It didnt occur to you, I suppose, she said, that as shrewd a man as he might have planted It himself guessing that the police would reason that way? "It did, the inspector told her wearily, even after our edical officer told us that Mrs. Talbert was not stabbed in that booth at all, but was brought there after the murder." Oh! Christine said blankly. Then she rushed on in her eagerness to get on with her own errand, But what I really came to tell you is that, when I did examine my things, I found these hidden away among them." r miserably. And then some. His voice was a little grim. But at any rate, Im still in circulation. And Ive got a little sleuthing of my own to do while I am. Ill be sewed up tight till noon; but how about meeting me for lunch about 12:30 at the same place where we ate last night? Christine said, 'Til be there, Bill, and hung up, trembling a good deal. But Inspector Parsons, she remembered after a moment, did not arrest people for murder until he was sure they would stay arrested. . . . And she had business with Inspector Parsons h elf, as soon as she could find him.She was admitted to Inspector Parsons office at once. He looked, Christine thought, as if he had hardly slept; but he was as cool and alert as ever. Ive come to tell you, she began, that Ive been a good deal of a fool. You and several other?, he agreed pleasantly. Last evening. Christine hurried on, I went to a public reading by a clairvoyant called Chandra And he told you, the inspector put in with a tired smile, among a lot of other things you didnt believe any one but yourself could possibly know, that you were going under an assumed -- - name? Why yes, Christine ad- mitted; but he also told me something that may surprise even you, Inspector that someone had my things at the Crest-vie- dis-tuib- ed w. "So you have called to' tell me that it was Chandras dagger you found so opportunely last night. A little late, isnt it? After a startled breath, Christine asked, HoW dd 'ytia knoW that it is his? "Practically every one In Surf City has seen that dagger. You diew his picture yesterday. Artists don't miss picturesque details like that.

Then youve attested him? By WILLIAMS OUT OUR WAY CHE pushed the envelope across his desk. He opened it, riffled through the contents; then looked up, a frown between his brows. And, Christine finished hastily, I havent any idea who put them there or whose they are, if that's what youre going to ask. He glanced from her to the papers and back again with such cool, mirthlesa amusement that Christine thought in sudden panic, Hes found something I missed. I should have looked more carefully. You mean, the inspector demanded, that you don't know that these bonds were the property of your cousin? After a moments blank consternation, Christine shook her head wordlessly. Well, now that I have told you, does it suggest anything to you that you had not thought of you cant believe that, Inspector Parsons. Frankly, I dont know what I believe except that finding these has completely changed the complexion of this whole business. I have been supposing that your cousins death was tied up with her opposition to the Amalgamated-National merger. Now it begins to look as it it had only been very neatly timed to loox that way or planned to suggest anything except whats really back, of it. . . . Have you read the papers, Miss Thorenson? told him, Christine Yes, dreading she hardly knew what. That is the extra, after I left here early this morning. Then perhaps you saw that your cousins shoes had been found to fit one pair of those footprints leading from that stranded rowboat toward the booth where she was found?

That story happened to be true, except, Inspector Parsons was going on, that they werent made by the shoes she was wearing; but another pair, identical in measurements with one slightly broken heel. We havent found those shoes yet; but we are reasonably sure that they were taken from your cousins house by someone who entered it after it was closed the other evening taken for the express purpose of making that false trail.
