It is brought out that Pfyfe had forged Alvin Benson's name to a check. Paula: Banning admits having loaned Pfyfe her jewels to put up with as secur- ity. Leacock confesses to the murder, but Vance tears the confession to shreds, exposing it as a lie to protect Miss St. Clair, NOW BEGIN THE ‘STORY e ., CHAPTER XLIV “If it wasn’t so fantastic, I'd say Leacock started out to do it, and found it already done,” Vance said. “And yet, that’s about the size of it. It would account for Pfyfe's seeing him there, and for his secreting the gun at Miss St. Clair’s the next day.” The telephone rang: Ostrander, wanted to speak to the district attorney, Markham, after a short conversation, turned a dis- gruntled look upon Vance. “Your blood-thirsty friend wanted to know if I'd arrested anyone y: He offered to cunfer more of his valuable suggestions upon me in ca: I was still undecided as to who was ty. “I heard you thanking him ful- somely for something or other. « « . What did you give him to un- derstand about your mental state?” “Tha: I was still in the dark.” Markham’s answer was accom- panied by a sombre, tired smile. It was his way of telling Vance that he had entirely rejected the idea of Captain Leacock’s guilt. and held Le Major went to hi out his hand. “I know how you feel,” he said. “This sort of thing is discouraging; but it’s better that the guilty person hould escape altogether than that innocent man should be made to fer . . » Don’t work too hard, and don’t let these isaynalntencats get to you.

I may be able to help you —later on.” With a friendly, appreciative bow to Vance, he went out. sat in silence for sev- eral_minutes. : “Damn it, Vance!” he said ir- ritably. “This case gets more diffi- cult by the hour.

Let him be happy: for 1 day at least, I’ve a notion he may be most usefrl to us, pining away in his lonely cell like the prisoner of Chillon.” Markham put down the telephone without a word. More and t had noticed, he was becoming ine clined to accept Vance's ete This attitude was not merely result of the hopeless confusion in his mind, though his wi probably ‘influenced him to some extent; but it was due in large measure to the impression Vance had given him of knowing more than he cared to reveal. “Have you tried to figure out just how Pfyfc and his Turtledove fit into the case?” Vance aske “Along with a .few thousand other enigmas—yes,” was the petus lant reply. “But the more I try to reason it out, the more of a myse tery the whole thing becomes,” “Loosely put, my dear Marke ham,” criticized Vance. “There are no mysteries originating in human beings, y’ know;. there are problems. And any problem a nating in one human being can solved by another human being. It merely requires a knowledge of the human mind, and the application of that knowledge to human acts, Simple, what?” ’ He glanced at the clock, “I wonder how your Mr. Stitt is i along with the Benson and on books. I await his report with anticipat’ry excitement.” This was too much for Mark! The wearing-down process. Vance’s intimations and veiled in- nuendoes had at last dissipated his self-control, He bent forward and struck the desk angrily with his hand, “I’m damned tired of this supe. rior attitude of yours,” he com- plained hotly. “Either you know something or you don’t. If you don’t know anything, do ine the fav- or of dropping these insinuations of knowledge. If you do know any thing, it’s up to idee to tell me, “You've been hinting around in one way or another ever since Ben- son was shot. If you’ve got any, idea who killed him, I want to know it.” He leaned back, and took out @ cigar. Not once did he look up as he carefully clipped the end and lit. it. I think he was a iittle ashamed at having given way to hig anger. 3 Vance had sat apparently uncon- cerned during the outburst, At length he stretched his legs, and gave Markham a long contemplative look, “Y’ know, Markham old bean, I don’t blame you a bit for your un-. seemly ebullition. The situation has been most provokin’. But now, I fancy, the time has come to put an end to the comedietta. I really i ’ know. The ost int’restin” +He stood up and yawned, “It’s a beastly hot day, but it. must be done—eh, what? ¢ ‘So nigh is grandeur to our dust, So neareis God to man, When duty whispers low, Thou must, The youth replies, I can.’ “I’m the noble youth, don’t y’ know. And you're the voice of duty —though you didn’t exactly whis- per, did you? . . . Was aber ist deine Pflicht?_ And Goethe an- swered: Die Forderung des Tages. But—deuce take it!—I wish the mand has come on a cooler day.” He handed Markham his hat. _ “Come, Postume. To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpoce under the heaven.* You are throug’: with the office for- today, —tinform Swacker of the fact, will you?—there’s a dear! We, attend upon a lady—Miss St. Clair, no less.’ Markham realized that Vance’s jesting manner was only the mas- querade of a very serious purpose. Also, he knewv that Vance would tell him what he k-.ew or suspected only: in his owr. way, and that, no matter how circuitous and unreasonable that way might appear, Vance had excel. lent reasons for following it. : Furtherr-ore, since the uameal og of Captain Leacock’s purely ficti- tious confession, he was in a state of mind to follow any suggestion that held the faintest hope of getting at the truth. He therefore rang, at once for Swacker, and informed him he was quitting the office for the jay. : dn ten minutes we were in the subs way on sur way to 94 Riverside drive, * *This quotation from Ecclesiastes reminds one that Vance regularly read the Old Testament. “When I weary cf the professional liter'ry man,” he once said, “I find stimula- tion in the majestic prose of the Bible.
