CHAPTER XXXV "Miss Montague," Mark said, “this is Dr. John Calvert. You may have heard Mrs. Vail speak of him.” She looked at the doctor and then •t Mark. She moistened her lips. “No, I haven’t,” she said. “I asked Dr. Calvert to come here so that we could all be convinced that you’re not Mrs. Vail,” Mark continued pleasantly. “He was Vail's physician in New York.” “She isn't Mrs. Vail,” Calvert said. Miss Montague turned haughtily to the sheriff. “Are you satisfied now?” she demanded. * “Oh, no,” Mark said softly. “You haven’t quite explained yourself, Miss Montague. There was five hundred dollars in Vail's room when you went in, and it wasn’t there when his body was found.” The woman’s face grew pale. Her skin looked greenish under the powder. The mask of youth dropped from her, leaving her an aging, unbcautiful woman. “It was in large bills—very easy to trace,” Mark added, watching her. “Well, he promised me money, didn’t he?” she cried angrily. “It was as much mine as his I I knew how he was getting it!” “So do we,” Mark said. “He was blackmailing Dr. Calvert. Mrs. Vail told you about it, didn’t she?” Miss Montague hesitated for a moment. “Yes,” she said in a low voice. “Francine showed me a letter the doctor wrote her.” “Mark!” John Calvert cried. “She does know!” His voice rang triumphantly. “I can tell about it now.” “It will be better evidence if Miss Montague tells us,” he said. Again the woman hesitated, and this time the sheriff prodded her. “Come on,” he growled. “There’s a grand larceny charge against you if you don’t talk.” “When Francine left her husband," Miss Montague said, “she took ten thousand in Liberty bonds from the safe in their apartment. She told me they were hers, that Vail gave them to her before they were married. “Just after she got to Europe she got this letter from the doctor. 1 He and Vail had been playing the stock market, and they had to put ; up more margin just after Francine i left. The doctor said he went to ' Vail’s apartment and Vail took an : envelope out of the safe and gave : it to him. Vail said there was ten thousand in Liberty bond 3 in it. i The doctor was to take it to their ' brokers. “Well, Dr. Calvert wrote Fran- i cine that he didn’t open the envelope 1 until he left Vail’s apartment. There ; was nothing in it but some blank 1 paper, he said, but Vail wouldn’t believe him. He said Vail acted like ( a wild man—threatened to have him arrested unless he promised to ' pay back every cent. I “The doctor had heard Vail say , once that he'd given his wife some ' bonds, and he wrote to her thinking J maybe she had taken them when .-he sailed to Europe. He asked her if she had taken them to write and 1 tell Vail. But in the meantime, the ! doctor paid Vail some money, and 1 once you start paying blackmail, j you never finish.” Dr. Calvert nodded in bitter confirmation. “Our brokers sold us out because we couldn’t put up more margin,” he said, “and it made Vail almost insane with anger. I acted like a , fool. I thought a scandal like that would ruin me professionally.” “It wasn’t the loss of the money,” j Mark said. “Vail learned just about ’ that time that his wife wasn’t com- 1 ing back to him, and he took it out I on you.” ! “Why didn’t Mrs. Vail help him?” 1 Sue cried. “If they were her bonds, ' why didn’t she tell him she had ; taken them?” Elaine Montague smile patroniz- 1 ingly at her. “My dear child,” she 1 said, “Francine Vail disliked Dr. | Calvert. She wouldn’t lift a finger : to help anyone she didn’t like. She 1 used to laugh over it, thinking of Dr. Calvert paying back that ten < thousand dollars.” She looked 1 archly at John Calvert. “I shouldn’t ' oe surprised if she’d been disap- : pointed by him.” \ Sue looked at the doctor. There were tears in her fine eyes. “Oh. John,” she said, “how cruel women have been to you!” But all his despondency was gone. He smiled at her radiantly. He looked young and attractive again.

“No, only one woman," he said. “It doesn’t matter now.” J “You might have trusted me, ’ John,” Mark said. “I should have told you both, but the truth seemed so unbelievable.” The sheriff looked at him with a perplexed frown. “It don’t make ' things look any better for you,” he ; said. “It gives you a real motive.” Nobody spoke. It seemed so ap- \ parent to all of us that the only thing John Calvert had been concealing was the reason for those payments to Vail and that the sheriff’s accusation was utterly absurd. He himself seemed to feel that, too, for he turned suddenly and angrily on Miss Montague. “I guess you wanted some of that blackmail money, didn’t you?” he demanded. “That’s why you wanted to see Vail?” Before she could reply, there was a knock on the door. Mark said, “Come in,” and as the deor began to open, I saw Loren Ruxton. “Hello, Mark,” he said. “Did you want to see me?” “Yes, thanks for coming over,” Mark said. He gestured lazily toward Elaine Montague. “I thought you might like to meet an old friend, Mr—Rivers.” For a moment Loren stood gaping ludicrously at Elaine Montague, and she returned his astonished stare. Furiously then he turned upon Mark. His dobonaire manner was gone, and his face, flushed and twisted with anger, was no longer handsome. “What business is it of yours if I am?” he snarled. “You admit, then, that you’re the man who ran away with Vail’s wife?” Mark asked. Loren started toward Mark’s bed so threateningly that Finn stepped between them. “I don’t admit anything!” Loren shouted. “Who are you to question me, you darned busybody?” The sheriff said to Elaine Montague, “How about it?” She nodded. “He’s Mr. Rivers,” said Mark, “and he’s something else, too. He’s the man who murdered Seifert Vail. Arrest him, sheriff!” Loren’s frightened glance darted from Mark to Dave Finn. Fear constricted his throat so that he could only whisper his denial. “It’s a lie!” he said. He looked pleadingly at the sheriff. “I ran away with Vail’s wife,” he said, “but I didn’t kill Vail.” His voice rose hysterically. “He can’t prove it! Nobody can prove it!” “So it’s proof you want,” Mark said. “I can furnish that!” There was something terrible, remorseless, utterly convincing in his unshakable calm. Automatically the sheriff put out his big hand and, seizing the cuff of Loren’s coat, twisted it tight. “Let me go!” Loren cried. “What are you doing?” “Just makin’ sure you’re here when I want you,” Finn replied grimly. “Picture the situation, sheriff,” Mark said. His voice was low and colorless. “The first time Loren visited his uncle here, he discovered that in the same cottage was the man whose wife he had stolen—the man who had hunted him through Europe to kill him. But he didn’t dare stop his visits. He was always in need of money, and he wanted to inherit his uncle’s fortune. As months went on and Vail remained in ignorance, Loren’s confidence grew, but he couldn’t escape that fear that some day Vail might discover who he was—and use that revolver in his bureau drawer. “Then another factor entered the situation. He met a girl here and fell in love with her. Discovery now meant not only physical danger, but the probability that he would lose her if she learned how he had treated Francine Vail. His fear of Vail became an obsession, and it’s fear that makes men murderers. The idea of murder becomes less and less horrible as we consider it. It grew in Loren’s mind. He evolved a crime that he thought was perfect—so perfect that even now he challenges me to prove it. “Following that plan, he stole the overalls and hedge shears from the tool house—easy enough for a person who had the run of the grounds at all hours. He took them just in case he should have to kill Vail. Then, unexpectedly, the crisis arrived. He learned that Vai! was exjecting a visit from his wife. He had to act at once and he did. “We know from hi* own admission that he was in the woods behind Lakeside Cottage that afternoon

when Vail was stabbed to death in his bedroom. He changed there into the overalls, strolled across the lawn, entered Vail’s room and murdered him. He had time to remove the overalls and throw them in the lake with the shears before Sue arrived to keep a date with him. “It’s a lie!” Loren cried. “Francine Vail was in Europe! Why should I think she was coming here?” “Vail obligingly told you when you got him drunk on the night of the dance,” Mark said. “Os course, neither V’ail nor you knew that Francine had died and that the woman who wrote to Vail, using her name, was Miss Montague.” Loren’s face was haggard. His eyes swept our faces. None of us could look at him. “Sheriff,” he faltered, “you don’t believe that, do you ? You don’t call that proof?” “I’m still listening,” Finn answered. “The day after the murder,” Mark continued, “Loren lied to me. He had no alibi, and he tried to create one. He said he was with Sue when Vail was killed, although she didn't leave here until half an hour after the murder. No one had accused him. No one had the slightest suspicion of him, but nevertheless because he knew his guilt, he felt that he had to account for that half hour. He asked you to back up that story, didn’t he, Sue?” The girl’s eyes dropped. She nodded miserably. Suddenly Loren’s cringing terror left him. He straightened his shoulders and looked at Mark triumphantly. "How do you account for the fact that I took a photograph of the murderer entering Vail’s room?” he sneered. The sheriff exclaimed, “Yeah, how about that?” Mark smiled. “I wondered when you’d come to that, Loren,” he said. "It was a better alibi than the first, wasn’t it? But that’s the thing that’s going to convict you.” Loren’s face went white. “After Loren had lied to me,” Mark said, "afterward, mind you, he had some photographs developed, and one of them showed a man in overalls standing beside Vail’s door. Immediately Loren saw a perfect alibi in it. He dropped the first one, then, and told us he had taken the photograph at the time when he cnew Vail was murdered. But we have no one’s word but his that he took the photograph that afternoon. “The truth is, he took a roll of films two days before. He photographed his uncle and the cottage. He said he spoiled the whole roll, but the druggist’s clerk who developed the two rolls remembers that one picture of the first wasn’t spoiled. It was the picture Loren showed us—a photograph of an actual gardener who was working beside the cottage that day.” There was a moment’s silence. Then Mark went on: “One final proof: this morning an attempt was made to poison me. Someone substituted a salt cellar filled with arsenic for the cellar on my breakfast tray. Why ? Because I was getting dangerously close. Because Bob was about to go to New York to find the woman who visited Vail—the woman Loren and I believed was Francine V’ail.” He paused and with slow emphasis concluded: “Except for Sue, Bob and I, no one in the sanatorium but I-oren Ruxton knew Bob was going to New York.” A look of horror grew on Loren Ruxton's face. He shuddered. His band went to his collar, as though it were choking him. Finn reached into his pocket. His handcuffs clinked as he pulled them out. He slipped them on Loren’s wrists. “1 arrest you for murder,” he said. Loren winced at the cold touch of the steel. He turned to Sue. “Sue,” he said, “it’s a lie, every word of it! You believe me, don’t you ? Don’t you, Sue ? Tell me you believe me!” She looked at him with eyes misty with tears. “I don’t know what to believe,” she said. He turned back to the sheriff. “Let me call my uncle,” he said. “I’ve got a right to do that.” The sheriff looked questioningly at Mark. “After all," Mark said, “Mr. Ruxton should know. Why don’t you tell him. sheriff?” (To Be Continued) CcDT?ifht. 1133. bw Joan Clayton anti Malcolm Logan Distributed 0; King Facturaa indicate. Imm.
