Saint and • c* aur Dinner

Wealthy RALPH CLUNY. 68. was murdered just before he waa to have married frivolous CHERRY LANE. 18. Immediately Cherry disappears leaving a noto for tier sister. FAITH, saying she eould not go on with the wedding. Chenyi elopement with CHRIS WILEY becomes known. News of the murder is kept from Cherry’s Invalid mother, but she knows of Cherry’s marriage. Cherry has been engaged several time* Once she tried to run away with ALBERT ETTELSON a married traveling salesman, and was rescued by her sister and 808 HATHAWAY. 'Faith's fiance and nephew of Cluny. Cherry admits that •Cluny attempted to lorce the marriage but protests her innocence. Faith suspects Chris Wiley thinking he knew that Cluny had willed much money to Cherry. Charles Reilly Neff, who drew up tho will, testifies that Clun.v made Cherry his chief beneficiary whether or not she married him. The eoroner’s jury releases Cherry, out immediately she and her husband are arrested bv DEVLIN deputy district ittoruey. Faith is furious when Gob tells her ATTORNEY STEPHEN CHURCHILL, whom lie employed, thinks circumstances are against Cherry and suggests a plea of self-defense as the best chance of her ircedom, . . Peculiar footprints and a bit of torn strap suggest that the murderer might up a cripple, but this evidence is not presented. The mysterious letter coppied from the original in Bob Hathaway’s neat, mail handwriting, like copperplate engraving, was brief and ominous: “I’ll be out of this hell soon, Cluny, and you’ve got to make restitution. Ten years of hell from which you might have saved me if you had not laid down on the- job. Drunk when you made your summation before the jury. Drunk! Good God! And Q e paid by ten years in hell for spree. cannot give me back the ten years, but I shall hold you to an accounting/for the fortune you took from me to defend me. Defend me! God, I could tear out the bars of this damnali!" place with my bare hands When think of you and the weak-kneed, doddering, drunken defense plea you put up for me. “I shall come out a penniless, prematurely old man. But you shall festore to ine the fortune you took from me for what no right-minded lawyer would consider a defense. If you do not—but you know me, Cluny. You know that if you do not meet my just demands, you will pay. This is the last warning I shall give you. The next tirfie I will warn you face to face. B.’’ “What a horrible letter!’’ Faith's hands quivered away from the sheet with disgust. “It should he easy to trace the writer, darling. Oh, it is a clue, isn't it?” Bob’s face was more grave than she expected it to be. “I’m afraid It won’t bo so easy as it looks, sweetheart. The original letter was written by a very crafty man. Crazy, of course, but crafty with the cunning of the insane. As you see, there is no date. The original was not ever written. It was done entirely in words and letters cut from a newspaper -and parted upon a sheet of plain white typewriting paper, which hasn’t even a watermark to help us.” “But if ’B’ was in prison, and had been defended by Mr. Cluny, it is safe to assume that he was in a state prison here, isn’t it?” Faith asked. •He might have been a federal oner in Leavenworth or Atlanta, or in some other prison,” Bob pointed out. Unfortunately the envelope was not kept.” “But he says this is a ‘last warning,’ Faith reminded him. “Didn’t you find other letters from him?” “Not a trace of one,” Bob answered gloomily. “Uncle Ralph probably destroyed them or there is a bare possibility that he turned them over to the district attorney. I doubt it, though. Uncle Ralph was not afraid C God, man or tho devil. I don’t understand how he happened to file this one. Probably dropped into the tile basket, instead of destroying it.” “The writer accuses your uncle of having been drunk during the trial,” Faith shuddered. “Do you think that’s true?” “I don't believe it for a minute,” Bob asserted defiantly. “Uncle Ralph was never a hard drinker, and l never heard of his being drunk on a case, or any other time. This chap has simply brooded until he’s lost his mind. 1-Ie undoubtedly paid Uncle Ralph a big sum of money, and the

jury found him guilty. The fact that he was evidently denied anew trial indicates that the Supreme Court thought the sentence was just.” “What did Churchill say?” Faitli asked hopefully. NEXT: Faith begins asking questions. (Copyright, 1927, NEA Service, Inc. A/Tartha Lee’s ! Column i She Loves Another * Dear Martha Lee: Four years ago, I was married to a man I loved until he cot to running around with other girls. Now Miss Lee. I have turned against him so I can’t bear to have him near me. But here is the worst of my problem. I left my husband and about five months after. I met a boy I loved dearer than my life. I had applied for a divorce at the time. He has never said 60. but the way he looks at mo I know he loves me and he told his sister that if I got free, he was going to make me his wife. Afterwards though, my husband (I was afraid to resist him) made me give up the divorce proceeding and go back to him. ,He is insanely jealous of me and mean as a dog. Now the other man is wonderful to his mother and sister. When we are near eaoh other, neither says a word, but we both know. What shall I do? WORRIED HELEN. You’ must work out this problem without reference to the other man. If you Intensely dislike you husband and are sure your love for him will not revive, I think you do him and yourself a wrong by staying with him. . However, don’t leave him because you think the other man will come to you. Your imagination may be fooling you into thinking he loves you dearly and you might be disappointed there. Anyway, you should give no thought to a future with this man until you have freed yourself from the man to whom you are married. He Doesn’t Ask for Dates Dear Martha Lee: I wonder if I am too independent. My mother and ' are pals and she has taught me not to wear my lieart on my sleeve. I have a girl friend | who has a wonderful brother. He asked his sister to ask me to go to a mnsicalc with them and with another young fellow. It made me mad that he didn't ask me himself so I said “No:" He will never ask me for a date, but seems to be very interested in me when wo are alorie. The othfr night he brought another girl to a parly that I attended and while I didn't have any right to care. I surely did! Now he isn’t sny. so how do you explain his actions? MORNA. I should say he just isn't interested in you—only as a friend of his sister’s. The fact that he takes other girls places and doesn’t try to make specific engagements with you, simply shows he doesn’t care to. I think, as you are interested in him, you might avail yourself of your only opportunity to interest him by accepting even when it means being only part of a group. She’s Lonesome Dear Martha Lee: I am a young mother, 25 years old with two wonderful ehildrcn. I have been divorced from my husband for three years and since then have never gone out with any one exeeot my own people. Now Miss Lee. would there be any harm in my occasionally accepting invitations from some of the young men friends who once in a while ask me to go out v-ith them? I get awfully lonesome, being nly with my folks here, but 1 don’t want to do anything that would give any one grounds for taking my babies away from me. JUST LONESOME. I am sure it could cause no adverse comment for you to accept the occasional invitations that you speak of. If your divorce were just pending, it would be different, but under the circumstances of Your freedom and the time that has elapsed, no one could cause you any inharmony in this regard.
