illlF IN M 94S BY AUTHOR CHAPTER THIRTEEN It was just then, by the way, that Oelphine entered my life and the ledroom. I felt something' soft brush igainst my ankles and on suppressing a sharp cry and looking downward I discovered an enormous Maltese tomcat, with blazing green ?yes and battle-scarred ears who ta,lked to the hearth-rug, turned .round twice, sat down and looked &t tne. ' He had apparently drifted silently along the shadows of the hall under chairs and tables and near the wall, so I hadn't seen what was a habitually stealthy approach. And I couldn't get rid of him. I held the door open invitingly and whispered, "Kitty, kitty," and he merely looked disdainful. I went to him and swished with my skirt and he was only slightly entertained. I started to take him up in my hands and he simply lifted one solid gray paw and planted it upon my hand nd firmly put out his claws. He didn't scratch or dig them in, but he gave me to understand then and there that he had little if any scruples. So in the end I let Delphine stay. He took a complete bath, paused to stalk something that was not under the couch and went to sleep in a tight gray ball. 1 moved to a chair, to the sofa, to the bed, to stare down at Craig, and then back to a chair. The trouble was, of course, I knew too much and still too little. It was an uneasy kind of night, wakeful, somehow, and troubled. But nothing happened. Nothing happened really, although once in a lull in the wind and rain I thought I heard quiet footsteps in the hall. The house seemed to sleep, yet there was a listening, sentient quality about it, too, The cat didn't move. My patient slept heavily. The wind creaked the shutter outside and sighed down the chimney. Twelve o'clock came and Drue didn't come with it. Twelve o'clock and twelve-ten, and still she was not there. At twelve-fifteen two things happened. Delphine opened his eyes, opened them all at once without blinking, sat up and stared fixedly at the blank panels of the door to the hall. Just stared at it, for a long time. Then something bumped, hard and sharp, against the door. A long silence followed. I must have got up, for I remember standing very still, listening. There was no other sound, no retreating footsteps, no movement, no voice. Because of this, or because of something less easily accountable, a moment (perhaps two or three) elapsed before I went to the door and opened it. No one was in the hall; it stretched emptily away on either hand with the chairs here and there making heavy shadows. But no one was there. I believe indeed I know that several moments passed, while I stood there. Long enough, at least, for me to discover the rather queer thing I did discover and that was a kind of dent, small and not deep but still a dent, in the wased gleaming surface of one of the panels of the door I stiU held open. Ernest Hayden and family. Mr. and Mrs. Emory Walters and Mr. and Mrs. Pad Parr were in Sullivan Satudray night. Carl Thompson was in Sullivan Saturday afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. Conroe Wyman and Mr. and Mrs. Harold Marts of near Farmersburg spent Sunday with Will and Nina Wyman. ON THE ROAD TO M-fcWfcW.VpV.-ivA.i,JiUA.--c.; ffift -

- DISTRIBUTED BY KING FEATURES It was as if someone had been carrying something (a ladder, fireplace tongs, perhaps a hammer) along the hall and had accidentally bumped it against the door. But people don't carry hammers, or ladders, through sleeping houses after midnight. I was looking at that little dent, touching it with my finger, when a woman somewhere screamed. It was a short, breathless little scream, cut off before it was more than begun, But I knew somehow that it was Drue. I knew too that it came from downstairs. But I don't remember moving, although I do have a dim memory of clutching at the banister on the stairs and of the slipperiness of the marble floor in the hall. The door to Conrad Brent's library was open and there was a light. Drue was there, her face as white as her cap. She had something in her hand and she was bend ing over Conrad Brent, who lay half on the floor, half on the red leather couch. He was dead; I saw that. Drue said in a strange, faraway voice, "SarahSarah, I've killed hhnl" Then there were footsteps running heavily across the marble floor, toward us. Drue heard them, too, and turned; the bright thing in her hand caught the light and glittered. In a time of shattering emergency, action is altogether instinctive. It's only afterward that you question that action and then it's too late because it is already accomplished for good or bad but certainly forever. I reached out and took the shining thing from Drue's hand. It was a hypodermic syringe; the barrel was empty and a needle was in place. Drue was staring down at Conrad Brent, her eyes wide and dark in her white face. She said, in that queer, faraway voice, "I didn't mean to kill him. I was trying to help him. But he he died. ..." I couldn't put my hand over her mouth, for it would have been seen ; the sound of the footsteps had abruptly stopped at the door. I thrust the hypodermic syringe into my pocket and said loudly, to cover whatever JJrue was 'trying to say, "Don't be frightened; we'll get the doctor . . " and turned around. It was Peter Huber who Stood there; at least, it wasn't Alexia who might have heard what Drue said, or Nicky which would be the same thing. Drue shrank into silence; I hoped it wa-priidmce- but-was-afraid-'-it was not. Peter uttered an exclama tion and came quickly into the room. "Sick?" he cried. "Good heavens! He looks horrible. . . ." He stopped beside me, clutching his red dress ing gown over vividly striped pa jamas, "tin 's dead, isn't he? ' Well, I ve been a nurse for a Ions: time; I know death when I see it. But I made sure while he watched me. "Yes, he's dead," I said at last. "What was it? Heart?" "I don't know. -Yes, I suppose so." All three of us stood tlieie for an I Mrs, Dewey Hayden and son, Billy and Jake Hayden, who is on furlough, are spending a few days in this community with the latter's wife and baby and other relatives.

indecisive moment, staring down at Conrad Brent's body sprawled there awkwardly, with his face sunk over one shoulder and hi3 mouth a little open. I remember feeling that I ought to get a towel and tie that square, but no longer formidable; jaw before rigor morti3 set in. And then instantly I thought the. police wouldn't like it; I must touch nothing. Police? But Drue's wild words hadn't meant that she had tnurdered him. I'd thought of murder and police only because Craig had said, there'll be murder done. Craig! I'd forgotten him. "I've got to go back to my patient! I believe Mr. Brent is dead, but call Dr. C'hivery!" I reached the door and thought of Drue. I couldn't leave her there in that room beside Conrad Brent, to be questioned by this young Huber or by anyone else. Not just then. I went quickly back to her. "You go up to Craig," I said. "Stay thero with him." "But I . . ." she began. I interrupted, "Hurry I" I hoped Peter Huber would not notice how urgent it sounded, However, Drtie went. I made sure she was on the way upstairs, then said again, sharply, to Peter, "Get the doctor. I'll stay here." "Wouldn't you rather I would stay with him? I don't mind. You can call the doctor." "No," I said. "I don't know the number. ..." "But the telephone operator . . ." I said again, "Hurry," .'and must have sounded as if I meant it, for he gave me a startled look and went away. I closed the door behind him and went to the corpse of Conrad Brent. "I've killed him," Drue had said, clutching a hypodermic syringe. Presently I found the mark. It was a tiny red spot on his left arm so very small yet, if they found it, what would they say? Everyone in that house knew that the mam who lay there, dead, had come between Drue and her young husband, and now that she had come back he was still determined to give her no quarter. "I've only tonight," she said. Well, perhaps Claud Chivery wouldn't see that tiny red mark. I rolled down the cuff, fastened it and adjusted the brown velvet sleeve of his lounge coat; then X looked around the room. Nothing much was changed since my interview in that room during the late afternoon. The desk lamp was still lighted; the fire had burned down to gray ashes with crimson undertones; the decanter of brandy still stood on the desk-' not, however, on the tray but on the edge of the desk. The room ,was warm and so still that everything' in it seemed to hnvt a quiet, intensely observant life of its own. as if the chairs and books, the coat of arms over the mantel, the objects on the desk, things intimately associ ated with the life of Conrad Brent, were all watching me me and that forever silent figure, irrav-facod and inert on the touch.
