They had not Long to wait for Wayne s arrival. He came in a rattle trap taxi and Pritchard was with him. Larry noticed that both men glanced curiously about the House As tiny were ushered in. He and tyra came Forward to Greet then. introduced Pritchard. To repeat what i said on the Tele started Larry. Mrs. Wycoff has decided that the cards Are too definitely stacked against her. We both be Lieve you Are not i am not. I give you my lie said caustically. At Liny rate she is prepared to Swayne glanced at tyra. You have read the contract mrs. Yes. I just finished it As you came it satisfies As a it is the thing behind it which i that is All past though and i m that Aragon will do a great Deal for perhaps. Suppose we get this Over Larry compared the two contracts to make certain that they were exact duplicates. Swayne smiled his approval. You be got a Clever husband mrs. Wycoff. I d like to have him with me she paid no attention to his re Mark. Larry spoke with frigid Courtesy you have the corporation Seal with you. I very he handed the pen to tyra. Sign right on that line her hand did not tremble. She wrote a Large Clear hand and her name was Sib scribed to both contracts. Larry handed them and the pen to Swayne. He attached his signature and the Seal of the corporation. Then he handed one contract to tyra and placed the other in his coat pocket. His Man Ner had undergone a change. He was Friendly and Jovial. It was that he knew lie had won a great Victory and was accordingly elated. I won t try to make a secret of How Happy i feel about this. Mrs. Wyco he started but she interrupted. Am not Happy Over it. Or Swayne. If there is any Way to break the con tract. I shall do i do believe you will find a Way out i have been very perhaps not. I cannot be a hypo Crite though we re not asking you to. I want you to understand however that for five i years Aragon appreciates the fact that its interests and yours Are identical.

Swayne that will be All four Rose and looked Buncom. Portably at one another. I suppose there s no use offering to shake hands is questioned Swayne. She answered. I am not Happy Over the methods you have use he moved toward the door. Even tyra s bleakness could not chill is enthusiasm. He bade them a cordial Farewell and invited tyra to extend her vacation for As Long As she desired. We re not going to drive you As we have been he explained. You see we were afraid that we Ware going to lose you and it was up to us to got the most out of you in a limited time now we prefer to make haste More slowly. If you re enjoying your self Here take n. Few extra weeks they la really do you Larry and tyra moved to the door and watched Swayne. And walk off Down the tree shaded Street. He is a ver funny she observed softly. He is not decent. He would do anything to gain what he desire and yet one cannot help but like him a Little Larry smiled Down at her. I feel rather the same Way about him tyra he s a Crook but a fearless one. A darn Good he shrugged and turned away. I be been a Fine Protection to you Haven t i did this Larry. Perhaps you can not understand that i feel Happy it is ended. I do not like worry in is not even ver great amount of Money i wonder what. Aikman will of or. Aikman he will say that he thinks we have done just right. 1 think he knew from the ver first that we would have to accept their terms and now he can do slow and careful work to see How the contract can what you Call Larry Shook his head. I hate to have i Given up without n i of men always you think a fight is so important. What Good is it to fight and then lose Why do you think or. Swayne said you were bitterly i was doing what he not at All Larry. You Are wrong. He thought you were Clever because you did not do any foolish because you could see that you were beaten. It takes a ver Fine strategist to know that. I am proud of you he gazed at her intently. You re n darned Good sport to say make i me feel very Small and Humble when Regina donkeys like Winnipeg were visible beneath the _ of the coat and on one of the Cerulean straps tyra caught a glimpse of his official badge. He seemed More like n shopkeeper than a very competent and fearless Law enforcement officer. He had Lolly Gray eyes and a dimple which rivalled Tyras yet there were men who had seen those Gray eyes when they were not sparkling with laughter. Larry spoke. You came to see daa. I Reckin no of Sam Hardwick s face serious. I m right sorry to say i did what do you mean the sheriff fidgeted uneasily. He crossed his legs and then uncrossed them. He regarded the Dusty toe of one Boot intently and then spoke we thou looking up. I be come up Here on u dog gone Nasty Mission Larry. I pretty Rotten about tyra was staring wide eyed. Larry asked a Sharp question. It off the Taa ohs 1 fort of of Liat it meant. I Ain t told we about it brought it up Hie like .1 what s the she asked he refused to look at her. Her eyes flashed to her Hub univ drawn face. His head was thrown Bact and his eyes were blazing. Goot lord. Sheriff say listen said ail you it Chiri Kius and a whole lot More. I Kaov there Ain t nothing to it. But what Caj i r do if a Man swears out a War rant questioned tyra. I Don t see answered lorry. I she exclaimed. It. Mus.

If course there Ain t going to be leg myself handle things myself until i was sure. His voice trailed off hopelessly. Sure of confound it Larry if you must got a warrant for your wife s a sudden tense silence fell Over the room. You be got gasped Tara. Downright ashamed mrs. By coff. But that s the Way things Are.

Haven de with Winnipeg but Jimmie Junior says that there Are too Many cars Here or a Mie also corrected the belief that the Cowbell ringing is confined to the saw. Boston and a loud trumpet. _ you take it that you Are thinking of again. That is foolish Larry. We i attention. A sudden wild Hope surged Money in his heart and he took an impulsive should forget new Art and what i would have paid. We must remember Only Aragon and that i work for them for the next five years. Arid we have other things to think of she looked away. Our return to los Angeles. Oui selves. Our divorce you Well i mean about something in her attitude invited his step Forward. And just at that instant the door Bell rang. It jangled on Larry s nerves and broke the magic spell which sur rounded him. He turned away abruptly and moved toward the front door. Tyra. Her deep Violet eyes shaded with keen disappointment followed him. Larry opened the door. A round faced Jolly looking Man stood there twirling a Felt hat in his Pudgy hands Larry broke into a smile of Welcome. Sam to greeted. Walk right in. He turned to tyra. You be met sheriff Hardwick Haven t you she captivated the portly sheriff with one her most provocative smiles. I have met i could never she put a tiny warm hand j in his and gave a firm pressure.
