GUY HAMMERSLEY. 105 CHAPTER XVI. GUY FINDS THE THIEF, “THEN it was you who stole that thirteen dollars irom Mr, Inwood, and you knew that I was bearing the blame of it?” Guy could not avoid giving a bitter ring to his tones as he stood facing the girl who had been the means of bringing upon him all the mental misery of the past few days. ‘‘Why do you ask me that when you knew it and came here to taunt me with it?” The girl had dropped into one of the horsehair chairs and sat rocking herself back and forth, with her hands over her face. Guy was on the point of declaring that he had no such knowledge, but decided that such an admission might be an unwise one for him to make, so he walked over to the girl's chair, and, bending down, said softly : ‘“Why did you do such a thing? I am sure you are sorry for it, and, if you tell enough to clear me, I will do all I can to prevent their sending you to prison. But first you will have to tell me all about it.” | Gomicboo cS (E(@) m
