ocrosan 5. 1952 Murder In Duplicate

That only postponed things - perhaps only by a few minutes. How long. Jim asked himself helplessly. could they drive about outer Iondon with s murdered man for ,oompanyi' -

Nevertheless, he drove on. There was nothing else to do. Somehow they must get rid of, Hamilton's body . . .

They must get rid of the car, too. The murderer would undoubt- edly have given the police full dc- taiis of it. including the number. At this instant, a police cordon was probably tightening inexor- ably around them. In some office at Scotland Yard. quietly efficient men would be studying a wall map of the city. One of them would draw a circle on it. And. in a mat- ter of minutes, roads and streets leading from it would be blocked.

' .'iii'n abruptly pulled the car in- to the side, where trees shadowed the pavement.

"we've got to go on foot." he slid, "The "car is too dangerous."

Mary half-looked over her shoulder. She said, in artremulous whisper: "What about - hima

"we'll leave him in the car.

"But they'll trace - "

"If my guesses are right." said Jim grimly, "they've done that already -- thanks to the cold. cal- T”M1

all this. They'll have full parti- culars about the car. We've got to abandon it." He took her hand, and helped her out-. "Come .on. Mary." : t

For the hecond time that night, luckiwu with them. It w a mat- ter of split seconds. Th y hadn't gone more than a few paces when they heard the roar and throb of second car travelling at high speed. This one was approaching from the opposite direction.

CHAPTER SIX Continued

The trees which overhung the pavement fringed what seemed to be private grounds. There was I low wall. Jim seized Mary by the waist, and hoisted her bodily up- wards. He saw her balance for a moment on top of the wall, a sha- dowy silhouett , and then disap- pear on the ot or side. He gripped the wall and heaved himself over. The approaching car roared near- er. There was” the harsh sound of brakes swiftly applied. The car seemed to ,skid violently towards the wall behind which they crouched. There was a sudden sil- ence. The engine had been cut off.

They heard heavy footsteps.

nd men's voices. There seemed o be two of them.

one of'thein raised his voice sharply. "rhis is the car all rightl"

The footsteps sounded closer. There was the noise of a car door being opened. Again silence. Jim could imagine the scene. Two men in uniform. peering into the back seat of his car and discover- ing Hamilton's body.

one of them spoke excitedly. "I know thisi manl His name's Hamilton. Once a detective, but kicked out.". There was a brief pause. "Shot through the head."

The other man had been inves- tigating the car.

"The engine's warm. PerhsiJ5 they heard us coming. They can't be more than a few feet off.

Jim did not wait to hear any more. He pulled Mary to her feet. squeezed her arm to caution sil- ence, and then began to pick his way among the trees.

It was nerve-racking. went deeper into the wood, the darkness became impenetrable. The ground underfoot was rough and treacherous. Twigs whipped against their faces.

Then, from behind them. they they heard the two men scramble over the wall. A torch flickered between the trees. only a few yards in their rear. simultaneous- ly. from somewhere to their right. a dog began to bark furiously.

It seemed as if they were trap- ped between two fires, but Jim saw his opportunity.

"This is our chance!" He grip- ped Miaryis arm, and whispered fiercely in her car. "it doesn't matter if we make a noise now. they'll think it's the dog. And with luck, the dog will go towards them. Runi" 1

They threw caution to the winds and pushed their way through the darkness and among the trees. Jim bore sharply to his left, to leave both the dog and the men

to be two dogs, both barking ang- rily and bounding through the wood. The bedlam drowned every other sound. Through the trees, they saw lights turned on in a house.

Jim continued to run, with Mary at his side. He ranl in a haif-clr- cle. so that the lighted house was now behind them. His idea work- ed, for in a few minutes they were back at the wall, but about a hun- dred yards from, the spot where they had first climbed over.

Jim raised himself cautiously, and peered across the top. He could see his own car, some dis- tance away, and the police car alongside it. There was no sign of. the men. In the wood. the tumult continued. People were shouting now, adding to the clamour set up by the dogs. He sat on top of the wall, and pulled Mary up. A

moment later they were walking rapidly down the road, keeping ' well in the shadows. If they en-

countered anyone now, they' would appear Just walking couple hav- ing no connection with the ex- citement in the wood . . .

"That's that " , ,'

Ten minutes later. Jim stopped to draw breath. Quiet. respectable houses were all around them, each with its trim, well-kept gar- den. There were still lights in some of the windows. Jim looked at his watch. The time was 11.15. They were on a bus route.

"if a bu comes along. We'll take it," he decided. "lt's the safest way...

"But where are we going?"

"To Frank Welles. to tell him the whole thing." Jim had made up his mind. "We can't go on run- ning round in circles. Perhaps we should have gone to Frank first. If anyone can find a way out of this tangle, Frank is the man."

Jim struck a clenched flat against his knee. "I'm convinced the answer to the riddle lies back in the past - in the original Dor- mer case. Whoever murdered your aunt - I'm sure now she was mur- dered - also killed Smith and Hamilton."

"But why?"

He stared down the deserted. lamp-lit road, his ears strained for the sound or a bus that would take them to a safer locality.

The biggest riddle of all was up- permost in his mind. How had the murderer contrived to poison Smith, under their very noses, and in such a fashion that Mary was bound to be accused? If Frank Welles could only throw some light on that . . .

Mary looked down at the ground, avoiding his eyes. in a low voice. she said: "Do you think we really ought to go to Frank? Oh he was perfectlyysplendid, that first time. when my aunt died. But well. you see, Jim, he's in love with me."

Gibson-Macllae Wedding

A very pretty wedding of inter- est to friends in Nova. Scotia. and Prince Edward Island took place in Zion Presbyterian Church, Charlottetown on Wcdnesday,Sep- tember 24 at eleven o'clock, when Anna Mearns, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick F. .MacRae, was united in marriage with Lloyd Norman, son of Rev.

Moral Grounds for Opposing Liquor

3: on. SAM Moiuus (R9Wint9d by Permission from "Sword of the Lord")

Ringgit. afraid if lg Ion moral - m ra respongi- bllity this light. My Bible teach- " 1119. To him that knoweth to do lotid, and doeth it not, to him it in sin (James 4:17). In our Sunday School lesson last Sunday, the man with one talent was condem- ned, not because he had only one talent, not because he misused it. but because he did not use it at all. My Bible tells me that when Jesus comes back and gathers the nations to judgment. He will say: "I was an hungered, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye save me no drink: I was a strang- er snd ye took me not in; naked and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not." "Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me."

It is the sin of omission. It is just as block a sin in the sight of God not to do what you know you ought to do, as it is to do what you know you ought not to do. When you as a preacher. or lay- man, or laywoman sit around and twiddle your thumbs with these

people going to Hell and little children in the condition they are in-when you sit around and look pious and say, "Well, you know it doesn't bother me; I never touched I drop in my life," brother you are guilty of sin in the sight of God. You have a responsibility. "To him that knoweth to do good and doeth it not, to him it is sin."

Same Business

But somebody says, "But under prohibition you had the bootleg- gers, and it is better to have legal dealers than it is to have bootleg- gers." The legal standing of the man who makes the .llquor does not have a thing to do with the chemical nature of alcohol and what it does to the man who drinks it. You can take a bottle of moonshine liquor, made against the law in the river bottoms or up in the hills and sold in a fruit jar in the back alley against the law by the bootlegger; you can" take a bottle of any legally manufactur- ed liquor, put it in a chemical is- boratory, analyze the contents of the two bottles, and the alcohol in both bottles will be identically the same.

Didn't you ever notice that legal liquor will make a man wreck his car the same as bootleg hootch?
