I'm go ing to dig into it and find out where I you were and what you were doing every minute of the time during the p&st five years. I'm going to find out where you worked, where you lived, who your friends were, who wrote to you, and to whom yon, wrote. I'm going to put your life under a microscope and, when I do that, I THINK I'm going to uncover some thing that will point to an affair of some sort between you and tb dead chauffeur. Does that many anything to you.'' Millicent felt as though her heart had become a chunk of lead. She knew this very capable detective wouldn't bo fooled, by any casual falsehoods 4 liico Mr. tibippo m'ikv vbiufe a pj order to give her A fictitious back ground to account for her past his tory. She knew this detective would make a inicroscn)ic invest igatfoi and thnt, within n day or two, at the most, he would be nble to pierce the secret of her past, but she tried to smite a him bravely and said, "I will give yen my word of honor, Sergeant, thnt I never snw, heard from, or knew Har ry F elding until the afternoon of the day prior to his murder." "But you went to his room for something," Sergeant Mahoney said. She clamped her lips together and said, "I'm sorry I made thnt state ment. I had resolved that I wouldn't tell you anything. However, I wanted to save you a lot of work." "Don't bother nbout saving me work," he said. "I like it." His eyes surveyed her in analytical appraisal. Abruptly he got to his feet. "I've got some trumps in my hand," he told her, "but you've got just enough cards of your own so that I can't tnke all the trick if I play mine now. I'm warning you that I'm going out and get some more trumps." "Go ahead." she told his defientlq. Sergeant Mahoney nodded to De tective Buchanan. Together, the two men started for the door. With his Kind on the door knob, Sergeant Mahoney paused, frowned at her, and asked quickly. "If you went in there after he had been murdered and weren't a party to the murder, why didn't you give the alarm She smiled, but said nothing. Sergeant Mahoney jerked the door open, "Come on, Buchi nnn," he said. As the door closed behind them, Millicent felt almost hysterical. She wished that she had a drink ol that whisky. Thinking of the whisky made her think of the manner in which Buch anan had written down the name of the brand on a piece of paper and passed it across to Mnhoney. She remembered Sergeant Mahoney bnd placed thnt piece of pnper down beside the gun. She looked across to the table on which the gun had reposed LITTLE ORPHAN ANNIE Honing for Trouble By HAROLD GRAY (Jhe Best of the Nation's 'Human-est" and Funniest Comics On This Page Daily WHERE V THW'S RIGHT- WE HAVEN'T HEfcRD k WORD FROM HIM SINCE, HAVE WE-- AH HERE HE VCOMES NOW BUT COULD PUNJAB HAVE GONE"?
