as you say you ii• i, what did you sec?*’ “It was dusk. 1 could see nothing distinctly, but 1 made out the tig ure of Mr. Raynor, fallen to ihe floor, and 1 saw lying near him a pistol, which I at once picked up." "Why?" "I have told you T don't know. Merely a natural, unconscious action. "Humph—your story is not very convincing. Then what else did you "Almost immediately the lights was snapped on. and I saw Mi.-s Turner, the nurse, in the house doorway." "And Miss Turner s expression her attitude? Did she —er —look surprised?" "That T can't say. I merely saw that it was Miss Turner who stood there, and my glance flew ar once to Mr. Raynor." i “You examined him"" “No; F stood unite still. Mrs. Ray nor. startled by the sound of the shot, appeared at the west door. She had come from the terraot . where w> had tea " "Yes. she told ad that. Recon struct the scene, phase." “Mrs Raynor appeared at tiewest door of the stm parlor, and stool there —as shocked, as petrified, as I was myself." “Next?" “Next I think, Miss llaynor came —brushing past Miss Turner in th*' house doorway, and almost at the same instant Orville Kent appeared at the south door, lie came in and went at once to his sister, and then we all began to make exclamations and ask questions, lint there's the scene—as you call it." "Tin- next thing is." Dobbins proi reeded, “to fix the time accurately. Do you know it. Mr Finley ' , "T know that it was a litth- before seven—ten i ina;- s or so 1 • f..re The hour.

"No." Miss Turner declared, “just go!* g out —and hurriedly. She came ; back, a moment later, and acted sur--1 prise at—at what she already knew ” | “You’re mistaken." said Finley, in i a quiet way. “Your own surprise at i the fearful scene the sudden light I showed you dazed your eyes as well ; as j our brain, and you couldn't tell ijust what ,you did see." j "Indeed I could!" Miss Turner I spoke with decide,; asperity. "Rut I will admit f don't know which of you it was that killed him. Only— I Mr. Dobbins — it must have been one 'or the other, and they both know it.” "I think Miss Turner should ho warned," put in Goddard's stern [ voice, "that she is unwise to accuse 1 any one so definitely of wh.at she i can not prove. As nearly as I can ; karri, the 'scene' which Mr. Dobbins so earnestly desired to have recon structed includes some live or six ! individuals —any one of whom might - have shot Mr. Raynor—beside Hie possibility of his having shot himself. Therefore, Miss Turner, for i your own good, iet me advise you to ; s a y less and think more.” "After T have thought more—T can Foley Pills Reached tin Sore S|>,,i Mrs. Ellen Reighard, South Fork.

Mr, Dobbins. It is quite possible that an intrudj_*r from outside ranie in at the south door, fired the shot that killed Mr. Raynor, and disappeared again, befme Mr. Kent reached the house at all.” "In that ease you would have seen him running away, Mr. Kent?" the detective interrogated. "Not in the dusk." returned Orville Kent, thoughtfully. "I am sure, as I make nut the time of the shooting, lie would have had time to get away before I came to the south door. It was too dark to see a man if he dashed not to —1 im-an by that. if he kept to the shadow of the shrubbery. A man walking straight away from the south door I should probably have seen, hut not one who skulked furtively away—as. of ■ course. I had no thought of looking for any such person.” Every one present except the do teetlve seemed relieved at the sug~ gestion of an intruder from the outside. Goddard followed it up. “As you ran clearly see, Mr. Dobbins the probability of an intrusion by r.n outsider Is too strong to be neglected. I trust, therefore, you ! will thoroughly investigate it before accusing, without sufficient evidence, any member of the household.” “Evidence will he forthcoming. Mr. Goddard. We have as yet scarcely , begun to look for It. Testimony comes first, and we have discovered much already. The time of the shot is accurately fixed by Miss Turner at , five minutes before seven—” "Is her unsupported testimony to l be implicitly relied on. Mr. Dobbins?” (Contiuucn in Our Next Issue)
