CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE Fan got to Mat. pulling at him; calling. He wax still warm. "Please —please not thia. Mat—not this—" She couldn't scream. She had no Voice. Then, her frcnrled faee staring blindly down, she saw the envelope. It was fastened to the undur side of the overturned bench: the beneh Carlie had always said was her dream rug. She could go anywhere on it, she used to say to Garrison. Impulsively, Fan snatched up the envelope. It felt like another pulse beating in her hand. It was Carlie's last message to Mat—or to Richard Garrison. Yea, to Garrison. For on its surface was written in Carlie's dashing hand: “Fur Dick, in case of my death.” Fun listened, tense, and In the silence other ears seemed, also, to be li-tening as the night slid away. She gazed out of the window, a* Breanu had done an hour ago. Central Park drowsed uneasily under an Octolier sky. How had he got back here? How had he escaped? Where were the nxn who would presently knock on hi.- door, demanding entrance, and find her here, splotched with bi* blood? What did it matter? Fan tightened. Someone had eome into the foyer. There was no sound, but she felt an ominou* presence. It couldn't be Doremus. Mechanically, she bent, still holding the envelope, and took up the sword. "Who's there?” She prayed it would be Dick Garrison, Dave Farland, or the newspaperman, Bill Wright. The hand with the envelope went to her breast. A man was framed in the doorway, his jaw and shoulders jutting out. He grinned at her across the narrow room. ‘‘Go easy, sister,” he said. His hard eyes took in the scene. He chuckled. Hi* thumb jerked toward Breanu. "You've spared a lot of people a heap of trouble. Congratulations.” He was staring at the sword in Fan's hand. She dropped it. as if the stained blade scorched her. She had seen thi* man before. He was Fred Sweitzer. It was he who had once known Carlie; who had knocked David out in Fan’* apartment; and who had lieaten poor Anna to death. Sweitzer's greedy eyes were now on the envelope. He held out his hand, nodding with a laconic “Give!” “I didn’t kill him."

“All right, you didn’t, baby. But I want those pajiyrs you’ve got. Quirk!" Sweitzer edged nearer. “No,” Fan raid suddenly. “No!” And she moved away. “If you know what’s good for you, it’s ’Yes.’ girlie.” Sweitzer took hie time. Thia wan easy. But Fan said, “No," again, loudly, aa if she expected help. Sweitzer couldn't let her live after that. Ilia voice roughened a* he sidled after her. “Come on. Give!” Fan looked at hia bulky, advancing figure, and ran behind the other grand piano. Its curvea sheltered her for a second. Desperately, she looked around the room for another refuge. The carved furniture, damask, Italian chests offered no security. If she could only gain time! Her mouth was dry and stiff as she smiled the smile that won over so many men. “Let’s have a drink first Youll find the makings in the pantry." She added, “You and I could be friends over a drink, Sweitzer.” Then she bit her lip. She never should have let him know she recognized him. His square head lunged forward between his wide shoulders. “We’ll drink later,” ho said. He moved around the curve of the piano, opposite the one where Rreaau lay crumpled and so very still. Fan dodged. Then the cruel game began, between her and tha big, nimble footed man in that familirr place, where once she had been so

happy. No matter how fleet she might be in her stained white, he waa ever behind her, almost loitering to give her breath; then after her again, leering, hia big hairy hands out. She thought of the windows. She might reach one of them and jump, rather than give him Carlie's secret But be divined her rush, and blockr-d the way. The door, then, to the dining room—or to the foyer. He was there. But now he wasn't grinning any more. Hie eyes were sinister. He was on the kilL And gradually bo closed in. Fan held the envelope behind her, arching back, but it waa no use. Sweitxer seised her, twisting her limp wrist The envelope fell. He picked it up; thruat it into hia pocket "I hate to do this,” he said, and his eoarae face softened as he looked st Fan. ‘‘You and i might go pieces, if it weren’t for my boss. But it's got to be a suicide pact—see?" He dragged her. unresisting, over to Breanu, and dipped for the sword. “Well leave the details to the eops." >lo held the sword awkwardly, while gripping the terrorised woman. It was a furtive creak from ths dining room that released Fan. Doremus had come home. She saw his brown face staring in at them. “Doremus I” she shrieked. She wrenched the thin blade from Fred Sweitxer, pointing it at him. “Oh. Lawdl” mumbled Doremus, his rolling white stare on his dead master. Then he was kneeling there; moaning. Fan stood protectively over them, her steady hand with the sword, ready to thrust “Get out of here, Sweitxer!" she eried. Sweitzer stepped back from her. He had, after all. the envelope for which his boss had sent him. The door slammed after him. Doremus rose slowly from his knees. His grief flattened his face. “You done kill Mistub Br'nu,” he said to Fan. He never took his eyes of! the sword she held. “No—no, Doremus, I didn't" Tears rolled from her eyes. She let the sword drop. Sweitxer had escaped. Knuckles pounded on the front door. a o a Jane Rider closed her eyes, on the early Sunday train headed for Haverstraw. She never wanted to see David Farland again after the hysterical scene Fan Rubley had made st the party. Why did David have to leave with that womap! It wasn't Breanu's fault He had put himself out to give Jane a wonderful time in bringing her to Richard Garrison's lovely place, among delightful guests. Then suddenly everything had been spoiled. She hadit been quite fair to Breanu in running off with Bill Wright But Bill had coaxed her, and it really had been fun—in a way—to dash in and out of gay clubby spots she had never seen before. Yet under the surface of Bill’s easy manner, Jane had felt hia thoughts wandering. Later, when they were having breakfast, W right had looked drawn and worried. Tatting her hand, he said, “You’re a swell kid 1 Don't get David wrong. This terrible business of Carlie's murder is going to break soon. David wants to keep you out of it." “I’m not a child." Her voice had been petulant Bill had sounded grave. “That isn't the question, Jane. I can’t explain. But I do ask you to keep away from anyone you don’t know very well. What about that writer chap Helm who lives opposite you? See much of him?" Why had Bill asked that? Jane gave a glance at the passing landscape—every acre carrying her nearer home. Her old distrust of Kurt Holm fleshed in nnd out of her mind. Whrt he rm could there have n tilling Bill all that Kurt ‘'•a ,i ... . <....» a~»rinr her s
