Robbery story killed. Black type across page-head last edition,
"Treasure-train safe!" McGRATH. "Show it to Miss Euston," Craig added, simply, gathering up his wired wireless set, just as the crew from the train behind us ran up. "She may like to know that she has saved her father from himself through misunderstanding her lover." I thought Maude Euston would faint as she clutched the message. Lane caught her as she reeled backward. "Rodman--can you--forgive me?" she murmured, simply, yielding to him and looking up into his face. II THE TRUTH DETECTOR "You haven't heard--no one outside has heard--of the strange illness and the robbery of my employer, Mr. Mansfield--'Diamond Jack' Mansfield, you know." Our visitor was a slight, very pretty, but extremely nervous girl, who had given us a card bearing the name Miss Helen Grey. |
