Derria Martin glanced at her
watch. It was quite a bit later
'than usual, almost a quarter to
rtwelvt. A little more of that boring
-neech she had had to listen to and
. jbe would have missed the late bus.
And It seemed to move so slowly
Suddenly she noticed a man run
'ntng for the bus. He appeared to
come out of the doorway of a small
hand-laundry establishment, which
semed to be shut for the night,
fer only a night light burned, faint
Jf illuminating the words, "Liberty
Rundry," across the front windows.
Just in time, the driver saw him
juid stopped.
i : She observed him unsteadily get
ting change from the driver. The
Jius started with a lurch, almost
iMirowlng the man to the floor, but
he recovered himself in time and
ieame awaying down the narrow
Jlisle toward her.
i A tall, well-built man, he sprawled
on the rear seat near her.
? ! "Good heaven, he looks sick,"
jperrla thought, noticing his ex
Jfeme pallor.
i Presently, however, he seemed
"to draw himself together, for he
pulled out a newspaper and began
tnrougn tne pages. y
the last of the passengers
Some four steps beyond the point
Where they had picked up the last
'fire, two more passengers climbed
jCAi. They were now well into the
jnore sparsely populated residential
'district, approaching the very out
skirts of the city. Even the stores
Were few and far between.
I J Derria idly noticed the two new
.passengers. They were inconsplcu
,4His)y dressed, and wearing dark,
rather heavy overcoats for that
time or the year, with nais puuea
Sell down over their eyes.
:.The man beside her let go one
jide of the paper, and as his hand
lay for a moment across his knee
he suddenly saw it a thin red
ytream had appeared under the
.tfage 01 nis sleeve ana was Degin
jiing to spread across the top of
ills hand down between his fingers.
V'Her eyes followed Its slow, dark
Jrogress. Suddenly, she realized
Jhat he was looking at her. No
use to pretend that she hadn't seen
"Hi. Whatever was wrong, it was
too late to feign Ignorance now.
! "You're hurt," she said.
.m i "Yes." There was a minute's
liesitatlon, as if he were making
th nis mina.
"Is there anything I can do?"
(le inquired.
,im"No," he answered shortly.
mThere was a silence for a mo-
'ftient; then, In spite of the rebuff,
JJerrla tried once more.
,!"What are you going to do when
you get off the bus?"
"He paused for a moment.
!"Have you far to go when you
jiiave the bus?"
L,,"Only to the terminal parking
fat, to get my oar. It's a com-
'aratively short drive home from
1 there."
;J!."That' O.K., then; It'll give you
chance to get well out of It.
This Is the Idea. .As we pull Into
me terminal, we get up and leave
- tne bus together. Don't hurry, and
, don't Indicate In any way that
j there's anything wrong. We'll make
. lor your car then I'll beat It.
' Well?" the man beside her asked
quietly.
As quietly as his question, she
j answered, "Yes," and then they
., were driving Into the terminal.
. Without appearing to glance
round, she noticed that the strang
ers were definitely following now,
i although they continued to keep
, their distance. Now they had passed
beyond the faint glow of the term-
tnal lamps.
"Tma way," aha urged, turning
wif tly into the gravelled parking
.. lot. Their feet crunched sharply
in the shadowy quiet.
"Well, this is It," he remarked
Srlmly. "You've got to get out of
re and ao have I. Thanks for
'playing along with me. At least
it's delayed tilings."
He glanced toward the thick trees
at one end of the lot. Even in
the Intense dark, they loomed for-
. btddingly.
For one endless second, she peered
"t him. This was all wrong! He'd
never get away. She followed his
bUirred silhouette against the front
..mudguard. Was he going to stop
.fiere indefinitely? In heaven's

name, why didn't he run lor it?
Suddenly, Derria realized what was
wrong. What a fool she had been
not to realize it before. He prob
ably was not in any condition to
do much running.
Quickly, she formed a plan and
put it into Instant execution. Her
foot on the starter brought an im
mediate response. The car began
to roil forward.
The darkness which, at first, had
seemed such a help, now baffled
her. She dared not put on the lights
for fear of making him a direct
target.
The sound of the motor dead
ened the noise of pursuing feet,
but to Derria, with all her senses
tensed like a colled spring, it seemed
as if she could hear them almost
beside her.
Suddenly she saw him, slightly
to the right. He hesitated as the
car drew level with him. In one
motion, she leaned across and
pushed open the door on his side.
"Don't argue get in hurry!"
Her voice sounded high-pitched
with urgency.
For a split second, she thought
he would refuse; then he quick
ly got in beside her.
In the momentary silence be
fore the car began to roll again,
she heard the footsteps. They
weren't pretending any longer
There was an urgency about them
as they began to run across the
gravel. The car was tearing through
tne gate now, slowing only suffi
ciently to make the sharp left turn.
"We made it. They'll have to
go some to catch us now," Derria
shouted.
There was no response from the
man beside her. He had fainted,
was out com!
