CHAPTER 15 THOSE FACING the diningroom door stared at the man who stood there. The others turned their heads and craned their necks. “He's drunk," Enid Sinclair exclaimed in a tone of disgust. But Deborah knew better. Andrew Garvin was not drunk. He was desperate. He uttered a curt, mirthless laugh tn response to his sister's remark. "I was invited to ths party," he said. "Better late than never," said Hector Madnch, rising with a cordial smile. "Gregson, a chair for Mr. Garvin.” “No, thanks, I’m not staying. I saw your lights and decided to see for myself whether people still mingle on a social footing, as friends, as human beings, with their knives and claws sheathed. Bo it’s true. We haven’t all gone back to the dark ages." “If you've only come to wallow in self-pity," began Enid harshly. “Not that," replied her brother. "Each of us makes his own prison. If yours is warm and bright, so much the better . . . I’ve been to Glasgow. I imagine I broke all the speed laws on the way there and back." He looked at David Gray and told the police Inspector: “Your chap, the one on the motor-bike, needs a valve-grinding job. I hadn’t any trouble shaking him off.” "That’s all right," Mid the police inspector in a matter-of-fact tone. “We got reports on you from points along the way. And one of the Glasgow men kept an eye on you." "A burly chap in a bowler hat and a raincoat,” said Andrew. “He didn’t bother to disguise his calling." "He wasn’t supposed to,” Gray responded curtly. It had made Andrew seethe with resentment to be spied on in Glasgow by an obvious policeman in plain clothes. On the drive back to Garnock bls anger mounted. He determined on arrival to go straight to the police station and have it out with Gray. He was going to demand either to be arrested or left alone. He could not stand this cat-and-
mouse game any longer. It was a setback to be told that Inspector Gray, was off-duty; if the matter was urgent he could be reached at the Maclnehes, where he was dining. He had decided to go home and postpone his verbal battle with the police official until the following morning. The bright lights of Hector Maclnch’s house had rekindled his ire. He knew perfectly well that Hector had only invited him to the dinner out of a warped sense of humor, It was even more

Tocsin Subscribers Complain On Service INDIANAPOLIS (ffl - A petition signed by 141 subscribers asked the Indiana Public Service Commission today to declare the area served by the Tocsin Telephone Co. open territory. The petition complained of poor service and asked PSC to give another company a chance to take over the franchise, with a reduction meanwhile in rate charges by Tocsin. \ Youth Killed When Auto Strikes Tree MUNCIE (B — An automobile went out of control and hit a tree near the junction of Ind. 3 and Ind. 67 Friday night, killing Robert Allen Williams, 20, Muncie. Alfred Whitcomb, 20, Muncie, the driver, and Linda Lou Smith, 20, and Judith McCune, Muncie, were injured.
insufferable that, on the heels of Andrew’s refusal, he should invite the very man who was doing his best to convict Andrew of murder. The original list of guests which Hector had mentioned had not included Inspector Gray. The affront was too great to be borne. Moved by wrathful indignation, he swung his car between the gates and halted it in front of the house. He marched up the steps and pounded on the knocker, impatient to tell the police Inspector and his malicious wouldbe host, face to face, exactly what he thought of them. Now, in the presence of this formally clad company, he knew that he had blundered. If he launched on recriminations he would only delight Hector and play Into his hands. As the anger ebbed out of him, it left him drained and weary. Now he only wanted to explain himself briefly and go. “I went up in a hurry to see an art dealer who handles my work. Almost overnight, oils by Andrew Garvin are in demand. People are willing to pay two and three hundred pounds for paintings they* could have had for twenty a couple of months ago." “Well, that’s a bit of tuck, old boy,” said Bill Sinclair, reaching awkwardly for his wine glass. The crass, stupidity of the remark irritated Deborah. Didn’t the idiot realize what the demand for Andrew’s work amounted to? It was not a sincere tribute to an artist It was because it might be the last work of a notorious murderer. If he was hanged or imprisoned tor life there would be no more oils by Andrew Garvin; and the prices would go on rising. “He had already sold two,** said Andrew. “Naturally, I took the money. My creditors win want it But I forbade him to sell any more. He’s crating them and sending them back to me." Deborah saw him reach out to grip the doorknob. He was all in. “Shall we have coffee and liqueurs in the drawing room?" suggested Hector. As they rose, Judith went to Andrew and laid a gentle hand on his arm. “Andrew, you’ll join us?" “You’re very sweet Judith," he answered, looking down at her with a faint smile, "but ... I think I’ll be going. Forgive me for being a boor and spoiling your party.” While the rest of the party straggled uncomfortably to the drawing room, Andrew walked to the hall with Deborah at his heels. She came to his side when he was opening the front door. The butler hovered in the hack-

ground, doing his beat to pretend that he was not there at all. “I almost forgot.” Deborah fumbled In her embroidered evening bag. “I have your lighter. When I stopped at your house that night I carried it away by mistake.** She held it out. He squinted at it. “It’s not mine. I smoke a pipe. I use matches.** “But you handed it to me yourself when I asked for a cigarette." “Did I?" Frowning, he rubbed his chin. “Come to think of it, I believe I did pick it up somewhere about the house. Yes, I remember wondering where ' it came from.". Coming out of the drawing room, Bill Sinclair walked unsteadily over to them. He made some scoffing remark, annoying them both, and Andrew went out abruptly, slamming the door. He was gone before Deborah realized that she still held the lighter tn her hand. She dropped It into her handbag and, for the time being, thought no more about it. Holding her head high, she walked straight past Bill, who followed her closely. They were met at the drawingroom door by Enid. “You make it so simple flor me to find my husband,” she said with mild sarcasm. “I only have to look where you are, Miss Vail." • • • Sleepless in the night, Deborah lay listening to footsteps pacing the floor of the room above her head. The footsteps of Inspector David Gray going to and fro in a restless rhythm. For the time being the police Inspector had gone as far as be could along the road he had set himself to travel. He had made strides in Gamock but there was no future for him here. The next step must be an appointment to the CJ.D. in a largo city like Glasgow or Edinburgh. One day—who could tell?—he might sit in the chair of the man in command in London itself. It ah depended on his handling of his first really important case. H he could convict Andrew Garvin, promotion was certain. And Deborah, lying sleepless in the dark, listening to his ceaseless pacing, hated him for his singleness of purpose. Suddenly she sat bolt upright in bed under the stimulus of a startling thought Perhaps he had another reason for being so anxious to convict Andrew. Perhaps it was to protect himself. Deborah's determined to do something for Andrew Garvin, but what? Continue “The Lonely Man" in (Name of Paper) tomorrow.

Articles Inform Public Os Services Os Lawyer
LEGALLY SPEAKING
(This article is one In a series of 30 by the Adams county bar association presented as a public service by the Decatur Daily Democrat to inform the public of the point out various problems services of the lawyer and to which might arise when competent legal advice is not obtained. These articles are not intended to answer individual problems which require specific advice.) CONSTITUTION OF U. S. The constitution is the fundamental law of our land which protects and guarantees our rights and freedoms as Individuals and as American citizens. The constitution was written in 1787 and went into effect two years later. When the first Congress met. it quickly proposed the first 10 amendments, called the “Bill of Rights." The purpose of the bill of rights was to make quite clear to the governing body the feeling of the people regarding certain civil rights. The bill of rights impressed upcw the federal Congress that it could make no laws infringing upon the rights of religious freedom; freedom of speech; to keep weapons; not to have troops quartered in their homes in peace time; to be secure in their homes against unwarranted searchers; to be tried by jury; and to be protected against cruel and inhuman punishment. . The ninth amendment to the constitution then plainly stated: ‘•.The enumeration in the constitution of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.” Then to be sure that there would be no mistake as to what was intended, the tenth amendment provided; “The powers not delegated to the United States by thte constitution, nor prohibited by it 'io the states, are reserved to the v states respectively, or to the people." This plain guaranty of individual rights was made in the constitution but how was it to be enforced? The courts had for centuries been the means of enforcing rights, inasmuch as rights were either created or denied by law. If the law of the legislature Illegally denied individual rights.
the courts could protect the individual by their refusal to enforce that law. That the constitution created a judiciary independent of both the Congress and the* President was not an accident. This government had been in existence only 14 years when the supreme court refused to enforce an act of Congress on the grounds that the act was repugnant to the constitution. It was the now historic case of Marbury vs Madison that set the policy of the courts in this respect. Two days before his term as President expired, John Adams appointed a man named Marbury (justice of the peace. Thomas Jefferson then became President and ordered secretary of state James Madison not to deliver the commission which made the appointment effective. Marbury then sued Madison to compel him to deliver his commission as justice of the peace. The suit was brought in the supreme court because an act of Congress had authorized the court to hear that particular kind of case. John Marshall was chief justice of the supreme court at the time and it was he who wrote the court's decision. He held that Marbury had been legally appointed by President Adams and was entitled to the commission. However, he shocked the country’s statesmen and lawyers by holding that the act of Congress which permitted tfae bringing of the suit in the supreme court was contrary to the constitution which had defined the original jurisdictiofC bf the court. The constitution that the supreme court had only appellate jurisdiction and could not hear a case in the first instance. Chief Justice Marshall wrote; “The powers of the legislature are defined and limited; and that those limits may not be mistaken, or forgotten, the constitution is Written. To what purpose are powers limited, and to what purpose is that limitation committed to writing, if these limits may. at any time, be passed by those intended to be restrained? ... a legislative act contrary to the constitution is not law . ... The particular phraseology of the constitution of the United States confirms and strengthens the princi-
BATUREAY, NOVEMBER M, Ml
ple, supposed to be essential to all written constitutions, that a is void: and that courts as well law repugnant to the constitution as other departments, are bound by that instrument." Thus an effective check was established by the constitution upon the powers given by it to the Congress and to the President; for when Congress docs pass a law which the supreme court finds to be contrary to the constitution. the court declines to recognize that law.
