On the next day he took the train with his scheme fully matured. He would make a clean breast of the matter to Steel, offering to uake good if the bank would abstain from prose cuting hitm. And he would take his thirty thousand and get out of it all, with his wife, to Florida. But would Steel and the president Consent? They were hard men, and he would have to play his cards wari ly. lie pondered over the perplexing situation in the train, and he had not quite decided when he reached the bank. Hie noted an atmnosphere of sub dhued excitement as he went to put on his olilce coat. Men were whispering alnd looking furtively toward him. But Harold had shut hirmself off from the friendship of Inen, as every mnan nust when he devotes himuself to the violation of ioral laws, and nobody eane forward to speak to him. lie was just entering the cage when I he tmurlanger's boy camee up.

For just an instanlt lie hesitated, ilnd then, squaring his shoulders, he entered the president's rootm. "1 know why you have sent for me, eIr. Sawyer," he began. The president, who was at his desk alone, looked up at him. ie bore races of a severe struggle. "A tern ile thing!" he said. "A terrible thing, ,Ir. Dlenton !" "A counnanplace of our business," neered 1 htrold. The piresidett Lliunipel his flat upon the tallel. "No, sI." le said. "A very infreqiueiit thing. And to think It shull h:av- !cen Steel!
