MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 7, 1942. PAGE TWELVE Official U. S. Treasury War Bond Quotas for August by Gaorg Harmon Cox Chapter 40 All Together HESTOR turned and started (or the halL TU get my things." Murdork went over to Nason. "Coming?" "Certainly not," Fenner edged up beside Mur doch "Should he? -1 think so." "So da L" Tenner moved a llt- (1 closer to Nason. who backed o a half step. "We've decided I ju'd better come, too," Fenner aid. He hesitated, smiling a little, his voice neither aggressive or blustering, but quiet and slow spoken. The threat was all In his eyes and his smile meant nothing. "I havt an appointment," Na son said. Fenner neither moved nor spoke. Nason met that flinty gaze for some seconds and a flush crept upward from his throat, in the end he looked away and spread his hands, palms up. "That's fine said Fenner. "We appreciate it" "Very well It's quite prepos terous, you know, but " "Sure," Fenner said. "We know." Murdock and Hestor rode with Nason, and Fenner drove his own car, following closely until they came to the traffic light at Ken more Square. Here he pulled up alongside and stuck his head out of the window, "Look" he said. "Maybe a drink would helD. huh? There're a couple of places down the avenue a ways. Any oi em are oxay. Murdock erd him disgustedly IIU 1 1 U U g t. . Wt . be said. ... When they got out at Ward Allen's nlaca thev waited for Fenner, He shook his head at them. They went up the stairs. It was an old brownstone front which had been remodeled into ima modern apartments, and Ward Allen's quarters were on the sec ond floor. Murdock knocked When there was no answer he knocked again. "I hate you for this!" Murdock turned. Hestor was tight beside him, her mouth curved bitterly. "My, my," said Fenner, and then the door swung open. Hestor moved her shoulders, cut her chin and stepped ahead, Nason following and Murdock and Fenner going in almost to gether. Surprise THE room they entered was large and hlgh-ceillnged and the door opened directly into It The furniture was comfortable- looking but well worn, masculine in cnaracter excem tor tne smaii couch along one wall. This, while upholstered in some rough fabric, was modeled on the lines of a love seat, and It was here that Delia Stewart and Dean Thorn- dike were sitt nff. Jovce had corner chair and Ward Allen was standing in tha center of the room. Hestor stopped In front of him, taking in the others with a quick, moving glance. Nason stayed with her. Murdock and Fenner took two or three steps; then, as though by some pre arranged signal they both stopped and wheeled about. Even then It seemed to Mur dock that Fenner had acted a fraction of a second before he did, and he wondered if the de tective's reaction was swifter than his own or whether he himself had been so tardy in grasping the significance of finding those four people waiting for them. What ever the reason it was not until the moment that he asked himself who had opened the door and knew that someone else was here. Don Raebum was closing the door when Murdork saw him and he had apparently kept well be hind it until they were all In. That there had been no warning Big Appelate, Aug. 7 (Spl.) A meeting of importance to very local residents will be held fit the Upper Applegate grange hall, Saturday, Aug. 8, when A.

The tension hit Murdock all of a sudden and he was aware only of Raebum and that automatic until the door had closed; then he realized that something had hap pened to Jack Fenner, and looked at him. The detective was standing be side him. poised and alert. His thin mouth was disdainful and his eyes were cold and sleepy looking. "Well " he said. "Surprise, huh?" He spoke to Murdock with, out looking at him. "This Rae bum?" "Donl" Hestor said. Her cry made Fenner turn. "You'd better sit down," he said "You. too, Nason." Raebum had leaned back against the door, tha gun steady In his hand. "That is good advice. May I suggest that you two gentlemen follow It as well?" Fenner's topcoat was open. He had his hat in one hand and with the other casually fanned out one side of the coat by putting on flst on his hip. "Put it down, fella!" he said. "Stay where you are!" Raebum said. "I should not like to shoot with all these people here." Fenner took a slow, forward step. "You're not going to shoot." "Easy, Jack," Murdock said. Joyce Murdock came forward In her chair. She remembered all those things Kent had told her about Jack Yenner and knew that they were so. His Jaw was like a rock and his upward-slanting eyes were thin and mean. "No, Jackl" she said. "Please." Fenner moved again. Raeburn called to him, but the detective kept coming, slowly, with short, shuffling steps. He was scarcely six feet away now and Raeburn set his lips. His Angers tightened. Then the gun roared and jumped upward in his hand. Fenner stopped. For another second his eyes remained fixed and he made no visible reaction; then he took his fist from his hip and held up the tail of his coat, inspecting it carefully until he found a hole in it. He put his Anger through it and looked back at Raeburn. "Called me, huh?" he said. "And this coat set me back seventy-five bucks." "The next hole," said Raeburn, "will be in you." The Party MURDOCK broke the spell that gripped him and took Fen ner's arm. "Sit down, will you? 1 want to hear what he's got to say." He turned and went over to Joyce. She looked up, seeing the graveness and censure in his eyes. "1 coulcln t nelp it," sne saio. "I asked you to keep out ol this." "I know, Kent. But I really was coming here to see Ward and Delia, just as I told you on the telephone. But he" sne glanced at Raeburn "was waiting for me. I got in the car " "There was nothing else she could do," Raeburn said. Murdock looked at him and then let (jis eyes touc!. the others in the room. Thev all watched Raeburn with varyina degrees of uncertainty and alarm; all except Fenner. Murdock sat on the arm of Joyce's chair and waited. "I've gone through a lot of trouble," Raeburn said, "and much unpleasantness since I ft San Baria. I was desperate this morning. I got the idea that I must get Mrs. Murdock out or tne wav a stimid idea. I must admit. She convinced me of it although at the time I thought that if I could hide her some place so that she could not identify me I might be able to finish my job." "What Job?" Murdock asked. "Perry Clarke had some papers. I wanted them." "You had them," Murdock said. "You mean that envelope? You got it from Delia." Te be eenllnaea' which they wars renting.
