The street 1,1 which he found himself was a small one, and badly lighted; and for a me - Men!. he stOod still looking about him, and rather uneartain c1 his immediate whereabouts. Presently two nen, walking slowly, passed him; and. making after them, he inquired bis way to Pentonville !load. "Bight you are, gu-v-nor, we're just gang there," said one of the two. - "I'll show you." Gordon thanked him, and turned along wits him. -They had not gone far when Gordon suddenly hesitated. Flit> mind was busy •engagetl in reviewing the events of the past few hours. and in speculating upon what he should say to Mr. Gaunt, but the long time in Rothvilie had -trained his senses to a high .pitch of :acuteness. and his quick observance] wa.s always at work even when his brain- was engaged in other ' pursuits. 11. had suddenly snuck him that. some signal had passed between the Iwo men at his side, and that there ,was an air of tension and watchfulness in their •-walk and plan- ner which was peculiar and • rather mi- w:countable. . He edged a littl 2, towards the side of tht pavement -away from -them, and in- stinctively buttoned up:. his coa-t. • The man nearest to him noticed the movement and quickly nudged his Caen- -peini.on. who -stepped to the other side .o' Gordon. ., Goinon leaked.. round .him. He had 1e; the men teed him on a lifile way without faking much heel of the read they went, and he saw that they -were now -in an almost deserted :part o1 the, town; one of the narrow, badly -lighted crescents which: lead Off item the Pen- lonville Even while he looked and hesitated he. heard a -little click to one side of -him. He guessed she • meaning of the sound ir,stantly.. One of the man had ta_ . lien off his belt.

"But, really, 1 don't see why • the brutes should go, Sterrett," Gordon said' again, after a second or two. Sterrett ,hesitated. ."Why do you think they went.foryou; sir?" 'he said, at. last. "The usual thing, robbery: 1 suppose." "I don't, sir. Why, If they had wanted your watch and chain, or your money, they would have had them long before I hit that chap down there. • Why, Bill Smith, who was dodging 'abcia, wait- ing to get' home with that belt of his, could have had all you'd got on you long before you'd : done punching , the other chap. But he was looking for a chance te, knock you out. They might !aloe robbed you afterwards, but that wasn't what they: were playing for." • Gordon. thought' deeply for a little. iI remembered Usher's attempt just now upon his life. after he had suc- ceeded in getting the letter which con- tained Vivienne Gaunt's address.. Ile 11 haa that letter; he knew the young gel's whereabouts, and .Usher was cog- nizantof his.. knowledge. The gambler would be aware that Gorden would not tong delay before he made use of the, address; might he net even have guessed that Gordon would go straight from the hotel to Charles Street?
