CHAPTER TWENTY TURKE “Mr*. Hatterick. think: did Juliet 1 Garder tell you that Crystal Hat- 1 terick wa* murdered”' th* coroner continued. ’ Rue wa* on oath; and the qnea- • tion permitted an honeat answer. "No," »he aaid clearly but held her ] breath for the neat quotcon. Guy wa* purple and, at that I stare. could do nothinf. An inque*t , i* not a trial, and there ar* lenten- 1 cie*. "Did ah* tell you who murdered 1 Crystal Hattenek?” "ian't It poaaible, judfinff fram 1 your knowledge of th* situation, that Juliet Garder had *om* *videne* bearing importantly upon the 1 murder, if it wa* murder, of Crystal Hattenek?” Guy got up and aat down again. Ru- said: “I don't know.” But the point had I wen made. Ru* wa* dismissed. A nurse from rhe hospital, trim and acrubbed)>«kih|r m tailored street clothe*, gave Rue a recognizing little n «l a* she paused her. and went to the witness chair Sh* told of seeing Julie at lunch the day of her death and that she was in good spirit* and ' that there had beet* nothing that she knew of to suggest tuicide. "You talked with her at lunch?”. "Yes” "Did she mention the police in-' qutry into the death of Mrs. Crystal Hatterick?” "No." "Did sh*—did you have reason to believe that she believed Mr*. Hattenck had been murdered?” "No,” said the nurse, Elizabeth D- nney, after a moment. Th* coroner frowned "But ah* did seem to be in good spirits?" "Yea.” "Nothing at ail to suggest suicide?” 1 "No.” She, too, wa* dismissed. It wa* not quite noon when th* verdict was returned, and it was 1 that Juliet Garder was the victim ' of murder at the hands of a person ! r person* unknown. In the verdiet,, naturally, nothing wa* said of Cry*-1 1 tai Hatterick That inquest would ' come later; that they believed her ' murdered wa* an open inference. | That noon the papers mad* official statements. Both women had been 1 murdered. I But there wer* as yet no arrest*. 11 • • • II It wa* that night that, beside* 1 the columns devotc-d to th* inquest, 1 a curious small story found it* way I to the newspapers A bartender in a little restaurant and bar on a back street not far 1 from the Hatterick house claimed ' that on the day of Julie's death a girl much resembling her pictures ' and wearing a plain brown hat and coat had come into the restaurant 1 and had had two cocktail* The first on* she had poured into the potted ‘ palm near h*r table; it wa* why he had remembered her. The second I one she drank. The «tory, it developed, had J reached the police and the newspa- j < pers byway of an ezeited bus boy . < who had telephoned to both, saying I that the bartender, seeing a picture 1 of Juliet Garder in the paper, had > commented on th* liltemwa. But the bartender's story, amplified under police inquiry, waa actually not am- < phfied but the reverse. He wasn't ' sure it was the girl; the restaurant 1 side had been dark because it wa* a I dark day and. in th* slack time be- 1 tw.-en lunch and dinner, not lighted. - And »b* bad been alone. I

Guy *ntd h* intended to build upon when it came to a trial. It wa* that night, too. that Rue asked Brule to send Alleia away. She did more then aak, ahe demanded it-shaken by her own merit woe, really, beraue* of Andy. That night a* aho entered th* litda guest room Brule called to her from hi* study neat door, and sh* want in. Guy had just gon* away after a long talk with Brule. Brule aaid abruptly: "Sit down. Rue— you’r* not forgetting what I told you about not seeing Andy?” She had not seen Andy, racept at the .nque*t oneffy, that day. Brute** straight black eyebn w* made a line arms* his face He went on brusque ly: "Not that Andy iant *ll right; he is. But just now—" Again an unospected current of rage caught her. "Don't you think then, just now, |it would be better to send Alicia away?” | Instantly that impenetrable mask *<emed to slip over Bru!*'* face, ' there was a moment of *ilencc while he watched her. Then h* aaid: "I •ee. So that's the way th* land he*.' i Who told you?” It wa* like Brul*. She would meet hi* own method of attack. “You were honest enough about our marriage; I believed you. But you didn't tell me you asked me to marry you because of— Alicia.” Hi* eyes narr wed a little. ”1 suppoec it waa Alicia who told you Well—you want to know the 1 truth, and I'll tell you the truth. I { did marry you because of Alicia ” He leaned back tn hi* ehair and ( waited for what she might say. And there was enough she wanted to say A very good of fury, of , accuaation, welled up. clamoring to ( be spoken, to be cried out angrily. Humiliation ha* it* own special cut- j ting power, and she felt that keen edge ao acutely that it was like a ' physical wound But there were things Rue had , learned about self-eontml. She said at last slowly: “You’ve not failed in any way to . keep th* terms of the marriage you offered me. But now that I know the truth, I cannot have Alicia in the house. If sh* stays her* I must ' r °" — i Where?" It confused her; brought her up . •hort to regard the practical aspect 1 , of it. "I think I could find work. I've ‘ done so before ” “Not if I refused to let you return to the hospital.” "I don't think,” said Rue slowly. ( “that you would be ao ungenerous.” , "In any case you've forgotten the police and our present situation You can't go away. Or at least if you did there would be a lot of todo on the part of the newspapers—comment and speculation. And in all ( probability a policeman or two t would go with you. You wouldn’t much like that." "It can't— last forever." "Look her*. Rue," said Brul* suddenly. "Are you in love with Andy? You’d better tell me, you know." He paused and then went on: "He’s ' been making low to you, hasn’t ho? I asked you that once before. Ok” —h* put hi* hand up toward her in a quick gesture aa if to check word*

Well, just now, I mean do as I say. Remain here yourself, of course, and Alicia will remain in the house. Don't see too much of Andy ju*t now." I Brul* was always elever about getting, in one way or another, the thing he wanted. "Why don’t you want me to see much of Andy”' It wasn't jealousy. Rue knew that, therefore sh* could ask it •'Newspapers.” said Brul* promptly. “Talk. We are very much —too much—in the public eye just now.” "But I should think Alicia's presence here—” Sh* cheeked herself. She leaned forward. Angers tightly interlocked. "Brule, why did you think Crystal wa* murdered? You must tell me that much. Why did you think it ncce»*ary to—actually to marry someone else in order to protect Alieia in case the inquiry into Crystal's death ewr arose? What happened before Crystal's death* What had Alicia to do with it? Why—" “Wait a minute. Who told you all this?” He paused, and as she didn't answer, he went on quickly and angrily: "It doesn't really matter, of course, who told you. I can guesa. But get these facte straight, Rua. I did not know Crystal wa* murdered —and thus there would be no reason at al! for me tn—marry you to prevent talk and suspicion touching Alieia. That's sheer nonsense.” “Yoii went immediately to Alieia the night th* inquiry began Th* night w* were going to the opera and you sent Andy to take me." She said it with a kind of impersonal detachment ; a mere stating of facts. Brule rose, paced impatiently up and down the small nig and paused in front of her to star* angnly down at her. "Now listen to me. Rue. I did gn to see Alicia that night. And w* had talked of Cnrstsl's death. But understand thia: in the beginning, at the time Crystal died, 1 really thought she had either killed herself or had made what she intended to be merely an attempt at auieida -and the attempt had turned into the real thing and she died. That's what I really thought." (To b« continued) M Mtgear «J Kb#r' J Dtff'ntoMd I* ft.ac
