TT AIM ZTT' PAYING HIGHEST ""a for FU R S See Me at TAYLOR MOTEL 4 "Why, several of the guests. Hugh Norcross and the minister. I don't think Mr. Potter does anything but paint, but Bessie Norcross sometimes plays. You don't mean ?" Again the picture of Mr: De Witt saying what he'd like to do to Roddy as he made his vicious stroke on the lawn came to my mind. "You didn't see a golf club in the basement, near the chest, I mean, did you?" "Nothing but that hand with the ring flashing horribly." I hid my face in my hands and shuddered. "I'm a brute," Victor said. "We won't talk about it any more." "We will, too," I flared. "There wasn't any golf club there when I examined the chest after the auction. I'm sure of that, because I hunted around for something to pry up the lid with, and had to use a bobby pin. Why? Did you see one down there tonight. Mr. Quade?" "I did," he said, "but I didn't mention the fact to the others. It was back of the chest, and there was a dark stain on it that looked like blood." "Blood!" I repeated, horrified, when Victor said a stained golf club was in the church basement. "Positively. And in the chest, too. Not much, but a stain at one end. I made De Witt and Potter stay on the stairs while I investigated with a flash. Hard work, I tell you. That minister was bound to walk all over the place, despite what I told him about footprints for the police. I believed you from the first, Miss Jason." "So you went ahead?" "And opened the chest it unlocked to find it empty. Then I asked the others to scout around the cliff path, beyond the basement door to see if friend Lane was staggering along wounded. But I knew better. I wanted to get rid of them and have time to examine the chest and shut it up again." I was shaking all over, yet enjoying it in a way npt the murder, of course; but the mystery, the excitement, being mixed up in the middle of it with such a topnotcher as Victor Quade. Suddenly I was filled with terror. "Could his his body have been in the chest when I was trying to open it after the auction?" "Undoubtedly. The killer had put it there for safekeeping, but something made him decide he'd better get rid of it. Anybody know about s - Been trying to sell it." "Probably takes the local Rockville papers. That's how he knew about the auction. Good night." He smiled at me and I liked him. "Don't worry." "Good night." I turned on the dimmer in the hallway and started upstairs. Halfway up I felt, rather than saw, someone staring down at me. Petrified, I forced myself to look up. Bessie Norcross was leaning over the banisters. "Oh, I'm so glad if s you, Judy," she said. "I heard voices and hoped you hadn't come up yet. Did you get my key?" What did she know? How long had she been there? Had she heard Apparanything of the goings-on- ? ently not or she'd have yelled for her brother. "I'm so sorry. Miss Norcross. I did get you a key, but left it down at the church in my bag, after the auction. You shall have it tomorrow without fail." "Well, I'd like it tonight. Do you know your guests have been missing things out of their rooms?" Please. Nqbody has re"Sh-h-h-- ported" I "Well, know better. Mr. Pot- ter's just discovered he has lost a bottle of turpentine and he's furi-- ; ous. Have to go to Rockville for more, he said, and he wants to finish his picture of the old Quaker church in the morning. And I've lost that lovely blue scarf I wear around my head. It's Hugh's really, but" Turpentine! A silk scarf! I tried to keep the annoyance out of my tone. "They'll turn up. Who'd steal turpentine? As for the scarf, maybe your brother borrowed it back. Stick a chair under your doorknob. I'll get that key the first thing tomorrow." I brushed by her. She'd had a good sleep, but now that the effects of her sleeping medicine had worn off, she'd talk all night if I'd let her. If Albion Potter still wanted to paint in the midst of blown-ubridges and missing dead bodies, couldn't he use kerosene? I'd give him some in the morning. But now I .staggered up another flight and quickly hopped into bed. Tomorrow I'd help Victor Quade. I mustn't forget to jot down the fact that Thaddeus Q. could manage to p that old chest?" "Everybody. All our guests. They knew I'd bought the church and I bragged quite openly about using the old sea box for a hope chest." "Just when was that?" "I don't know. Suppertime, when I was serving, I think. They all congratulated me." Victor Quade's dark eyes glinted. "You'll never want it for a hope chest now. Tell me, why did you buy the church?" Should I tell him? I wanted to, but the $500 still hidden in my stocking and the silence imposed by my anonymous friend bade me wait. "Oh, for a lending library or a tearoom." I took the defensive. "I'm really a teacher, stranded without a school. This hostess business is just a vacation affair." "But a lending library so far from town?" I could see he didn't believe me, though I looked him straight in the eye. "Well, if you want to write mystery stories, here's one ready-madAll you have to do is fill in the gaps." "It's perfect. Couldn t have asked anything bettcf." "Even if you had constructed it yourself? Did you?" He laughed quietly. "We're all suspects. When I plan a killing, I shan't come in a trailer and park for the summer, leaving the getaway car five miles back in Rockville." "You might if you were very, very e. clever." of known origin.

But if a minute, will you jot down you get anything unusual that occurs to you about this business? Help me work it out? We've quite a head start on the police." It was after midnight. I promised and said goodnight. But though he sent me to bod, Mr. Quade seemed reluctant to let me go. It would be easy enough to check up whose mashie was missing, he said, but the police would be leary of a murder with no body. The bridge was different. Time bomb, he decided. He hoped something definite would be washed ashore. Just one more question, and he'd let me go. Why should Lane want that wretched little church enough to come just for the auction, wherever he'd come from? "Somewhere out West." I told him. "Los Angeles, I think, or San I don't know why he Francisco. should want the church, either, or how he knew about the auction.
