' Born of the Storm
By SIDNEY B. CARTER
(Chanter 28)
l don't want to take your girl
friend In." Inspector Duffy was
saying In exasperation. "It's no
pleasure to me. But, can't you see
Itoe picture? Here's a babe whose
iiusband's mean as hell to her.
She hates him. He's sick now. He
fcan't make a living lor ner, even
She's In love with another guy
. ghat's you. Well, one night three
witnesses three, mind you see her
standing over her husband's dead
body with a bloody knife In her
tana . . .
There was a sharp, and slightly
profane, exclamation from Dennis.
"Well," said Duffy, with a shrug
in' his voice, "what do you thing
we are down at headquarters, dumb
bells?" Dennis Indicated that that
was what he thought.
Priscilla spent a bad night in
Jail. As she left the house with
Inspector Duffy, there had been
soiinds of crying coming from the
living room. Priscilla felt sorry
for Viola at that moment. Daniel
had been a good husband up to
now, but that mean streak that
seemed to run through tne K.ents
made it hazardous to be mixed
uo with them in any way. Even
Pod what had Inspector Duffy
Dald? Three witnesses. That must
ihean that Pop and Dora, too, as
well as Mrs. tf.ent, naa maae tneir
i statement to the police . . . three
statements auainst Priscilla.
' The young girl had her chance
to make a statement of her own
when she reached headquarters, DUt,
after a moment's hesitation, she
declined. For one wild moment she
granted to lash out at them, tell
them the truth, try to make them
see how It was. but common sense
told her not to. She must trust
Dennis to do her talking for her
She must.
There was nothing much in the
oell, Just a cot. A barred shaft of
May sunlight slanted in. Priscilla
liiv down on the cot and let the
tears come. There was no one to see
her. Why not cry. The condemned
woman naa a gooa cry.
i She thought about the two mys
terious men who brought Kenneth
Borne. Who were they? Wouldn't
the police make any attempt to find
hem? Maybe they were criminals,
she thought. Maybe Kenneth had
got mixed up in something really
Bad In San Francisco. But, even
jjo, why should either of them want
So kill him? Why? Why? Her
mind, like her footsteps, went round
and round. There was no way out.
I Priscilla tossed on her prison cot
that nignt. Dennis i uennisi wny
difl I leave you and go back to
Kenneth. Why? Kenneth, even in
death had brought trouble to her.
No sleep came until toward dawn,
when she fell into a deep and
troubled nightmare . . .
! "Get up." said the matron's voice,
Priscilla opened her eyes. "Here's
ydtir clothes." Priscilla sat up and
looked at the suitcase the matron
was handing her. It was not hers
was Gertrude's. She opened it
and looked inside. It contained
some clothes she had left at her
old home. The matron turned the
lock on the cell and looked at
Priscilla curiously for a moment
through the bars. "A little girl
brought them," she said.
Prlicllla almost chuckled as
she pictured the scene In the
Hayden household when Gertrude
barged in and took the clothes
She wondered how her mother and
Lorraine had taken the news of
her arrest ... an accused mur
deress. The thought sobered her.
There was nothing to chuckle over.
But she felt a sense of warmth,
nevertheless, In knowing that she
had a friend like Gertrude. She
wondered why Gertrude had not
gone to the Kent home, but per
haps the police wouldn't let her.
Perhaps they wouldn't let anything
be taken out, even clothes.
Drusie must have brought the
nutcase, she surmised. She al
most cried again when she thought
of her little sister. It had been
such a long time since she had seen
her.
Priscilla dressed herself as best
he could In a faded blue dress, and
there was a clean white pique collar
to wear with It. When she walked
Into the Judge's Chambers at nine
o'clock, no one could have told
that she had spent the night In
Jail.
Everyone was there . . . except
Pop. He must have had a heart
attack after I left last night. Pris
cilla thought. His heart could never
stand a shock like that. Before
Priscilla took a seat at the right
of the desk, her glance flickered
over the others. Dennis was stand
ing at the window, looking out. He
did not turn around when she came
in escorted by a court attendant.
She had the feeling this time that
it was not inaiiierence on nis part.
It was that he could not bear to see
ner in custody.
f riscuia sat down. The Judge
had not entered as yet, and so
tney waited in silence, Mrs. Kent,
Viola, and Daniel opposite Priscilla
as If lined up against her. But
vioia ana Daniel aren't against me.
Priscilla thought, a hint of hvsteria
rising again. They can't be. And
yet what difference did it make
whether they were or weren't? They
weren't witnesses. Prlscilla's eyes
fell hopefully on Dora who sat
pigeon-toed, staring at her feet.
Perhaps, Dora ... but there could
be no hope there, either. Dora
was too stupid . . . Mrs. Kent fixed
ner eyes on Priscilla and glared
malevolently.
Everyone stood ud when the
Judge came In and then, before I
Priscilla realized the hearing had
started, it was over. Dennis stated
that his client pleaded "Not eulltv"
the Judge set her bail at $25,O0C
and her trial for next week. Mav
28th. Nine o'clock. That's all there
was to it. There was no talk of
violence nor capacity for violence.
of a gaping wound and blood on an
innocent hand. There was nothing.
Priscilla, dispatched to her cell.
sat down on the cot and waited
lor May 28th . . . nine o'clock.
