Meet Mr.Lochmvar

Chapter 38 '
'A Lot Of Telling'
"1VTHERE is Philip?" ,
"In jail, ma'am."
1 beg your pardon?'' Locke
' mocked.
"Say, you even got me mixed
up." The sheriff roared at his joke.
Olivia said, "Mr. Callen Isn't Mr.
Callen," as though that explained
it
"He's a long-wanted Jewel thief,
member of an international
ring," Dr. MacDonald said.
Cecily said, "And I'm the Queen
of the May, I suppose. Or, am I de
lirious?" Gloria said, "If you'll all keep
quiet I'll try to make it plain. Ce
cily, Philip Callen is really Slick
Rawlins. Only he's really . . .
Gloria broke down, laughing. She
reached across Cecily's cot and
clutched Locke's good hand. "This
is Philip Callen, you little liar
your 8anceT'
Cecily fat up.
"No, she isn't a liar, Miss Watts.
She is my fiancee, aren't you, dar
linp?" "In that case," Olivia pro
nounced, wrapping her quilt about
her, "I suggest that we go and have
a look at the remnants of my house
and allow Cecily's nance to tell her
the story himself."
"Don't forget your Jewels, Moth
er," Gloria said, picking up the
leather case that had been lying
on the table. "You ought to have
learned a lesson tonight"
Cecily's eyes avoided Locke's
only he wasn't Locke any more
as the others went out
Then she said, "I wish I could
crawl under this cot"
. He said, "Shall we?"
"Oh, Locke ... I mean ..."
"Locke's my name," he said. "I
told you it was, Philip Locke Cal
len." "You told it to me once before
and I didn't believe you. Oh, dar
ling, how can you ever forget the
way I've treated youl The things
I thought about youl Only I didn't
down in my heart"
"I know more about your heart
man you do, young lady, ana I m
going to spend the rest of my life
telling you about it"
."You1!! have a lot of telling to
dot And you might start now, Tm,
eompieieiy in me aarx. nou seem
to be everybody's darling as well
as mine. Of course, that's not unex
pected exactly except that they
don't know you as well as I do. You
ee that's the surprising thing
(bout it I didn't know that they
knew you."
"They didn't Cecily, I never no
ticed before that your nose turns
up. I thought you were only turn
ing it up at me."
"I'll do worse than that if you
don't go on."
"Well, then, not only was I un
known liere but I am also practi
cally unknown everywhere and
mat s the way It all began.
Pulp Writer .
"ARE you really going to talk
1 sense? she pleaded.
"If I don't look at you I may be
ante to. otherwise my mind wan
ders. All right ... all right, look
out for that bad arm. Now then
I'm a pulp writer, which means
that nobody ever heard of me be
cause I use a string of pen names.
I did have one book to which I
carelessly attached my real name.
And that one book didn t make me
famous. As far as I knew, no one
had ever heard of Philip Callen."
He struggled to get at a cigarette
with his left hand. Cecily managed
It for him.
"I'm going to be a help to you."
she snicl.
"You are, my love. I got this," he
Indicated his helpless hand, "slug
ging a guy right on the kisser."
"What's a Kisser?"
He demonstrated.
"We'll probably have to spend
the winter here if I'm to hear the
rest of this story," she said pa
tiently. "Imagine my surprise one bright
summer morning to discover via
the New York Chronicle that I
Philip Callen, no less 'prominent
author was the house-guest of the
distinguished Madame uarrell."
"I saw that clipping. In fact I
tent it toJoanTuthill of the Chron
icle myselfl"
"Providence moves In a strange
way . . . Well, sir, I says to myself,
rd better take myself for a little
trip and And out what poor bloke
has to use my name. Then, on that
fortuitous night when ; fell into
your clutches ..." Cecily made a
face at him and got kissed for her
trouble. "Where was I? Oh, yea,
that first night ... I discovered that
you seemed startled when I told
you my real name. 1 sez, "Philip,
this lady knows that bird and mav
be we can find out something.' But

I never expected to find out that
fou were engaged to him. Now,
m an honorable young man and I
don't believe that a fellow should
use another fellow's name when he
asks a girl to marry him."
. He paused to get her approba-.
tlon. '
I'm slad I can count on vou.
she replied obligingly. "But I told
you I really wasn't engaged to him,
didn't I?"
"Yes. ma am. and rieht then I
got thinking. I looked that fellow
over and I thought: what would
he want to stick around a place
like Darelea all summer for? It
didn't look right It was fishy
enough to make ma stick around
and watch.
"Then Lady Whosia lost a valu
able pin and Pushface was on the
party. I thought I'd have a look at
the records and see if he had any
portraits hanging around the de
tective Bureaus, lie nao. ceciiyi
Front and side views and five
thousand dollars reward from a
syndicate of insurance companies."
' Why didn t you nab him then?
Cecily demanded, unconscious that
she was falling into Locke's ver
nacular. "Its been tried before, dear
child. He's slick. The idea was to
get the goods on him. You and
Laura almost forced my hand.
Then the night that the brute
slugged her from behind . . ."
"Oh, my darling, is that what
happened?"
"That's what happened. How it
did, I don't know, but I picked her
up in the road, unconscious, and
she says no one knew that she was
coming to my place." .
' 'Heaven"
"IV AIT a minute, Locke . . . Tm
' ' remembering something! That
night I called Laura on the tele
phone and said that I wanted to
see you. I called from the house
and Philip must have overheard
me and been suspicious that I was
suspicious. Go on."
"Then he probably slugged her
thinking she was you. Next step
was easy. Everybody knew about
the concert knew that it was a
dressed-up affair, that this opera
gang would be bringing a fortune
in jewels. Any child would know
that this was the night when a
thief would pull his big coup ..."
, "But Mrs. Goodale's necklace?"
"He didn't intend to do that. He
just got itchy fingers and couldn't
resist the temptation. Discretion

Yacht Club?"
"Having what's known ac a look
see. I'd been away looking up some
records and thought I'd find out if
he was still around when I got
back. I knew you'd start asking me
questions, as usual, so I ducked."
Cecily's cheeks were pink with
excitement "Go on, dear, this is
more exciting than any of it What
.about tonight?"
"For awhile I was afraid I'd miss
tonight and I got in a stew . . . Had
to go to New York to finish a movie
sale. By the way, we'll have ten
thousand dollars to start married
life on. Five for the sale of the book
and five for the reward."
"Moneyl You talk of money
when I'm expiring with curiosity!"
"Honey, I've been hanging
around these grounds all evening
waiting for you all to go to bed.
Then I settled down cosily to a
little meditation outside of Ma
dame Dan-ell's room, knowing the
jewels were in there and that
friend Rawlins would make for
there.
"What I didn't count on was that
he was going to start a fire to cover
up and grab the loot in the excite
ment I thought he'd just grab and
run. He gave the alarm himself and
the flro was well under way when
he gave it Madame Darrell rushed
out of her room. He rushed in! So
did I! Well ..." He shrugged his
shoulders.
"I know the rest." she said
sweetly.
"You knocked him out and got
him . . . well, I know that they've
?ot him. Then you came looking
or me, didn't you?"
"Well, I went looking for you. I
thought it was time I put you in
your place."
"Flat on some stone steps?"
"Oh, sweet! I'm sorry . . . but I've
got two arms and they both belong
to you."
''You've got a black eye! And I
suppose that belongs to me, too?"
"That's what they call a mouse,
Cecily. And you're right it belongs
to yoa Having only one eye. 1 11
have to see through yours."
Cecily swayed toward him.
"Philip Callen, no mere man could
bear the brightness of the things
I'm seeing through them now."
"Close them," he said, "and tell
me what you see now." He kissed
them gently and Cecily said,
"Heaven!"
