know. This idea of Mr. Clinton's seems perfectly above board to me and, if I may say so, I'm a man of considerable experience — "
"No, I haven't any proof!" I cried, cutting into that dry, judicial voice. "You'll have to take my word for it. Oh, I know I should have told you before, but — there was Julian. Don't you see?"
Dean Fuller cleared his throat. "I'm afraid I don't see. I find no reason why we should take your word on this when — by your own admission — you have chosen to — deceive us all this time about your real status with this man. Undoubtedly, you have reason to dislike him. But as you haven't told us all this before, I'm afraid it appears like a grudge — " He glanced around at the others. "Suppose I call Mr. Clinton."
"Yes, call him!" I said defiantly. And suddenly I wasn't scared any more. Of Jed. Of anything.
"I certainly shall — " And then Dean Fuller halted in mid-stride, and stared at the door through which I'd come. I turned.
ANDY PENDLETON was coming in — a torn, disheveled Andy with one eye blacked and his tie under his ear. He waved a sheaf of papers at me and grinned happily.
"I'll have to apologize, gentlemen, for this rather unorthodox entrance. But then I've been on unorthodox business the last couple of days. I've been tracking down a crook — our good friend, Mr. Jed Clinton." He put the papers down on the table triumphantly. "There's enough in here to hang him — almost. Affidavits from people he's swindled, and — proof that under another name, he has been in jail!"
I dropped weakly into the nearest chair. Around me excited voices buzzed. I could hear only Andy's, see only his happy, excited face.
"... I got suspicious at the strange way Mrs. Clinton acted when she first saw him," he was saying. "And I didn't like the look of the fellow. As you know, old Dr. Drake was almost like a father to me, and when he died, a lot of his effects came into my possession. I knew Mrs. Clinton had first come here as his protegee. So I looked through his personal files. I found a letter she'd written, four years ago. It told the whole story — at least, her part of it. I gave her a chance to tell it to me but she — " he looked at me and my heart warmed at what I read in that look— "preferred not to, for reasons of her own.
"So I simply took some time off and back-tracked on Clinton. I went back to the town where Mrs. Clinton
had first met him. Then I flew out to Chicago. I could have gone to a lot of other places, too, but I got enough. Enough, I thought, to scare him out of town and out of her life. Just now I confronted him with these facts at his hotel. There was a little — er — trouble, but I frightened him so he jumped in a car in front of the hotel and left — in a hurry. And, I am happy to say, the police are hot on his trail now . . ."
The room swam dizzily around me. Again there was the buzz of excited voices. And then someone was putting a glass to my lips and Andy was holding me and Dean Fuller was saying something about "apology . . ."
Then the telephone jangled sharply and in a moment Dean Fuller was beside me again. "I'm afraid," he said slowly, "that there is a further shock in store for you, Mrs. Clinton. That was the police. The car in which your — your husband was running away skidded on the ice. He — was dead when they found him."
"Is it awful of me to feel only relief he's gone?" I murmured to Andy as we walked home later.
"No," he said firmly. "Men like Jed Clinton bring only misery. It's better this way, Alma. Far better than to try to feel grief. But oh, my darling, if you'd only told me! I could have spared you so much."
"I couldn't," I told him. "I tried to, but I couldn't. I didn't know if you loved me enough to — to want me if you knew. I was afraid."
He stopped me there in the dusky twilight and turned me to face him.
"I don't know why you didn't know. I've been trying to tell you for weeks. But you always seemed so strong and sure inside yourself — I was afraid you couldn't need me as I needed you and—"
"Me? Strong and sure?" I laughed weakly. "I was the scaredest person in the world — until today, Andy."
"That was only because you thought so. You never tried to see what was inside. You forgot you had the courage to take care of Julian and make a way for yourself when everything was against you. That's the trouble with a lot of us — we run from noises because we think we're scared. You won't ever think that again, will you?"
"No," I said. "Not ever."
"And you'll marry me soon?"
"Any time you say, Andy . . ."
We kissed and this time there was no interruption from the past, no interruption from anything. Then we went in the house and walked up the stairs together to tell Julian . . .

ANDRE KOSTELANETZ, whose Sunday afternoon concerts on CBS are a highlight of the musical week. Born in St. Petersburg, he began piano lessons almost as soon as he could walk, and his first experience as a conductor came at the age of eight, when, on a visit to Finland, he was allowed to lead a band. At 19, he became conductor at the Grand Opera House in his native city, where, during the last war, fuel was so scarce that the orchestra men rehearsed in fur coats. He came to this country after the war. Since 1932 he has been on CBS almost without a break, and he and his wife, Lily Pons, have shattered box office records throughout the country in their joint concerts. His present aim is to present what he calls "middle music" — music which is not as austere as most symphonic music.
