CHAPTER XXVII At that moment an unexpected visitor arrived—William Anderson, the business manager of Sherwood Forest. He was suave and smilipg, as usual. “Good afternoon, Mr. Hillyer,” he said. ‘‘Good afternoon, Mr. Fowler." He turned back to Mark. “You are feeling well, I hope.” ‘‘Fine," said Mark. "Sit down.” Anderson said, “May I have a word with you in private?” I went out and waited in the corridor, talking to one of the nurses, until Anderson left five minutes later. When I returned, Mark said, “My services don’t seem to be appreciated. Anderson’s after me to quit my snooping now." “Really?” I said. “What did you tell him?’’ “I denied everything,” Mark grinned. “I was amazed that he thought I was a detective. I pointed out that I couldn’t move from bed and asked him how he got the idea that I was interested in Vail’s murder. But I couldn't break him down. That man wouldn’t lose his composure in an earthquake. He apologized, said he was mistaken and was glad to hear he had been misinformed, and left. He didn’t believe a word of it, naturally.” "And now, of course,” I said, "you couldn’t be bought off for a million dollars.” • • • That evening after dinner I met Loren in the lobby. I inquired about his unele’s cold and was told it was improving. We chatted for a few minutes and then Loren said: “Sue and I are going to the movies tonight. Why don’t you come with us?” "As a chaperone?” I laughed. Loren smiled and said, “No, we’d Mke to have you. Or maybe, being in the theater, you look down on the movies.” "Not at all,” I said. “I’m interested in movie technique. If you really want me, I’ll be glad to join you.” “Fine!” Loren said. “I’ll pick you and Sne up here at 7.30." He left me, whistling the tune that was at the moment being played and sung by every radio performer. I watched him go, speculating about the reason for his wholly unexpected invitation. It was chiefly to find out why he wanted me that I had accepted. Perhaps, I thought, it was because of Sue. He had been seeing her at every opportunity, and they were being talked about a good deal. The fact that John Calvert also liked Sue gave, the gossip an additional fillip. In my room, changing my clothes, I compared the two men. Loren was undoubtedly more superficially attractive, but there was something too practised in his manner toward women. Too many of them, I felt, had liked him—or his uncle’s fortune. Dr. Calvert was often curt and cold, but he seemed to me much more of a man than the rich man’s nephew. Still, the choice was Sue’s, not mine. Loren arrived before her, but she did not k ep us waiting long. She came hurrying down the hall, looking prettier than ever out of uniform. When she greeted us, she somehow made me feel that her radiant happiness was due to me alone, and I am sure Loren received the same flattering impression. It was not intentional coquetry, but merely a delightful way she had of establishing a separate, secret intimacy with everyone. The night was almost as uncomfortable as the day had been. When we were in the car—all sitting on the front seat—Sue sighed and said: “I wonder if the heat’s ever going to end.” "The paper says it will, tonight or tomorrow,” I said. “There’s a big storm coming across the country and the heat wave is already broken in the middle west.” “How’s Mark bearing up under it?” Loren asked casually. “All right,” I said. “He’s forgotten about the heat since—recently, I mean.” “I understand,” Loren said, laughing. “But now that it’s all over, he must have plenty of time to be comfortable.” “I haven’t noticed it," I said. “Have you, Sue?” “Oh, he’s much more cheerful than he was when he came here. Wasn’t he a terror at first? I was scared to death of him.”

“1 hear Mark’s still busy detecting,” Loren said. I smiled privately. This was the explanation of my presence. Loren wanted to pump me. He wasn’t very adroit about it, I thought. I lied to him and said, “Oh, no. Why should he be?” “Clendening’s still stewing about it," Loren answered. “He’s certain Joe isn’t—” “Oh, please!” Sue interrupted. “Can’t we forget that for one night ? It’s obsessed everyone here since it happened." "I’m sorry, Sue,” Loren said. “I promise not to say a word more about it tonight. First person to mention it has to pay for sodas after the movies.” I paid for the sodas, hut not be-

cause I mentioned the murder. We all avoided the topic and, as always happens in such circumstances, I am sure we all thought of it a great deal. During the movie, which was not very amusing, I wondered why Loren wanted to know about Mark’s investigation. Once more my suspicions of him recurred, though I tried to forget them. If it had not been for Sue, it would have been a dull party. The predicted storm arrived the next morning. I stood on Mark’s porch, delighting in the cool southwest wind, the storm’s outrider. Mark’s bed had been pulled out and he sat, silently watching the approach of the rain. We could see it coming miles away, and hear the reverberating thunder. First the most distant ring of hills was blotted out, and then the next and the next. Finally we could see the veil of rain itself, sweeping magnificently toward us. It came very quickly and suddenly it was upon us, drumming on the roof, blowing in our faces, pelting on the thirsty earth and the parched trees and grass. The air was cool and it had that delightful freshness that comes when rain washes it. Mark and I drew in deep breaths of it, and Mark said, "I don’t think I ever really saw the mountains bsfore.” We could see them only in memory now. The rain had hidden them, and the highest were in the midst of the black clouds that darted tongues of lightning. Thunderstorms, like the ocean, always frighten me a little, and are consequently fascinating. We both stared out before us until Mark’s telephone rang. I went inside and answered it. “Hello,” an agitated, breathless voice said. “Hillyer?” “This is Fowler,” I said. "Can I give him a message?” “This is Clendening,” the voice said. "Come to Lakeside right

away. I’ve found something very important. Come right—” > There was a sound like a sudden i exhalation of breath and then a ' loud thump. I shouted. Hello, > hello!” but there was no answer. The I line must have gone dead, I thought. I jiggled the receiver. The operator ; answered. “I was cut off from Lakei side Cottage,” I said. “The line’s still up.” he answered. "What’s up ?” Mark called. “Clendening called,” I said. “Ha : wanted me to come right over; said he'd found something important, I Then I heard a thud and I couldn't i get him back. Lord, Mark, 1 m > afraid something's happened to ' him.” , , „ "Get Calvert and run right over, ■ he said.

I ran down the corridor to Dr. Calvert’s door and knocked. “Come in,” he called. He was sitting at his desk. "Hel- I Io,” he said, and then, as he saw my : face he added sharply, “What’s wrong? Not Mark?” “No,” I panted. “Clendening. Something’s happened to him. He was talking to me on the phone when his voiee suddenly stopped and' there was a sound as though he had fallen.” The doctor had already reached for his emergency bag. Before I had finished speaking, he had started for the door. “Mind coming with me?” he asked. “I may need you.” I had to walk very fast to keep I pace with his long strides. Passing i the desk in the lobby, he said to the I telephone operator, “Get a nurse to Lakeside right away.” As we stepped out on the porch one of the taxicabs from Cold Vai- I ley drew up. The door opened and a woman, with her coat collar pulled up and her head bent, ran up onto the veranda. She almost collided with me, and as I stepped aside I caught a glimpse of her face. I turned and stared at her as she ran past and into the building. “It's Felipa!” I exclaimed. He, too, I noticed, was startled by her sudden reappearance. “Yes,” he said in a low voiee. Then, as the taxi driver put his car in gear, Dr. Calvert leaped dowa the steps and called, “Taxi! Wait a minute." We scrambled inside and the doctor said, “If you’re going back to the village, will you drop us at Lakeside?” “Sure, doctor,” the driver answered. A minute later we stopped in the road in front of the cottage, and in the pelting rain the doctor and I ran for the house.
