"It was true, wasn't it, that story about the shortage of accounts? Only it was Dean who was short and on my account?" 1 don't know." Ward said, watching Delia sip the brandy and water. "I kr.ew he'd taken the bonds not at first, but today. I could only guess why he'd taken them." Fenner stopped beside Thorn dike. "You'd better lie down." "It won't matter now." . "Want a drink?" "Nothing thanks." He re mained, sitting but the effect of the shock was passing and pain had begun to write its message on his face. "There are just one or two things I'd like to say." He paused and seemed to be having trouble breathing. "Hestor. . . , You're right about the hundred thousand. I was broke I tried to sell the ketch, but even that wouldn't have made much difference. I was short, with no way of making up. When you told me you wanted to pay Clarke I knew it was the break I'd wanted. I sent the bonds up by Ward to make It look right. All I had to do was borrow them from my other clients for a few hours and then put them back: then when I gave you an accounting H would be in order. ... I heard Clarke quarreling with Ward at Hestor't party: I overheard him talking to Raeburn on the terrace although t didn't know who Racburn ws then and it sound ed like blackmail. I hoped the murder would cover up the theft, but then there was Hardacker." "You wr-ro the one in the shadow of the house," Joyce said softly, remembering the moment on the terrace. Thorndike did not notice the Interruption. "I hadn't much choice," he said. "It was getting the bonds or prison. And for me anything would be better than that even this." He was silent then and present ly Hestor spoke. "Funny, fcvrn now when we know where the bonds are. they don't belong to me." She shrugged. "I pay off and got nothing." "The other thing," Thorndike aid, as though he had not heard, "is this I wouldn't have hurt Delia, Ward. I had to make you think I would, though. I had to scare you both to silence. I wanted a chance to run for It Anyone else, yes. I would have shot it out But not her." Delia got up. Ward tried to re strain her but she shook off his hand. She went to Thorndike and kneeled beside him. "I believe you." she said. Thorndike nodded and Delia's eyes filled. Somewhere in the dis tance siren shrilled, drawing rapidly nearer, then dying out again as it stopped below the windows. Ward went to Delia. He put his hands beneath her elbows and lifted her gently to her feet Bacon Burned Cp LIEUTENANT BACON gnawed on his lower lip and refused to be entirely placated. Arriving at the same time as the ambu lance, he had sent Thorndike to the hospital with Sergeant Keogh and word had Just come back that the man had died on the way. Now although the others had told him what had happened in the room, he was still far from satis fied. "Every time I get mixed up with you in a murder case," ha Forts Crevk, Aug. 14 (Spl.) The 4 II Club exhibition of live stock, and community din ner under the leadership of Alfred Pontr, Sr., were held August 8 at the Dodds Auto Park at Forts Creek store.

Bevels txuibiis, uttl la ievlwew,. said to Murdock. "you hold out on me s little. Now you've got your wife doing it" "She didn't bold out. Except at first." "She was coming nere to have It out with Allen. She even called you and Fenner. Did she call me?" "I wasn't sure," Joyce said. "I thought I was right but I couldn't be sure." Bacon looked down his nose at her. "Well, I got to hand it o you. It was nice figuring, that part about Raeburn not being able to get s gun. I had the same idea this morning and we've been checking it The nearest pawn shop to Hardacker's office is five blocks away, and that closed at nine. So I'd been wondering. About Allen, mostly. We'd checked Thorndike's alibi the night of Clarke's murder. It wasn't any thing. He was at his club like ne said, but there are couple of ways of getting out and in again besides the front door. The rec ord showed him as being in but it didn't mean a thing." He turned to Allen. "You actu ally did see her, huh?" he asked, indicating Delia. "That night at Perry Clarke's?" Allen nodded. Td parked my car and crossed the street. Just as I was about to step inside the entrance I saw her round the cor ner. I kept on, not believing it could be she: then I turned and looked again. When she went over to her car I was sure. I couldn't figure it out. but there was noth ing I could do. I had to see Clarke and I didn't want her to know anything about it" The Ash Can " A ND you went up and knocked and he let you in?" "I thought he was drunk. He staggered and fell backward. He never moved after that I bent over him and then I saw the blood. He spoke Just once. 'She took the envelope,' he said I could hardly hear him 'Dee did if" Allen glanced about Td seen her, you see, and knew that she must have been there. I never dreamed that instead of 'Dee' that's what I always call her he was trying to say, 'Dean.' He may even have said, 'Dean,' but hav ing Just seen her and later find ing the envelope and bonds gone I could only think of that one word. 'Dee.'" He sighed. "I didn't know why you'd gone there but I knew Clarke, Delia. I thought he must have become abusive, that you had seen the gun and in desperation used It." "He had to think that. Delia." Murdock said. "He saw youi Clarke mentioned your name or so he thought" "I took the ,un and got out," Allen said. "I was a fool to drop it in that trash can, but I'd wiped it off. I never really thought that I was In danger." "Innocent people seldom do," Murdock said. "No wonder you wouldn't talk." Bacon said. "A fine how-to-do. You won't talk because you're afraid for her, and she holding out because she'll involve you if she says anything." He looked at Hestor. "You never said anything 10 inornaiKe aoout tne envelope or what was in it?" 'I never knew there was an en velope." Hestor crossed her knees and her tone was curt. "If I'd known about the envelope snd inose copies, woman t I have de manded them when I paid over the hundred thousand?" 'I guess you would. Ta be cenUnard by the Misses Owens and Bing ham.
