SYNOPSIS Seifert Vail, the most unpopular patient at exclusive Sherwood Forest Sanatorium, is murdered. Two wounds are found on the body; one apparently from a sharp weapon and the other, a dull, rusty instrument. Dr. John Calvert and Mark Hillyer, playright and patient, agree that the wounds could have been caused by a pair of scissors. Felipa, the maid, discovered the body when she went into Vail’s room to turn off the phonograph. Vail, a former opera singer, broken-hearted over the death of his wife, had a habit of repeatedly playing the record “Waiting For You,” sung by himself. Dr. Calvert claims Vail had been dead an hour before the phonograph started playing. Vail shared a cottage with Willis Clendening, Milton Cross and James Ruxton. Ruxton’s nephew, Loren, and Dr. Calvert are rivals for the affections of Sue Faraday, Mark's nurse. Ruxton had changed rooms with Vail the day before the crime because the former's room had a private entrance and Vail expected a visitor he wanted to receive secretly. A letter the victim received from New York is missing. Sheriff Finn asks Felipa how she knew Vail had been murdered when he had been covered and the wounds were not visible. She appears to be hiding something and, next morning, does not appear at breakfast. CHAPTER XIII “Are you sure Felipa’s not in her room?” I asked. “I looked in before breakfast,” Clendening said. I began to feel uneasy. “What time does she usually have breakfast?” I asked. “At some ungodly hour,” he announced. “She gets up about 6.30, makes her bed and is back from breakfast, usually, before any of us are up. I’ve never known her to be late before.” “Do you mind if I call the office and find out whether she’s in the servants’ dining room?” The two men looked at me curiously. The color began to drain from Cross’s face. Clendening nodded a silent assent, and I picked up the telephone. The clerk on duty in the lobby promised to inquire about Felipa and call me back. I sat down beside the telephone and was waiting for it to ring when James Ruxton returned from breakfast. He raised his eyebrows as he saw me. “Good morning,” I said. “Have you seen Felipa this morning, Mr. Ruxton?” He thought for a moment and then shook his head. “No, I have not.” He glanced at Clendening and Cross and a perplexed frown appeared on his face. “Isn’t she here?” he asked. “No.” I said. Dr. Calvert came up on the porch and entered the living room. He saw immediately, from our troubled faces, that something was wrong. “What’s the matter?" he demanded. The telephone rang and I picked up the receiver quickly. The clerk said. “Felipa hasn’t been in the dining room this morning. Is she—” I did not wait to hear his question. I turned around and said, "Felipa hasn’t been seen this morn- , ing.” Dr. Calvert almost ran to her room. "The little fool!” he muttered. Clendening sprang to his feet. “She's run away!” he cried. “I might have known she would!” We could hear the physician hastily pulling out the drawers of her bureau. In a moment he came out into the living room. He said, “Some of her clothes seem to be gone." Clendening walked to her open door and looked in. He turned to us with a puzzled expression. “Did you see anything on the table?” he asked Dr. Calvert. “Nothing except her alarm clock,” Nk doctor answered:

Violence flared otl the ntilitiaguarded waterfront -bloody battleground of the marine strike. A sailor was shot. Vandalism anti pillage broke out in wide-separat-ed sections of the city. Striking marine workers and teamsters attempted kitinapings. Non-striking truck drivers were stopped, and slugged. Trucks were overturned. Drivers were, turned back from the city's three arterial highways after being stopped and intimidated by sullenfaced union teamsters. Fresh vegetables disappeared from grocery stores. There was

Clendening, frowning, passed his hand over his eyes. “That’s funny.” he said. “I looked in her room when the breakfast trays came, and I’m sure there was something under the clock—a piece of paper. It caught my eye because it was fluttering in the breeze.” The doctor shook his head. “It wasn’t there when I went in. Maybe it blew on the floor.” We were all gathered in the doorway by then. Dr. Calvert got down on his hands and knees and looked under the bed and the bureau. He arose, dusting his hands, and shook his head.

“Nothing there,” he said. "You must have been mistaken.” “Look!” Clendening said. “The window!” I followed his pointing finger. The table, on which the alarm clock was still ticking, was directly in front of one of the windows and the curtain was blowing gently into the room. “The screen's raised!” Clendening cried. I noticed then that there was two feet of space between the window sill and the bottom of the screen. » » » When I arrived at Mark’s room, promptly at 10 o’clock, I found him and Sue engaged in an animated discussion of Vail’s murder. To be more accurate, Mark was discussing it and Sue was listening. “Hi!” Mark said, grinning at me. “How’s the assistant sleuth?” “Fine,” I said. “Hello, Sue. I see he’s broken down your resistance.” She smiled and said, “I can't prevent his talking, can I?” “Listen to her,” Mark jeered. “Pretending she’s just humoring me! You know darn well you’re just as interested as anyone in the sanatorium. You wouldn’t be human if you weren’t.” Sue became serious. "I am interested, of course,” she said, “but it isn’t amusing to me, as it seems to be to you. It frightens me.” “Nobody’s going to bump you off, sweetheart,” Mark said. “There's no reason to be scared.” “Perhaps not,” she said. She stood up abruptly and said, “Don't you want to go out on the porch?” "No,” he said, "it’s going to be another hot day, and it's cooler inside.” “Have you heard the latest?" I asked.

Within a

Mark was suddenly alert. “No,” he said. “What is it?” "Felipa’s disappeared,” I said. “No!” he cried. Sue looked startled and surprised. “She ran away lajt night.” I con tinued, and I told them what had happened at the cottage that morning. When I had finished, Mark nodded slowly. “Os course, the sheriff didn’t think of having her watched, even though he knew she was frightened and lying,” he said. “He probably drove her away with his bullying,” Sue said indignantly.

“But what about the paper on the table?” Mark said. "Did you see it, Bob?” I shook my head. “I didn’t get a look at the room until Dr. Calvert had searched it. Clendening was the only one who saw the paper, if there was one.” “Hmm,” Mark said. “That’s something more to think about. Have they found any trace of the girl?” "I don’t know. Nobody will talk. I saw one of Finn’s deputies driving toward the village.” “Going to see if she got a train there last night,” Mark commented. “Well, I wish Finn luck. He’s going to need it.” There was a knock on the door and Loren Ruxton’s Voice outside called, “Are you decent?” “No, but come in anyway,” Mark said. Loren looked very cool and handsome in his white linen suit. He smiled at us—particularly at Sue —and said, “Bet you a dollar I know what you were talking about.” “No takers,” said Mark. “Have you heard about Felipa?" Loren nodded. “Yes. Things happen so fast here, I’m dizzy.” “Have you heard whether they’ve found her. Loren?” Sue asked. “Sunk without a trace,” he said. “The sheriff would be tearing his hair, if he had any hair. The station master swears she didn’t take the 10.37 train last night or the 5.03 this morning, and if she went to the village, she walked the whole five miles, because none of the taxi drivers took her. I hear Finn’s asked the New York police to look for her.” (To Be Continued) Copyrfgtt IMS. by Jotr Clayton wn<j Malfolm Lotto DtatHbatcl by King Feature* Syndicate, lot.
