Pete was In the heating business and doing pretty well at It. But the years hadnt treated his pal so well. He was a doctor, and he wasnt making much money at his chosen profession. In fact, he was behind in his rent down at the office, and was going to have to move out on the first of the week. Well Pete had a couple of trucks that he used In his business, and he offered to move his friends furniture. His pal accepted the offer gratefully, and on Saturday, Pete went down to his office to help him pack up. ( Landlord Was the Last Man They Wanted to See. Pete started out for the office that Saturday with his pack of cigarettes In his pocket and little dreaming that one of those butts would suddenly turn into a before the evening was over. He got to the Docs office and they began packing up the furniture. They had been working for about half an hour when there came a knock on the door. Pete started to open it, but the Doc held him back, whispering to him that it was probably the landlord, who lived In the building, and what with owing him a lot of rent money, he. was the last man in the world Doc wanted to meet. Hut somebody had to say something. To be discreet, says Pete, I asked who was there, and I was asked the same thing. I told him I was a friend of Docs and that we were cleaning house.

It was a close call, but it looked as If they had gotten by with It Pete and Doc were almost finished with the packing by then. There were just a few things left that the Doc wanted to take care of himself. Pete lit a cigarette and called It a day. He put on his coat, walked down the stairs, and waited for the Doc who said he would be with him shortly. It was cold outside, so Pete just stood in the vestibule to keep warm. "The vestibule was dark, he says, and all I could see was the lighted cigarette between my fingers. The Doc was a long time coming. I finished my cigarette, waited a while, and then lit another one. It was a good thing I did. The fact that I am alive today is probably due in a large measure to the fact that, at times, I will smoke one cigarette right on top of another. The minutes dragged on. Pete was halfway through that second cigarette and was beginning to wonder why the Doc didnt come. His back was to the door and he was leaning against the wall when suddenly, out of nowhere came the terse command : Put them up Landlord Is Suspicious of Skulduggery in Docs Office.

He didnt believe Pete when he said he was a friend of Docs and, in fact, sort of suspected that there was burglary afoot Glowing Cigarette Butt Is Beacon to Copper.

At the first command, which Pete didnt obey, the cop tightened his finger on the trigger. He was ready to shoot the minute the second command was out of his mouth. It was dark In the vestibule.
