking into
- .the - station; there's a man with a
couple of pointers coupled. The ttain's
coming; sir, I can see the smoke, and
they'er working the signals- as hard
as they can go. Here's a Carriage
driving up with a pair of white horses.
It's the Westbrook carriage.—l can

young ladies. Here's the postman
With his leather bag. Here's a woman

porter sees him, and beckons him to

than ever, the porter drags him into
the station, and the door is shut."

fo'r the moment puzzled how tt? act.
Watching the station was, for the!
present, useless Ther6 world not be

night. , The only chance under these
.circumstances seemed m be the chance
of finding the man at his own house
Thither I determined to go, thinking
that even . if he weremot the - re I might

been directed, and one of which was
