I "There." he announced with an easy gesture. Lanyard rose and stood over the desk, investigating the contents of the dispatch-box. Tte collection of magni- floent stones seemed to tally accurate- ly with his mental memoranda of the discreption furnished by Eve de Mon- talais. "This seejns to be right," he saiid quietly, and closed the box. The au- tomatic lock snapped fast. "Now what do ywi »ay, brother dearr "Your debt to me i6 ftilly discharg- ed, Liane.
