Peter watched Nick Royce, who turned his head, listening to the banshee notes of the approach ing police car. “That is the voice of trouble." he eaid. “From now on, this is every xhody's secret.” Outside, patrolmen who before had kept the curious moving on. were now holding back a swelling crowd. Michael Kilday. himself, sergeant of the homicide bureau, was the first to ptrah hie way into the study. Behind him followed the medical examiner. Three more detectives, one bearing a caAers, completed the party. •‘Hbllo. Peter."

"I don't look at It that way,” Royce fisaisd "Jim was dead. I couldn't help him. And J couldn't keep a story like that out of the papers even If I wanted to." Ho pointed at bis dead friend. "Jim Franklin has been murdered. Every one knows Jim FrankJia. He'd have beea the next governor the state If bo had lived. Ho was Rilled in the study of fashionable fit.

In my own mind, but J haven't bad any luek. so for.” They were Interrupted by a sharp rap on the door. Klld«y opened ft A tall well-built man. whose Intent tray eyes stared beyond the detective to the body on the floor, stood In the do. ay. “May 1 he of some assistance?" _he Inquired gravely. “I’m Milo Dunbar. Franklin and I are—-«>r rather were—partners." Kilday stet»ped aside to »e< him by. There was a suggestion of power tn the reserved dignity of the man's smooth-shaven face. He stopped twslde the body.. Only for an Instant did the firm lines of his mouth relax Into an expressing of pity. Th?n his reserve settled back on his face, like a mask. „ "Have you any Idea who did this thing?" he Inquired of the detective. “Xnt yet." replied Kilday. “But will hare, before long," he promised grimly. Dunbar nodded. Tome to me for whatever help yon need." he said. Kilday gr’maced ruefully. “You can re«t assured we’ll go after the man who did thia We’ve got to." He gave Nick Rnyce a wry smile. “If we don't, every paper In town will be after my. scalp. "And now the biggest help ail of yon can he Is to cipar out of this room until we finish with our investigation. I'll want to talk to all of yon. later, but right now.

"1 didn't mean you. Peter." the tective said. “I'm glad you're here. 11l need your help." “How about meT Nick Royce stopned tn the\ioor. "I'm representing Tonies." \ "DctsMe." growled Kilday. "We ain't let any nf The o’her newspaper boys In yet. hare we?" “None of the other newspaper boys know as much about this as 1 do," re torted Kmce confidently. “For Instance. T could tell you that the murderer wiped hit damrer on that curtain over there, before he ran out the bark door." Kilday examined the dark stain on the indicated curtain. “Rtlrk around If yon want to," he yielded grudging .ly. “But Td have found the mark on • the eurtaln. anyway." Under the sergeant's direction, the minute examination began. The detective with the camera began photographing each detail of the room. A second officer began the painstaking search for finger-prints Apparently, the jmom contained no secrets, aside from rhe body Itself, the stained curtain, and numerous fln-° ger prints which were photographed afler careful preparation. The sergeant had been bent over the table, carefully ecmtlntxing one of the fingerprint specimens dusted for photographing by bls Now he atrahthtened and faced Rmt*. “Who do you think k'liedJhntfminkUn. Royce?" he demanded eiMdenly. “A woman." replied the newspaper man calmly. "Why?" For the first time. Nick Royee answered reluctantly. “That was hia weakness." he admitted grudgingly. “The fact Is too well known to remain a secret long. There have beea a great many women ta Jim's Hfe." Tould a woman have held him by the throaj to prevent an outcry, after the first thrust, until the had time for the second?" Cardigan inquired. With his eves he measured the brawny stxe sf the dead man. “Women can do lots el things we're reluctant to give them credit for" Royce retorted. "And at a time like that, people have umre than their normal share of strength. Nervous «n---ritoment has something to do with It "Re«‘tos." he added aa as afterthought. "how do we know which Mow was stnirk first? Perhaps the deep thrust wg« the first one and the other came Infer when Jim wan weakened and dying. That would eliminate your theory that a woman couldn't have done It." The novelist shook his head, slowly, hia ahagrv hrows knit In a reflective scowl "I float think there was much struggle left Is him sfter that Mow." be said. -It «nst have eome last" “Let's begin at the beginning." KBday suggested. "Too say you ware ta the next room at the time thia happened?” The newspaper WB sodded. "Suppose you ahow ton where you ware standing" the sergeant invited, and Royce cmoeed t 0 th e door leading from the sacristy Into the chinch. "Doctor Abernathy had imne In." he said, -and T was watchtag for our cue to enter. The last T saw of Jim. before the crime, he n» standing right where you are now. I turned my baek to him and was wattaing the ebolr enter, waiting for the *Wvddlng March* * U £LJ ,at Jin wan dead. "And you heard nothin at all ta

the room behind you?" Kllday's voice sounded slightly incrednloua. Royce--shrugged his damper ahoulders. "Tve said that I didn’t, For one thing, they were singing, and the organ was playtag. That would have drowned out any but a loud noise." “Mr. Royce” Kliday'i bland tone deceived no one. “you hadn't, by any chance, quarreled with Jim Franklin, had you?" In spite of the smile of his thin Bps. there wss an unpleasant expression on the newspaper man’s narrow free. “Sherlock." he said, with a mocking bow. "don't tell me you hare Cueased my secret. That's why I was the ty*st man at bls wedding." “Just the sama," Kilday retorted, “you weren’t overcome by grief. You discover the man you any was your best friend, murdered, and the first thing you do is call up your news paper." He turned abruptly to Doctor Abernathy, “Where were you?" “In the church. I was standing at the choir steps, watting for the bridal party." Tould you see this man, atanding here in the door, from your position ta therer The rector hesitated. "I could have." he agreed. “But you see, I wasn’t facing In this direction." “You didn't look over thia way, when It was time for the bridegroom to show up, and be didn’t?" The sergeant had not missed that Instant's hesitation. “Why. yes, I glanced over thia way several times. I didn't understand what was wrong." “Well, when you glanced over here, did you see Royce? That's what Fm asking you. Doctor Abernathy." | “No, I didn't aee him." the rector admitted. “I wasn’t standing where I could be seen from the ehurch." Nick Royce Interrupted. "The door was only open a crack, and I was standing well back." “Yon didn't say that, at first." Kilday challenged. “I took your intelligence too much for granted. Fm afraid." If the officer beard, he gave no sign. ‘‘We’re taking one of the eurtalna out of your study."' he Informed the rector. “The slayer wiped the knife there." "Did you find the weapon?” It was MHn Dunbar who asked. “Not yet. Probably the murderer took ft with him." “And so that convicts me.” Nick Royce Interrupted tronlc*:iy. "Os course Tve had time to run home and bide the knife." “Yon ran outside to get In the back door of the study, didn't you?" Kilday demanded. Then, turning to one •f his assistants. ‘Take a look outside there, Pat Maybe the knife was dropped around there." “You can’t fool old Sherlock." Royce Ironically remarked, and walking to the window, ho watched the detective as ho searched the shrubbery outside for some trace of the weapon. Peter studied the newspaper man’s back with puxxled blue eyes. What was wrong with Royce? Did he really have something to conceal? The thought seemed preposterous. Aa he bad so pointedly made clear, Jim Franklin would scarcely have asked any but his most trusted friend to bo his best man. Where could you make ! a motive for murder out of that? And then. too. where wan the ! knife? If Royee had committed the : crime, how had he been able to dis- ! pose of the knife? No, that didn't fit unless (and Peter entertained slight hope of this) It were found outside by the man Kilday had eent to conduct the search. Peter stepped outside. This was the path Royce had taken, to get from the sacristy to the back door of the study. Except for a few shrubs, he noticed, there was do place the knife might have been concealed on this side of the ehurch. It was different at the back. Standing beneath the stone arclfra of the cloister which connected the study with the rectory, the novelist surveyed the garden. There was ample opportunity to hide daggers here, rives the time. » And Royee had had plenty of that Between tbs time the rector had loft the two men ta the aacristy. and the arrival of the uaher sent by Ambrose Carmody to discover what was wrong, considerable time had elapaed. And what if Nick had not telephoned hia newspaper, after all? What if that were jnat *a subterfuge, hy which ho hoped to explain bls failure to notify aqyone of what had happened? in that event Peter reasoned, the dagger would be found here. Then he turned into the rear door of the study, and hesitated ta the doorway. his restless eyas exploring every detail of the room. The police search bad been thorough, fimal! chance that any detail had been missed. Tat. ta his experience he had occasionally found an apparently trivial, overlooked detail that had become tbo vital else ta the solution of a crime. Suddenly his eysa stopped on the waH. opposite, near tbo deer loading to toe sacristy. Had be found such s etae bort? ' There wss an eager tight dancing behind the bright blue es bls eyaa. Hanging tn a scabbard, not three foot from toe door, was a abort dagger of Oriental design with an sinhoratoty carved handle. Hanging on the wan ta a scabbard!
