CHAPTER B. . . .
Where Is Jerry?
Deacon greeted mo briefly , and
went slowly towards tho figure nt
the desk, lie stood looking down
at It. his square face whlto and his
sca-bluo eyes humid with emotion.
The dagger was carefully re
moved, and Dr. Oakley began his
examination. Deacon turned to me.
"Well. John, what about It?"
I had been dreading ihe ques-
Tho front jUhit upened. Huh
.hard's voiee, deferential and ex
planatory, came to iih. Another's'
broke in upon it, hard and ru spin if
in lone nud familiar to me. My .
eye Mprani? to Deacon's in iiKton-'
jshment. I saw htm it tiff en; n look
of irritation crossed his honest j
fiiee. I love a contest, and in spite (
of my astonishment and heaviness'
of heart, 1 half smiled. Hut what
had brought I.ulher MacNair here?
"Hood evening, gentlemen."
MacNair hud, preceded Hubbard
into the room, and he stood look
ins at us "with that cold, discon
certing stare which was to become
so familiar to me in the next few
days. A year or two my Junior, he
had retired from professional life
six months ago and taken up resi
dence In San Felipe. . Ho brought
with htm a handsome reputation
as a man-tracker,, ltuthtess In his
methods and diabolically clever, ho
was said to be less a personality
than a machine. '
"I called to see OKden Mac
(Nair wont on. 'This man,"' nod
ding at Hubbard, "tells me he has
been murdered."
Deacon indicated the flguro on
the cuueh. "Pretty late for call
ing. Isn't it?"
"I am here at Ogden's - Invita
tion. When I got homo a few min-
"Wherc has he gone?
"I don't know. sir. As I told
you, 1 heard Mr. Jerry and Mr.
ugden talking in Iho library a few
minutes after nine. That Is all 1
know, sir."
Again there was silence. I man
aged to get myself in hand. Dea
con was thinking. Presently ho
said:
"I suppose It wnn you who left
Mr. Ogden's card nt H'. Mac
Nalr's V" ' -
-No, sir. I left It there."
Stlmson, the gardener, had an
swered the last question, his eyes
challenging mine.
"You are the pardoner, nren t
Deacon asked.
TABLE ROCK HAS
SHEEP THIEF OF
i
you .'
"Uhhuh."
"What time did Mr. Ogden give
you this card 7"
"Around six. I guess. That Kurio
feller had Just gone down the drive.
Mr. Ogden called me. gave mo the
card and told me where to leave It.
There was nobody at home, so I
shoved it under tho door."
Deacon nodded.
' Your rooms are over tho ga
rage, aren't they?"
. "Uh-huh."
"Is Mr. Jerry's car in tho ga
rage?" "No. It ain't. Dut It was there
round nine o'clock just before I
dropped In tho Hu boards!'1
"Did you see or hear the car
go?"
"Nope." Stlmson leered at me,
then ho leaned confidentially to
wards Deacon. "I'd like a word
with you alone. Chief."
(Copyright, 192U, William Morrow
Co.)
Wliat will Stlmson say to Dea
con? Did he see Jerry running
from the house? Tomorrow's chap
ter will tell. ,
.
MacNair stood looking- nl us with his cold, disconcerting .stare.
tion. I detailed (niy purchase, of
tho revolver and1 Hyde's secrecy
about it, the telephone call, how
I had found Andrew, Mrs. M of fit's !
message and what Hubbard had
told me. Henry listened with eyes
like points of ice.
I over. John ?"
Henry could not possibly know
1 that I had seen Jerry or anyone
else, yet I felt as if he were look
ing into my mind. My voice was
steady as I replied:
"T saw no one."
i Stlmson, tho gardener, stood nt
iho door with Hubbard. Htlmson's
eyes were riveted upon mo, and
there was in them something' 1 Mid
not like. Stlmson had been with
Ogdens less than n! year, anil ' I
haven't seen much of him. For
some obscure reason ho irritates
me. I was suddenly vaguely con
scious of disaster. It came upon
mo overwhelmingly that 1 should
prevent Stlmson from speaking,
and I blurted out:
"Hubbard had better tell you his
story, Henry."
Hubbard proceeded to enlarge
upon what I had already told Dea
con. Deacon turned to mo, "Hubbard
tells us Ogden shouted tho two j
words 'gold bulletcs.' The bullets
In . this Peterson revolver you
bought are gold. Do you suspect
a connection ?"
"1 don't know any more than
you do, Henry."
Dr. Oakley spoke just then. "He's
been dead an hour or so. Deacon."
Deacon looked at his watch.
"Ten-twonty-five," ho muttered.
"What time did you find him,
John?"
"Nine-thirty-three."
Tho dull thud, thud, of the front
door knoelier reverberated through
the hall. Coming like I hut! It star
tled all of us. Hubbard hurried
info the ball.
IN WAGNER CREEK
uIhh ago I found this card under
my door." .MacNair gave Deacon
one of Andrew Ogden's personal
cards.
On the back of the card Andrew
had written:
- ' Mr. MacNair: You were out
when I called. There Is a mat
ter I wish to discuss with you.
Will you drop in as soon as
you return? This is Important.
' . , . A. O.
"Have you any idea what Ogden
wanted?" Deacon, asked.
, "Specifically, no."
; "You moan he may have wanted
to see you In a professional way?"
"Yes. Jiut 1 retired six months
ago."
Henry looked nl. Ihe body. "1
am sorry you weren't home," lie
grieved. "Andrew might havo been
with us now."
"You'll ge.t your man easily
enough." .
"Ah! tho solution Is already ap
parent 'to you," Henry flashed at
him.
"Dear, dear! .1 was trying my
hand at a compliment."
"You were never known for your
compliments, MacNair."
"I suppose not. It's a grim busi
ness, this man-catching.' Hut I'm
through with it. A man with 23
hangings and 14 electrocutions to
his credit has no business being In
terested in anybody's murder but
his own. You'll find mo at 2311
Magnolia If you want me. Joud
night, Deacon. Regards to Polyan
drla, Peebles." v
Deacon went to the glass-looped
cabinet behind the desk and lifted
the lid.
"That dagger Is kept here, Isn't
It, Hubbard?"
"As d rule, sir." .
"It belongs to Mr. Jerry, doesn't
It?" .....
, ."Yes, sir."
"Where is Mr. Jerry. Hubbard?"
"I T- believe he Is nut, sir."
