SYNOPSIS Seifert Vail, former opera singer, is stabbed to death in Lakeside Cottage of exclusive Sherwood Forest Sanatorium. Vail brooded constantly over his wife’s death. He continuously played the phonograph record “Waiting For You,” his wedding theme sung in his own voice. This record was playing at the time of his death. A maid discovered Vail’s body when she went into his room to turn off the record. Willis Clcndening. Milton Cross and James Ruxton, the millionaire, shared the cottage with Vail. Ruxton's favorite nephew and heir, Loren Ruxton, and Dr. John Calvert are rivals for the affections of Sue Faraday, a nurse. Mark Hillyer, the playright, crippled from arthritis and bored by the monotony of sanatorium life, welcomes a little excitement. He sends his secretary, Bob Fowler, to investigate the trouble at Lakeside Cottage. It is discovered that Vail's room has a private entrance which opens directly on the grounds. Dr. Calvert claims Vail had been dead an hour before the phonograph started playing. Sheriff Dave Finn arrives. Ruxton changed rooms with Vail the day before as Vail was expecting a guest he was anxious to receive secretly, which the private entrance in Ruxton's room afforded. Clcndening discloses that Vail received a letter from New York two days before his death. The police locate some photographs but no letter. CHAPTER IX “Vail must have destroyed the letter.” Clcndening said. “It was in a plain white envelope with the address typewritten.” “Maybe if some people weren’t so nosey, he might have kept it,” Finn answered resentfully. He laid the photographs on the table and we crowded around. "Anybody know who this is?” he asked. Dr. Calvert said promptly, "Vail’s wife. She died two years ago.” “Oh,” said Finn. I stood looking at the photographs, The woman was small, blonde and smiling. She had a pretty, spoiled mouth. For a long time I stared at her dimpled face and her soft, white hands, exquisitely posed. I had expected beauty; this was only I rettiness and youth. I could not identify her, somehow, as a figure of tragedy. A vague feeling of disappointed surprise took possession of me. These photographs seemed to invalidate the romance Vail had built up around himself. When I turned away, Dr. Calvert vas explaining that he had known Vail and his wife in New York, where Vail had been his patient. It •vas he who had obtained a reduced rate for Vail at the sanatorium, for the singer had lost almost all of his money in the stock market. But Vail, never a grateful man, had complained bitterly about the service given him. The deputy came out of Vail’s room again, and this time he carried a small, nickel-plated revolver. “Look what we found, chief,” he said. “Where was it?” “In Vail’s bureau, under some clothes.” Finn took the revolver in his hand and broke it. “Clean," he said. "Looks like it’s never been fired. Did you find any cartridges?” "Nope, and believe me, we took that room to pieces.” Finn reddened. This final complication seemed too much for him. He looked as though he were about to • ent his disappointment and confusion in an outburst of rage. “If Vail was going to sec somebody he was scared of, why the ceuce did he leave his gun across t lie room, and unloaded, too?” he a; ked. The deputy very quietly backed into Vail’s room. “It don’t make sense!” Finn wailed. “It don’t make any sense at all!" While Finn was fretting about the revolver, the photographer ar-

to make their getaway. Inspector William Motnsen. head of the institution, said he believed a woman smuggled the! saws to the prisoners and waited j for them outside. The escaped felons were: Fred Achtziger, serving two years for malicious destruction of property. Clarence Adams, serving three years for check forgery. William F.

rived. He was a small dandified Frenchman with a little black mustache and black shoe-button eyes. He bowed to us with dignity. “Hello, Jean," Finn said. “I want you to take some pictures for me.” "With pleasure, Mr. Finn.” he replied, bobbing his head politely. He followed Finn into Vail’s room. Presently we heard the report of his flashlight gun and saw a flare through the transom. Acrid smoke seeped into the living room. Ruxton rose wearily and said, “I am going to my room to rest, doctor. It has been a trying afternoon. The sheriff may come in if he wishes to question me further.” He left us. Wc said nothing while we waited for the sheriff. When he came out. Dr. Calvert

said, “By the way, sheriff, I suppose you've looked for fingerprints on the phonograph record and door knob?” “Sure, one of my men did that,” Finn answered. “There’s plenty of prints, all right, but the way things are breaking for me, I bet every one of them turns out to be Vail’s.” He stood in the center of the room for a minute, pulling his mustache. Then he said, “I want to talk to the maid.” "I'll call her,” Dr. Calvert said quickly. He walked to Felipa’s door and knocked. A frightened voice asked, “Who is it?” "It’s Dr. Calvert, Felipa,” he said. “The sheriff wants to talk to you.” Slow, dragging footsteps crossed the room. The key grated in the lock, and the door opened. Felipa Ramos appeared, red-eyed from crying. There was more than a hint of Indian blood in her swarthy skin, her blue-black hair and her high cheek bones, but she was young and not unattractive. She was a Mexican, and she was homesick for her own mountains. Later we learned that she had built up a small bank account in the village, increasing it slowly month by month, hoping to save enough to return to her country. She stood in the doorway for a moment, trembling Her eyes shifted, and it seemed to me that there was something evasive in her attitude. A determination to keep out

of trouble. I suspected that her fright had its basis in self-interest rather than in the memory of her recent experience. The sheriff, more at ease now that he was questioning an inferior, said to her curtly, "Sit down.” The doctor mgved toward her, intending, I suppose, to assist her to a chair. She moved more quickly, however, and it seemed to me that she had instinctively shrunk from him. The sheriff stood over her, rocking silently on the balls of his feet. His fists were doubled up behind him. "You found Vail’s body, didn’t you?" he said, "Yes, sir.” “Tell me why you went in his room.” “After the rest period, Mr. Vail’s

machine start to play, the same thing, over and over, and Mr. Cross he ring the bell for me. He say go tell Mr. Vail he should change the record, it is making him crazy. “When I knock on Mr. Vail’s door there is no answer, and I think maybe he cannot hear me with the musics playing, so I open the door. The shades on the windows are down, and the room is very dark. I call Mr. Vail, but he make no answer, and I think maybe he has gone to sleep again. I go across the room and turn off the machine, then I call him once more. “It is very quiet in the room. I cannot hear his breath and I am afraid. Something has happened, I know. I feel it. Then I walk to his bed and look at him, and I know he is dead. Somebody has kill him. I cry out and run out of the room, and then Mr. Ruxton and Mr. Clendening come.” , Watching her closely, I had a definite impression that she was acting. Her account seemed practised and glib. 1 wondered if, in all the time she had been shut up in her room, she had rehearsed it. "When did the phonograph start?” Finn asked. “At the end of the rest period.” “Were you awake during that I time?” “Yes, sir, I was in my room reading.” (To Be Continued) CooyrlrM. 1933.
