A -RACE WITH -
A RACE WITH By HEADON HILL, Author of "Guilty Gold," "The Queen of Night," "By a Hair's Breadth," "The Peril of the Prince," & &e. SYNOPSIS OF PREVIOUS CHAPTERS. Leopold Tannadyce is a money-lender and financial shark, who holds heavy mortgages on the estate of Sir Charles Roylance, which he is about to foreclose, for he covets Roy- lance Abbey, hoping to acquire social status by becoming its owner. Roylance has a horse. Starlight, with which he hopes to win the Century Stakes, and, by means of long price betting, gain sufficient money to Pay off the mortgages. TanDudyce has a jackal in a broken-down peer, named Hooligan, whom he has ruined, and whom he now uses, in connection with a betting agency, to tip Starlight, and thus reduce the odds preventing the coup Roylance seeks to bring off. The betting agency, "Parker's Lightning Finals," ifi run by a ruined gentleman named Beau- champ, assisted by his daughter, Xance, who discovers Tannadyce's designs and seeks to save Roylance, who, in better days, was her sweetheart. Hooligan is suspected of the murder of a woman found dead on Epsom Downs. She is the sister of a "bookie" named Tidmarsh, was once a music-hall star, and was inveigled into a sham marriage by Hooligan. Tidmarsh. who is unaware of the identity of his sister's betrayer and mur- derer, has sworn to hunt him to the death. Nance has, unfortunately, attracted the un- pleasant attentions of both Hooligan and Tannadyce. CHAPTER XXL-Continued.

It came from far down, but. listening intently, he heard it repeated-nearer this time. There was no doubt it-some one was stealthily ascending the stairs. Quickly and quietly rising from the table, he opened The door of the cupboard into which Nance had been thrust by Hooligan, saw that it would suit his purpose, and, after turning out the gas in the office, shut himself in the little chamber. The door of the outer room was closed, but not locked, and on entering he had taken the precaution to pocket the key. He stood very still, and presently heard the office door tried softly and then pushed open. These sounds were followed by a deep sigh and by the unctuous tones of a man's voice saying: "Well, well! But this is indeed fortunate. I hardly dared hope to find the place open and deserted." Then suddenly a match flared up, and Croal, glueing his eye to a knothole in the cupboard door, nearly broke into laughter at what he saw. A person dressed in clergyman's garb was lighting the gas, and all the time kept talking to himself in jerky little sentences that gave mm away completely. "They must have some record of my address here," the reverend gentleman mumbled, seating himself at the table. "There will be all sorts of—er—publicity after this occur- rence, and I must destroy all traces, as luck has so favoured me." lie searched about for a while with tremu- lous fingers, but without finding what he sought; and suddenly his soliloquies flew off at a tangent on his lighting on some tips of a minor race meeting which Mr. Beauchamp had dictated to Nance that morning just be- fore t-he catastrophe that had overtaken him. "Oh, dear me; but this is—er—most fortu- nate. I'll make a note of this. What won- derful sources of information those people must nave. and how sad—er—very sad, that the gifted proprietor should have been struct down. That powerful young man who atten- ded to me when I called to subscribe couldn't have been in the office at the time." Mr. Croal pricked up his ears at this. It was the first he had heard of any one being engaged in the business of "Parker's Light- ning Finals" besides the blind man and his daughter. And another thing was beginning to dawn on him-that somewhere he had re- cently seen this anxious cleric in connection with the case he was on. The hole through which he was peering did not admit of a very close scrutiny, and he decided that more might be gained by revealing himself than by remaining in concealment. Mr. Quintree's face when the inspector opened the cupboard door and stepped out into the room would have been a rich prize to an artist desirous of a model of human terror He was too frightened to move. He sat per- fectly still, with his jaw dropped and wide- open staring eyes. Seeing him now full face, Croal knew him directly as the man who had crossed the stile with an elderly lady into the land where he had been waiting for Sir Charles Roylance two Sundays ago. "No need to be alarmed, sir," said the detec- tive pleasantly. "1 am a police-officer, but I haven't &ot anything against you that I know of. How are things down at Barfield-on- Thames?" "Oh dear, oh dear; but the fellow recog- nises me!" ejaculated Mr. Quintree piteously, and far from re-assured by Croal's soothing manner. "1-1 saw something in the evening paYers abput the--er-lamentable incident here, and as I was passing, quite by chance, I thought I would just look up and view the scene," he tried to explain. The inspector would have good-naturedly ignored the lie if he could, but it was neces- sary to pin the visitor down as a subscriber to "Parkers" in order to question him as to I the "powerful young man" who had received his subscription; so he affected sternness. "Come, sir; that's a little too thin on the top of the conversation you've been holding with yourself for the last five minutes," he said severely. "If you chose to subscribe for Turf advice it's no business of mine, and I shan't speak about it. but I'm here to learn what I can about these people. After reading the old gentleman's name in the papers you are, of course, aware that I wasn't so far out about that young lady at Bariield. Sir Charles Roylance's indignation was rather misplaced, eh?" Now Mr. Quintree had no great liking for the young baronet, who, with an honest man's instinct for a humbug, treated him with levity, and chaffed the anti-gambling discourses which he served up piping hot to suit his lWt parishioner, Lady Alice. So he assented to Croal's assertion, though he knew very well that Sir Charles, that Sunday at any rate, had no suspicion of Nance. "My young friend Eoylance is-er-not all that could be wished." he mouthed out pompously. "And as for the-ar--Y()iing person whom he foisted on to his excellent aunt, we were sadly undeceived in her last Sunday. It tra-uspired that she was on terms of intimacy with an-er-most deplorable character—Mr. Tannadyce, the moneylender, who holds the mortgages on the Eoylance estates." "Lord, what a tangle!" Croal muttered under his breath. It was no news to him that Nance was acquainted with Tannadyce, for he had seen them enter the Eaazle Dazzle Club together and afterwards drive away in the private cab; but he had been ignorant* of Tannadyce's interest in. Sir Charles' affairs. This sleek, well-fed visitor, plucking up heart -of grace in the hope of obscuring his own lawmes-- jtteacnBohi!? Aomeoro ?.9?. wM r inspiring the detective with new ideas with. vengeance, and they were not flattering to the girl who at that moment was weeping her eyes out in her cramped little bedroom in Beaker-street. Scotland Yard do not show it when they think they have gained enlightenment, 80 Croal passed lightly to his next question. "I gathered from what you dropped just now that she did not attend to you when yoa called here first?" "Oh, dear, that unfortunate habit of think- ing aloud!" bewailed Mr. Quintree. "No, she wasn't here, or, of course, I should have felt it my duty to expose-no, I don't see how I could have done that, but I should have advised my friends in the village to be care- ful." "This chap would have been a long-firm fraud if luck hadn't made him a parson," Croal reflected "Who was in the office on that occasion?" he asked. "You said some- thing about a young man." "A coarse creature, my dear sir, was the sole tenant of this apartment when Ir- perhaps inadvisedly entered it," replied Quintree. He was a burly, red-faced fellow of ill manners, youngish in years. perhaps, bnt hardened, I fear, in every kind of depravity." The description instantly reminded the inspector of that other description furnished to him by the landlady of the Angler's Rest of the brutal scamp who had deserted poor Bessie Beckford, and he remembered that the riverside inn was in this gentleman's parish. "Had you ever seen this man before, say at Barfield-on-Thames-not recently, but about a year ago?" he asked with restrained eager- ness. "Never at Barfield or anywhere else; but then he was not the sort of person who would be likely to set foot in church," was the reply which Croal, in the absence of any reason for falsehood, rightly tx>k to be the truth. After this the inspector lent his active aid in the search for the address-book, and. having quickly discovered it on the mantel- piece, turned the leaves till it came to the Ecverend Mr. Quintree's name and place of abode in a different handwriting from those preceding, though several entries in the same clumsy caligraphv appeared subsequently. To the plaintive entreaties of Mr. Quintree to destroy the page he turned a deaf ear, pro- mising, however, to keep the book in his own possession, and not divulge that troublesome entry. "Counsel for the Crown will do that fast enough at the police-court, and afterwar"it the Old Baiiey," he told himself grimly, when the dejected figure in black had departed to catch his train at Waterloo. Croal sat long pondering over what !he had heard, and when at length he locked up the office, taking the address-book with him, he had formed the theory that Nance Bean- champ was guilty of murder—not with her own hards, but as an accessory either before or after the act, or both. "Whoever wrote that sly parson's name in the book killed Bessie Beckford. and the girl must be a friend of his, or he wouldn't be helping her run this show," the inspector muttered. "It's admitted that she was in the gorse-bushes about the time. The description don't fit Mr. Leopold Tannadyce or I'd run him in to-night, but he's in it somewhere- as chief wirepuller, I'll lay a sov." So it was that in the morning Mr. Tidmarsh had left that r-om in possession of the clue of the signet ring, and now in the evening Mr. Croal lef, with the clue of the hand- writing in the book. But before them lay respectively the tasks of discovering whose was the ring and whose was the handwriting. Which was to win-the expert or the amateur? Tin dogged sleuthhound of the law. whose one ambition was to see his prisoner confronted by a black-capped judge, or the warm-hearted, emotional bookmaker, with fingers itching for the throat of his sister's murderer? I CHAPTER XXII. What Mr Tidmarsh Heard at Nathan's Next day. during the dinner-hour at the neighbouring factory, Mr. Tidmarsh loomed largely in the public bar of his favourite how telry. This was the side of the house where he did most business—where, as he used to say in happier days, he "earned silk-lined skirts for the missus." But the way of transgressors is hard, and Mr. Tidmarsh proved the truth of the old adage by having to put up with rather a. rough time while raking in the mainstay of existence. He missed his stool in the corner of the cosy saloon bax, on which he was wont to balance his weighty person during his dealings with equally ardent but less numerous patrons in City garb. To-day the paper-hatted factory hands were "doing a bit," as they called it, at Newmarket, which sporting centre not one of them had ever seen or was likely to see. But it is given to professors of Mr. Tidmarsh's calling to annihilate time and space for such as they, and the toiling wage-earners streamed ,into the Union Jack, as keen to back their fancy as if they were debouching on to the classic heath. Tidmarsh leaned against the pewter-topped counter, ostensibly chatting to the landlord, but actually engaged in receiving the betting slips and cash handed to him without much attempt at secrecy by the customers. Long immunity from the attentions of the police had made the frequenters of the place careless, but there was a rod in pickle for them to-day. It was one of the potmen who first sounded a warning note by whispering to his employer thit "there were strangers in the gallery," at the same time furtively indicating three men in paper hats who sat on a bench just inside the swing doors. The phrase was a, prearranged signal, denoting that there were persons present who were not what they seemed. "Are you sure?" asked the landlord anxiously. "Several of the factory boys have given me the tip that that lot don't belong there," the potman replied. "Those chaps look fishy." "Come here. Bill," the proprietor whispered over the counter. "Have you done anything with thobe fellows on the bench?" "Yes, they've bet a bob each," said Tid- marsh. "Anything wrong with them?" Ikey thinks so; anyway, better be careful. Ah. by George, but it's too late." For the three suspects had suddenly risen from the bench, two to place themselves at the swing doors, while the third advanced to the principal culprit amid general cries from the customers of "Coppers," "I'm sorry for this, but it's a clear caae," said the disguised sergeant, trying to hide his elation. "We must have the names and addresses of all in the bar. You, Mr. Land- lord. will be summoned for permitting bet- ting on licensed premises, and as for you, Mr. Tidmarsh, I'm afraid I mnst^xovhte ytm to -come -to the station with jm." $Xo ^ooatinaaii^
